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.
EigenLayer is a restaking marketplace on Ethereum that lets ETH validators and LST holders opt‑in to provide crypto‑economic security to external ‘Actively Validated Services’ (AVSs). Participants earn additional yield by subjecting their stake to slashing conditions defined by each module, creating a shared‑security layer similar to Polkadot’s parachains. Mainnet restaking went live in April 2024, and over 4 million ETH had been opt‑in restaked by Q2 2025.
