[ARFC] Deploy Aave v3 on X Layer
title: [ARFC] Deploy Aave v3 on X Layer
Author: @Tokenlogic
Created: 2025-09-25
Summary
This ARFC proposes the deployment of an Aave v3 Instance on X Layer.
Motivation
X Layer is expected to act as both a payment-focused network and a DeFi hub, creating new avenues for user onboarding, real-world adoption, and capital efficiency. Deploying on Aave v3 on X Layer continues the strategy of taking Aave to users. X Layer has the potential to significantly grow Aave’s reach, strengthen user acquisition through OKX's user base, and capture fresh liquidity.
X Layer's vision is to serve as a general-purpose platform for payments and DeFi, connecting users and businesses with on-chain opportunities. The core focus will be on building infrastructure that enhances both financial accessibility and scalable DeFi applications. Aave Protocol will be a key pillar of the X Layer ecosystem.
Specification
The below values are for indicative purposes only, that will updated upon receiving feedback from both LlamaRisk and Chaos Labs.
