About AAVE
Aave is a decentralised non-custodial liquidity market protocol that participants can use either as depositors or borrowers.As borrowers are able to borrow in either an overcollateralised (perpetual) or an undercollateralised (one-block liquidity) fashion, depositors are able to earn passive income.A complete open source protocol enables anyone to interact on the Ethereum network using a user interface, API or directly with smart contracts.A protocol that is open source means that you are able to create any third-party application or service that interacts with the protocol.
Depositing and Borrowing – AAVE
Deposit : To deposit an asset, navigate to the “Deposit” section and click “Deposit”.Make your deposit and submit it.Following confirmation of the transaction, you begin earning interest on your deposit.It is not necessary to deposit a minimum or maximum amount.Nevertheless, it is important to consider that the transaction costs may be higher than the expected earnings for really low amounts.
Borrow : Firstly, deposit collateral.Then click “Borrow” under the Borrow section to borrow the asset. Calculate the amount you need based on the money you have deposited that will serve as collateral. Rates can always be changed after that as often as you like.If you don’t have enough liquidity or you don’t have a good health factor, you can’t borrow an asset.
We will explain in this article how the AAVE transactions and users were changed, when doing a deposit and borrowing of assets in 2 different ways, for instance when the gas fee is greater than 100(>100) and less than or equal to 100(<=100).
