“Aave’s Native Bitcoin Plan Moves Forward, But Governance Has Questions” — what this page in the network covers. Babylon Labs has proposed integrating native Bitcoin into Aave V4 through Trustless Bitcoin Vaults, allowing users to borrow stablecoins against BTC without wrapping or custodians. The plan, now in the Aave Request for Comment stage, uses a hub-and-spoke design to isolate risks, but faces governance hurdles. Community members have raised concerns about emergency pauses and vault control, and the proposal still requires risk analysis, a Snapshot vote, and an on-chain decision. If approved, it could unlock significant Bitcoin liquidity for DeFi lending while keeping BTC on its native chain.
