PANews reported on August 21st that lending protocol Aave has officially launched on the Aptos blockchain, marking its first deployment on a non-EVM blockchain. This move is a key step in Aave's multi-chain strategy. Initially supported assets include native USDC, USDT, APT, and sUSDe.

Additionally, the Aptos Foundation will provide user rewards and liquidity incentives to promote adoption, while integrating Chainlink price oracles to ensure market security. As a Proof-of-Stake Layer 1 network built on the Move language, Aptos emphasizes low-latency determinism and high throughput to attract more developers on-chain.
