Aave Launches First Externally Curated V4 Markets with Sentora

Aave's first externally curated V4 markets are now live on Ethereum, managed by Sentora. The active borrowing markets include RLUSD, PYUSD, and OUSD, with governance-approved deployment. Sentora oversees collateral rules, risk parameters, interest-rate curves, and oracle configurations, allowing practical lending decisions while adhering to Aave's governance framework. Aave V4 features a hub-and-spoke model, where hubs serve as the central settlement layer and spokes are specialized smart contracts for market interaction. This structure enables different markets to utilize a shared liquidity pool while applying unique conditions. Borrowers must consider market identity, as two markets on the same protocol may offer varying assets and borrowing conditions. Sentora has also introduced its Risk Radar for the V4 structure, providing tools to monitor borrowing caps and asset usage. A spoke reaching its borrowing cap cannot access additional funds until capacity is freed. This launch introduces new considerations for DeFi users, as collateral choices and market capacity play crucial roles in decision-making. The rollout serves as a live test of the division of responsibilities between Sentora's market strategy and Aave's lending framework.
