cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that Aave V4 has reached a new all-time high in USDC deposits, indicating renewed confidence in DeFi lending. This surge is attributed to Circle's regulated stablecoin and Aave's unified liquidity layer. The increased liquidity strengthens Aave's position relative to competitors such as Compound, Morpho, and Spark.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for AAVE, measured when this story was written up on 29 August 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
AAVE is trading at $122.22 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 39.8%, which is lower than the 4-hour ratio of 46.1% and the 24-hour ratio of 46.4%. This indicates that buying pressure is fading in the short term compared to the longer timeframe. The negative volume delta of -$55,933 over the last hour shows that sell volume exceeded buy volume during this period. Over 24 hours, the volume delta is -$1,422,220, with a cumulative CVD of -$1,870,324, confirming net selling pressure. Net buying occurred for only 10 of the last 24 hours despite a spot volume of $20,304,186 across 225,580 trades.
The latest daily buy ratio of 47.5% sits at the 22nd percentile of the last 281 days, against a median of 49.8% - weaker buying than most days.

Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for AAVE, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 51.3%, making the current 24-hour ratio of 46.4% 4.9 percentage points lower than the weekly norm. Spot volume has also decreased to 0.56 times the weekly average. While the 8-day volume delta was positive at $6,690,243, net buying days were limited to 4 out of 7. The price has changed by -0.4% over the 8-day period, suggesting a relatively stable but slightly bearish trend compared to the recent news.
