weETH tops $4B in Aave V3 deposits, becomes protocol's second-largest asset

  • weETH deposits on Aave V3 passed $4 billion, second only to native ETH
  • Deposits grew about 129,800 weETH, or over $350 million, in 30 days — up 10.9%
  • ETH-linked assets now account for roughly 36% of Aave V3's total value locked
  • weETH is deployed across Arbitrum, Base and Scroll, extending its footprint beyond Ethereum
Why it matters: weETH's rise cements liquid restaking as a core source of collateral in DeFi lending and ties Aave's growth more closely to the restaking sector.
