Aave deployed V3 on Sonic blockchain, expanding to a high-performance blockchain with $15M in liquidity.
The strategic partnership allows Aave to strengthen its position in the DeFi ecosystem and benefit from Sonic's revenue-sharing model.
Aave's move to Sonic marks its first Layer 1 expansion in 2025 and enables users to lend and borrow assets on this high-performance network.
Aave ceased lending services on Polygon's Proof of Stake chain and shifted its focus to Sonic following risk concerns tied to a rejected Polygon proposal.
