Aave reported a mixed performance for March 2026, maintaining a nearly 60% market share despite a slowdown in user activity and revenue. The protocol's total value locked (TVL) reached $42.34 billion, marking a 45.45% year-over-year increase, although it fell 5.79% month-over-month. Active loans mirrored this trend, with a 47.32% annual rise but a 6.96% monthly drop. Revenue decreased to $6.64 million, reflecting reduced liquidation and SVR income rather than diminished lending demand. Despite a 26% monthly decline in active users to 114,400, Aave's market share remained stable at 59.79%. The launch of Aave V4 and Aave Pro on Ethereum introduced a modular architecture for flexible borrowing strategies, enhancing both retail and institutional use. Meanwhile, the GHO stablecoin's market cap surpassed $500 million, with transfer volumes reaching $5.34 billion. Capital distribution shifted, with Ethereum retaining over 80% of TVL, while networks like Base and Arbitrum gained traction.
