Following this transaction, WLFI borrowed $7.5 million USDT from Aave V3 and transferred the loaned funds to a BitGo wallet.
WLFI has yet to publicly comment on the loan or its exact purpose.
As part of the launch, WLFI agreed to share 20% of protocol fees with AaveDAO in return for access to the DeFi platform’s code. Additionally, AaveDAO will receive 7% of WLFI’s token supply, granting it governance participation in WLFI’s ecosystem.
Market observers believe these moves underline WLFI’s commitment to deepening its integration with Aave’s DeFi infrastructure.
