AAVE at $90—are you going to buy the dip?



In the past 7 days, it’s up 19.74%; in the past 30 days, it’s up 12.58%. With a market cap of $1.38 billion, it remains firmly the top DeFi lending leader, and the 24-hour trading volume has expanded significantly. The candlestick chart tells you this: after falling from $300 to $57, the bottom has been repeatedly reinforced; RSI and MACD have shown divergence signals. So is this move a golden opportunity, or are the whales using good news to distribute?

First thing: Aavenomics 3.0 is here—this time it’s a real buyback

On June 27, Aavenomics 3.0 officially launched.

Previously, the money earned by AAVE went to the protocol; now, all protocol revenue plus GHO stablecoin revenue automatically uses buybacks to repurchase AAVE.

This is the first leading protocol in DeFi history to do “automatic revenue buybacks.”

V4 also launched at the same time: a Hub-and-Spoke architecture plus reinvestment of idle funds for higher returns. RWA is progressing, with a target market size of $4.6 trillion.

Second thing: TVL is $12.5 billion—absolute king of DeFi lending

AAVE’s TVL is about $12.477 billion, with over $1 billion on the Ethereum mainnet and full deployment across other chains.

In the DeFi lending space, AAVE alone takes up half the territory. Compound and Maker are left trailing behind.

Third thing: a technical signal you need to watch closely

Price rebounded from $57 to $95, nearly doubling. Today, it pulled back to $90 on increased volume, and on the 4-hour timeframe a high-volume bearish candle appeared.

The daily chart is still operating within an ascending channel, and the structure has not broken.

After low-level divergence in RSI/MACD, upward momentum is still present.

The pullback is on shrinking volume (even though it’s down today, volume isn’t as strong as during the upswing).

Conclusion: It looks more like a normal pullback, not a trend reversal.

Bulls vs bears—you decide.

On one side (bulls’ story):

Aavenomics 3.0 automatic revenue buybacks—directly bullish.

V4 launched + RWA progressing, potential market size of $4.6 trillion.

Grayscale target: $175—currently severely undervalued.

$12.5 billion TVL—absolute leader in DeFi lending.

Weekly up 19%—the rebound structure remains intact.

On the other side (bears’ truth):

From $57 to $95—nearly doubled, with a huge profit-taking pile.

Failed to break through 95–100 three times; psychological pressure is heavy.

Bitcoin is ranging between $60,000 and $63,000, and the broader market is relatively weak, dragging things down.

DeFi is still suppressed by macro liquidity.

Key levels

Resistance overhead: 95–100 (the bulls’ lifeline) → 103 → 110–118

Support below: 88–90 (current key) → 85 (second line of defense) → 80–82 (strong demand zone) → 66–70 (a strong floor)

For short-term traders:

Wait for a retest of 88–90 to stabilize before entering; stop loss at 85. First target: 95–100—take half off. After a break above 100, chase longs with stop loss at 95, targeting 110–118.

For swing traders:

Wait for the daily close to hold above 100 before going in heavily; use dynamic take-profit to stay in. Targets: 120–150. Don’t let yourself get shaken out by a shakeout. If it pulls back below 85, you can add—this is a high-quality add-on level.

For long-term believers:

Below 90, DCA in blindly in batches. AAVE is a DeFi infrastructure-level asset, with triple catalysts from Aavenomics 3.0 + V4 + RWA. By end-2026, the target is 150–175—betting on a revaluation of DeFi value. But be prepared to hold for 3–6 months; don’t expect to get rich overnight.

AAVE right now is like SOL in 2023—

Everyone thought “DeFi is dead,” but protocol revenue surged + institutions came in, and the price doubled straight from the bottom—then doubled again.

On the day 100 breaks, you’ll realize:

Turns out it wasn’t that DeFi doesn’t work—it's that you didn’t hold. #0成本拿2股SK海力士 #美光市值超越Meta跻身全美前十 $BTC $ETH $AAVE
