Aave launches on X Layer and enables on-chain lending for OKX Wallet users
Key points:
- Aave has launched on X Layer, a Layer 2 solution based on Ethereum developed by OKX. Users of OKX Wallet now have direct access to on-chain lending within the wallet.
- Users can deposit assets, including USDT0, xBTC, and xETH, and earn yield with automatic interest accrual without relinquishing control of their funds.
- Aave has launched on X Layer, a Layer 2 solution built on Ethereum by the crypto exchange OKX, enabling on-chain lending for OKX Wallet users.
OKX stated that the integration allows users to deposit assets, take collateralized loans, and earn interest directly within the wallet. There is no need to create a separate wallet or use bridges.
“With the launch on X Layer, Aave has entered the OKX L2 ecosystem. Everything works directly through OKX Wallet. No permissions, no custody transfer, and no unnecessary friction,” the OKX blog stated.
Aave remains one of the largest DeFi lending protocols. According to DeFiLlama, it currently has approximately $23.8 billion in total value locked (TVL). OKX believes this launch will add liquidity to the network, given that Aave is one of the key protocols in the market.
“Launching on X Layer gives Aave access to a new audience and applications within the network. It will make it easier for users to earn on assets, borrow funds, and build their own solutions,” said Aave Labs founder Stani Kulechov.
Users can deposit various assets, including USDT0, $USDG, $GHO, xBTC, xETH, xSOL, xBETH, and xOKSOL, and earn yield with automatic interest accrual without transferring custody.
Collateralized lending is also available without credit checks or intermediaries. Users can borrow in USDT0, $USDG, $GHO, xBTC, xETH, or xSOL.
Six eMode configurations are already live on X Layer, tailored for different asset types. These allow borrowing up to 88% of collateral value for liquid staking pairs.
This move is part of OKX’s strategy to expand DeFi within its wallet ecosystem. The company is following competitors such as Coinbase and Binance, which are also активно integrating decentralized tools.
In November 2025, OKX added DEX trading to its wallet, simplifying access to decentralized markets across Base, Solana, and X Layer.
