What happened

On 2026-09-30 @darklord_gr surfaced that proposal and noted Aave V3 already holds about $306M on Monad, so V4 would be an expansion of an existing Aave position, not Aave's first step on the chain. @darklord_gr's open question is whether V4 pulls that ~$306M over from V3 or whether V3 keeps it. No post in the set states that Aave V4 has been deployed on Monad — the evidence is a proposal only.

Why it matters

It is the concrete development in the Monad cluster this week: a major DeFi protocol proposing to move its newest version onto Monad, with an existing ~$306M V3 position as the base. Attention shape: first post in the cluster 2026-09-28T10:13:31Z by @fomoebdao; peak day 2026-10-01; 23 tracked accounts plus 9 other accounts, across perps_trading (6), general_ct (6), eth_defi (4), airdrops_farming (2). Phase at week end: faded.

Angles

  • Aave governance

Formats in use

  • markdown

Risks

  • Do not frame the $306M as our own data point — our market block is empty for this week, so it is @darklord_gr's figure and is unverified by us.
  • Everything here is a governance proposal. It can be rejected or amended; do not write it as a live deployment.
  • No price talk. Nothing in this thread supports a view on monad:native or any asset.

Robinhood eco is probably the highest r/r bet into the bull imo. My money is on robinhood:0x39dbed3a2bd333467115de45665cc57f813c4571, robinhood:0xe8ffd7e24187f72afb08d75b1bb13088a989a791, and up-2:native. Monad is also worth a look and being slept on.
