According to The Block, on July 30, 2026, Aave founder Stani Kulechov announced that Aave is proposing to deprecate 50 low-adoption asset reserves and 21 expired Pendle PTs, and fully shut down six smaller deployments: Sonic, Scroll, zkSync, Metis, Soneium, and Aptos. This affects approximately $98.1 million in supplied assets and $15.6 million in outstanding debt. The proposal, drafted by risk service provider LlamaRisk and implemented under Aave’s new risk framework, aims to streamline operational overhead and reduce maintenance costs for oracles and liquidation infrastructure. Affected reserves will have new activity frozen and supply/borrow limits compressed; for reserves slated for shutdown, the reserve factor will be increased to 99% to incentivize users to voluntarily close their positions.
