Aave Dynamic Borrow Limits

Aave is proposing dynamic borrowing-rate limiters for individual V3 reserves. The first stage of LlamaGuard Caps, developed by LlamaRisk and powered by Chainlink CRE, automatically adjusts borrowing room as debt and repayments change. A reserve can borrow within its current buffer; after a large draw uses that room, more becomes available at timed intervals. Repayments that reopen more room than needed can trigger a rapid cap reduction.

The design aims to slow sudden debt growth while leaving routine borrowing available, with integrated institutions and other approved large borrowers retaining a dedicated pathway. Aave V3.8, a security upgrade that adds a reentrancy guard to Pool operations during external callbacks, is also now live across 15 Aave V3 markets. The guard uses transient storage under EIP-1153 to protect Pool accounting when a transaction interacts with the Pool more than once.

Deutsche Bank Crypto Custody Service

Deutsche Bank launched a digital-asset custody service for paying institutional and corporate clients in Europe with support for ETH alongside USDC and EURC stablecoins. The bank manages clients’ wallets and private keys, and customers can access the service through its Autobahn corporate banking system. The initial offering covers custody and transfers only.

The launch follows Deutsche Bank’s October 12 registration under the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation for crypto custody and transfer services. The bank also signed a memorandum of understanding with Deutsche Asset Management to explore cooperation on digital assets. Deutsche Bank's broader roadmap includes tokenization and settlement services.

Den Launches MLS Wallet

Den launched MLS Wallet, a wallet that requires transactions to pass checks by signers, Den’s offchain Guardian service, and onchain smart contracts. The three layers validate transactions independently, so an attacker would need to compromise all three to execute an unauthorized transaction. Policies can set who may spend funds, where they can go, and what approvals are required. MLS Wallet aims to protect against crypto wallet compromises. Its smart contracts were reviewed by Certora and yAudit.
