When users borrow, their Bitcoin is converted into Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin (cbBTC) on Base and deposited into the Morpho lending protocol. Loans can be managed directly through the Coinbase app. nA minimum of $20,000 worth of Bitcoin is required to initiate a loan, with borrowing limits up to $100,000 and a maximum loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of 86%. Loans exceeding the LTV threshold will be automatically liquidated. The lending feature is available to U.S. users, excluding residents of New York, with plans to support additional collateral types in the future.Aevo Transitions To EigenDAAevo is transitioning its data availability layer from Celestia to EigenDA to achieve tighter integration with Ethereum’s security, lower costs, and near-instant data throughput. With the transition, Aevo aims to enhance performance and user experience. EigenDA leverages the economic security and decentralization of EigenLayer restakers. As an Actively Validated Service (AVS) on EigenLayer, EigenDA provides secure and cost-effective data availability with a throughput of 15MB/s for rollups. Aevo, a derivatives-focused rollup built on a customized OP Stack codebase, operates an options trading exchange featuring an offchain order book paired with onchain settlements. Tradable Brings RWAs To ZKsyncTradable, a private credit tokenization platform, is bringing $1.7 billion in real-world assets onto ZKsync Era. According to data from RWA.xyz, the addition of 27 tokenized institutional-grade private credit positions by Tradable propels ZKsync to become the second-largest blockchain by real-world asset (RWA) total value. The deployment also positions Tradable as the second-largest tokenization platform, following Figure. Tradable bridges traditional asset management with onchain solutions and leverages ZKsync for secure, scalable, and cost-effective transactions. Although the smart contracts have been deployed, tokens have not yet been issued to holders. Tradable is developing a permissioned DEX and has plans to enable collateralized lending in the future.Base 2025 MissionBase released its 2025 mission, vision, and strategy.
