Aave Labs reported that borrowing against eligible tokenized stocks on Aave V4 on Base is approaching $4 million.
Aave Labs reported on October 15 that stock-backed loans on Aave V4 on Base were nearing $4 million. The market lets eligible users outside the United States deposit supported Coinbase Tokenized Stocks as collateral and borrow USDC without first selling the stock exposure.
The figure is a provider-reported activity milestone, not audited loan performance. It shows early borrowing demand for tokenized equities, but says nothing by itself about borrower concentration, collateral liquidity, defaults or protocol revenue. Those measures, and the market’s behavior during a sharp equity move, are needed before treating the balance as durable adoption.
