Updated: Aug 28 2025Launch of Horizon: Aave Labs has introduced Horizon, a lending platform enabling institutions to borrow stablecoins against tokenized real-world assets (RWAs).
Supported Collateral and Compliance: The platform initially supports collateral from Superstate, Circle, and Centrifuge, with a focus on compliance and real-time valuations.
Market Integration: Horizon allows qualified institutions to access liquidity without liquidating tokenized assets, while stablecoin lenders gain new yield opportunities linked to institutional borrowers.
Security and Risk Management: The platform emphasizes security through non-custodial architecture and transparent governance, with risk oversight managed by Llama Risk and Chaos Labs.
