Aave vs Sky Lending

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.

Sky Lending is the flagship product of StableLab’s Sky ecosystem, enabling over‑collateralised borrowing of sUSDS and real‑world asset stablecoins. Interest accrues per‑second and can be paid in advance, allowing negative interest or fixed‑term loans. An on‑chain risk oracle adjusts LTV caps daily based on market volatility metrics sourced from Chainlink and Pyth.
