AAVE flips Lido across ALL metrics – But is this just round one?

With me

• The AAVE $ 775 billion borrows the volume and the growing dominance of TVL over Lido emphasizes its growing role in providing loans, while the bull momentum signals upwards – if Lido regenerates key support to reverse its descent.

---

Spirit [AAVE] and Folk [LDO] They were the key boundaries in the defi sector, but it seems that one read one of the other across all metrics.

Both have seen remarkable price changes in the last 24 hours, but their activity on the chain is one to learn.

“Another stop $ 1T,” says founder Aave

Aave officially exceeded $ 775 billion in cumulative lending volume, which meant one of the largest milestones in the history of defi.

The borrowing curve of the protocol, as shown in the latest graph, has permanently climbed since the beginning of 2021.

In fact, the founder of Stani Kolekov believe That the protocol is on the way to the way to a violation of $ 1 trillion another. This vision may not be attractive-the protocol shows that a decentralized credit has moved from experimental to the necessary.

And with this momentum, Aave could soon become the first defi protocol that hit the threshold of trillion loans.

Aave overcomes LDO

The data from the token terminal confirmed this significant defi turnover.

Aave overtook Lido funds in the total value of Locked (TVL). In one place Lido commanded 37% of defi tvl, while Aave sat at 24%.

Since July 2025, however, AAVE had 39% defi TVL and Lido dropped to 21%.

The AAVE platform itself was 22% of all defi tvl and almost half, about 46% of TVL inside the credit area.

This output explained this: Lido’s influence disappeared, while Aave’s constant growth since March placed it as a new backbone Defito.

Can, in addition to this leading position in the loan sector and interference, continue the growing LDO included?

Aave vs. LDO graphs compared

At the time of writing a comparison of the price of four -hour chart prices of these two showed that Aave was in constant UPTRED.

This showed a bull structure with higher maximum and net support for trend, which indicated the strength of the price.

Meanwhile, LDO was above the trend line, but lost it, had a hard time. MacD on Aave was a bull, but it was flat for LDO and showed indecision.

Of course, the price is not just about the structure; It’s also about sentiment.

Aave has gained 253%over the last 12 months, while LDO has fallen by 55%.

The first could increase its advantage in the case of trendy support, but in the event of disintegration, the repair could begin. In the case of LDO, the sentiment can move with the trend line again.

Therefore, he was in the lead at the time of the Aave, but soon could decrease depending on the change in LDO replenishment or change macro.
