On the other hand, another address 0xa92 withdrew a total of 50,605 AAVE tokens valued at $6.8 million some 20 hours before.

DeFi token AAVE has actively participated in the crypto market rally with the AAVE price gaining over 142% over the past year. Earlier in March, the DeFi token touched a high of $153.27 before retracing back. Some market predictions also suggest that AAVE will top $200 by September end.
The technical chart shows that the AAVE price has given a breakout from the converging channel pattern and is ready for another 25% all the way to the $168 level. Also, the daily trading volumes have surged by more than 50% which could support the move further. Thus, continued AAVE whale activity can make this possible. World of Charts shared the breakout of AAVE expecting further rally ahead.
Key Developments in the Ecosystem
Aave Labs recently announced its collaboration with MakerDAO for an ambitious project dubbed Sky Aave Force that seeks to bridge the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and DeFi. Commenting on this collaboration, Aave Labs said: “DeFi protocols have matured, showing resilience and market fit. By working together, DeFi can become the backbone of all finance, enabling unprecedented access and propelling new use cases.”
Another major boost for Aave is that Donald Trump’s DeFi project – World Liberty Financial – will be built atop the Aaave and Ethereum.
