🛠️Aave’s Emergency “Self-Rescue”: DeFi Joins Forces to Patch the Gap, Temporarily Stemming Capital Outflows

After the impact of the rsETH incident, Aave is restoring market confidence through coordinated action.
Aave is taking the lead in establishing the “DeFi United” rescue mechanism, which has already received support from multiple parties:


30,000 ETH borrowed (from Mantle)


13,500 ETH donated (from Aave founders, EtherFi, Lido, etc.)


So far, this has covered the shortfall of 43,500 ETH, while the total loss from the rsETH incident is about 68,900 ETH.
Based on market feedback, this action has already produced results:
Over the past few hours, Aave’s capital outflows have clearly slowed, and have not continued to expand for now.
However, the overall effect is still evident:
Aave’s current total deposits are about $28.6 billion, down from $17.2 billion before the incident, meaning roughly 37% of funds have already left.
This incident once again shows a real-world truth:
The security of DeFi depends not only on code, but also on ecosystem collaboration and community consensus.
💡A Heart-Lifting Reminder:
A truly powerful system isn’t one that never has problems—it’s one where, even after something goes wrong, there are still people willing to come together to fix it.
