Boosting Capital Efficiency

Aave’s partnership with X Layer is a move towards more effective use of capital and better risk management. The protocol’s Efficiency Mode (eMode) feature works by allowing users to get more loans by borrowing against assets that are highly correlated with their collateral, which is less risky when it comes to liquidations.

Isolation mode is a feature that keeps a check on risk side of new or volatile assets, by only allowing borrowing against the stablecoin side of the equation.

The launch of Aave on X Layer will be the catalyst for growth and wider adoption of the platform. This is because X Layer will provide the necessary on-chain infrastructure and standardization for DeFi.
