What Aave is

Aave runs as a set of smart contracts. Lenders deposit assets into shared pools and earn interest; borrowers post collateral worth more than their loan and pay interest that rises as a pool gets more heavily used. If a borrower's collateral falls too far in value, anyone can repay part of the loan and receive some of the collateral at a discount. This liquidation process is what keeps pools solvent without a bank in the middle.

Aave started as ETHLend and relaunched under the Aave name, and in 2020 its original LEND token was migrated to AAVE at a rate of 100 LEND to 1 AAVE. The protocol has since been deployed on many networks, and its versions have added features such as isolated markets for riskier assets and efficiency modes for closely correlated ones.

AAVE holders govern the protocol: they vote on which assets are listed, how risky each is judged to be, and how the treasury is used. AAVE can also be staked in the protocol's safety system, which is designed to cover shortfalls if something goes wrong, in exchange for rewards. The Aave community also launched GHO, a decentralised stablecoin minted against collateral in Aave.

For a buyer, AAVE is an ERC-20 token. Holding it gives governance rights; voting and staking happen through Aave's own interfaces.

How to buy AAVE step by step

  1. 1

    Set up a wallet that can receive AAVE

    Any Ethereum wallet works and the address starts with 0x. Keep a little ETH for fees if you plan to stake or vote. No memo is needed. SwapRocket never holds your coins: they go straight to the address you enter.

  2. 2

    Pick the coin you will swap from

    Card and bank payments are temporarily offline, so you buy by swapping crypto you already hold, such as BTC or USDT. SwapRocket supports 1,000+ assets.

  3. 3

    Check the network and paste your AAVE address

    SwapRocket delivers AAVE as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum mainnet.

  4. 4

    Compare live quotes and send your deposit

    The swap box compares live rates from several exchange partners, with zero added fees from SwapRocket. Send the exact deposit amount to the one-time address shown.

  5. 5

    Receive your AAVE

    Most swaps complete in under 10 minutes, depending on network confirmations. If anything looks stuck, 24/7 live support can check the order with you.
