About Aave

DeFi's pawn shop, if pawn shops were run by friendly Finnish ghosts. And the long game: $100 at its first close here (2020) would be about $289 today.

Did you know?

  • “Aave” means “ghost” in Finnish.
  • It started life in 2017 as ETHLend before rebranding.
  • It popularized flash loans — borrow millions with zero collateral, as long as you repay within one transaction.

Trivia for entertainment — the numbers come from our price data; the jokes don't.
