AAVE's strong recovery this week, can we still chase it? My answer is more cautious instead.

Many people see AAVE's big weekly gain and start asking if they can still get in. But blue-chip DeFi is different from small-cap altcoins; its real value isn't storytelling, but whether it can sustainably generate income.

AAVE can be understood as an on-chain lending bank: users deposit, borrow, liquidate, and use the stablecoin GHO, and the protocol generates fees and revenue from real lending demand.

This week, AAVE's price range was $70.6~$99.63, up about 26.8% for the week, while both 7-day fees and protocol revenue are growing. It's one of the few coins this week with "strong price and strong business."

My conclusion: AAVE is upgraded to the top priority tracking for next week, but that's not for you to chase highs. Strong coins are most afraid of emotional buying; the truly comfortable entry is still waiting for a pullback confirmation.
