Aave (AAVE), a distributed finance technology, has seen its native currency’s price surge to levels not seen since April 2022. The spike to above $173 marks the highest price level since April 2022.
AAVE experienced a steep decline after reaching an all-time high above $670 in May 2021. AAVE has since experienced a major accumulation phase that lasted nearly two and a half years.
This rebound is occurring at a time when the cryptocurrency market is anticipating an upward run, driven by Bitcoin’s recent price increase above $60,000 and a rally involving bear resolve above $64,800.
AAVE/USD has increased by over 172% over the past year, with a 23% increase in the most recent week. The gains are due to AAVE’s entire value locked recovering since its drop to $5.7 billion in January 2023.
Aave’s total TVL has reached $22.1 billion in a year where the decentralized finance market has benefited from an overall rebound amidst increased lending and borrowing. Aave V3, which has been integrated into various market systems, holds significant value.
