Crypto of the day: Aave (AAVE)
🧠 Technology & innovation
Aave is a pioneering DeFi protocol enabling decentralized lending and borrowing of cryptocurrencies. Initially launched under the name ETHLend in 2017 and renamed Aave in 2020 (which means "ghost" in Finnish), it offers innovative products such as flash loans (instant loans within the same transaction) and its decentralized stablecoin GHO.
Deployed on Ethereum, Polygon, and Avalanche, Aave stands out by offering financial services without intermediaries, leveraging overcollateralized pools and dynamic interest rates, thus favoring mass adoption by DeFi users.
💰 The role of the AAVE token
The AAVE token fulfills several essential functions in the ecosystem:
Security: holders can stake AAVE to secure the protocol and receive rewards.
Governance: participation in voting on protocol improvement proposals.
Supply reduction: when used to reject liquidations, AAVE is burned, contributing to a deflationary mechanism.
This versatility makes AAVE a cornerstone of DeFi.

Bitcoin: whales buy while retail investors flee
The ongoing correction in the Bitcoin market reveals a growing gap between small investors and institutional holders. While retail investors liquidate their positions, whales seize the opportunity to strengthen their exposure.
Opposite behaviors in response to price decline
While Bitcoin’s price is in a downturn phase, investment behaviors diverge radically. On one side, small holders multiply sales, driven by a feeling of fear fueled by volatility. On the other, large addresses — or whales — increase their positions, seeing in this decline an opportunity to strengthen their holdings at a lower cost.
According to data from Santiment, a BTC redistribution is taking place from medium wallets towards the most capitalized addresses. This dynamic, often observed during dip periods, could be the start of a fundamental shift in holding strategy.
Towards increased centralization of economic power on the network
The withdrawal of retail investors from the market is accompanied by a drop in the number of active BTC, an indicator generally interpreted as a sign of accumulation. If this trend continues, it could accentuate the centralization of funds in the hands of a limited number of actors.
Historically, accumulation phases by whales often precede significant bullish movements. Their current behavior could therefore be interpreted as a bet on a future market rebound. Conversely, retail disengagement could weaken the network’s organic momentum by limiting actor diversity.
