USDC lenders face a weekend price gap in Aave stock-token loans

Aave’s Base hub allows $21 million in USDC loans against Coinbase stock tokens. Frozen weekend prices could expose opt-in suppliers to bad debt.

  • Aave's Base hub allows USDC loans against Coinbase stock tokens, with a $21 million borrowing cap.
  • A 'weekend price gap' risk exists because collateral prices are frozen from Friday to Sunday, while borrowing and liquidation remain active.
  • This gap could expose opt-in USDC lenders to bad debt if the market reopens with a significant price drop and insufficient liquidity for liquidators.
