Aave V3 is the third iteration of the Aave liquidity market protocol, introducing Portals for cross‑chain liquidity, High‑Efficiency (E‑Mode) lending and Isolation Mode markets to compartmentalise risk. The refactor cuts gas costs by up to 25 % and adds real‑time supply/borrow caps that can be tuned by AAVE token governance. V3 is live on Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Polygon, Metis and Base, collectively holding several billion dollars in deposits secured by the Safety Module.
Babylon exports Bitcoin’s economic security to Proof‑of‑Stake networks by letting holders restake native BTC without wrapping. Validators lock BTC in time‑locked UTXOs; mis‑behaviour is punished via cryptographic slashing that burns the locked coins. A Cosmos‑SDK based testnet secured by Babylon went live in March 2024, paving the way for mainnet in late 2025 and integrations with EigenLayer and Berachain.
