- Justin Sun confirms TRON and HTX will inject $20M USDT into Aave V3, accelerating liquidity growth.
- TRON’s $70B USDT ecosystem and low fees position Aave for expanded lending and cross-chain activity.
- DeFi United gains momentum as Lubin, Consensys, and others pledge ETH to support the recovery of rsETH.
Justin Sun said TRON and HTX will supply $20 million in USDT liquidity to Aave’s Core V3 market on the TRON network as the platforms deepen integration. The deployment targets increased lending activity and liquidity while supporting recovery efforts following recent decentralized finance exploits.
Sun disclosed the move in a post on X, stating, “TRON and HTX Global stand together with AAVE jointly supplying $20M USDT to AAVE Core V3 Market in a show of support to bring AAVE to TRON. DeFi United!”
Stani Kulechov echoed the message, writing, “DeFi United,” signaling alignment between the projects. The collaboration links TRON’s stablecoin liquidity with Aave’s lending infrastructure, positioning both ecosystems to expand cross-chain activity under the DeFi United initiative.
TRON Integration and Liquidity Strategy
TRON continues to be a dominant network for transferring stablecoins, especially USDT, whose circulating supply is frequently over $70 billion. It has many millions of active users and is integral to international transaction volumes. TRON has kept its popularity owing to low transaction fees and fast throughput.
There have been lending platforms like JustLend that can even have a higher TVL than Aave. The presence of Aave will allow more risk management tools and lending options for multiple assets on the TRON blockchain.
On a separate note, Justin Sun expressed concerns about WLFI’s governance over its assets and announced a quantum-proof project.
DeFi United Gains Institutional Backing
The DeFi United project by Aave focuses on recovering stolen funds in relation to the Kelp DAO hack, receiving endorsements from various leading entities within the sector. Joseph Lubin and ConsenSys became part of the DeFi United project, with overall funding pledges amounting to 30,000 ETH to aid in stabilizing rsETH.
CoinGecko data indicates that Arbitrum stands out with 30,765 ETH in pending rewards, while Mantle and Aave follow behind. Lido Finance, ether.fi, and KelpDAO are among other contributors to the DeFi United project.
In another development, Babylon Foundation donated $3 million worth of USDT to Aave via deposits. Out of the total donation, $2 million will go towards V3, while $1 million will be for V4.
