Aave V4 launches on Circle’s Arc network with USDC, EURC, cirBTC and WETH

Aave V4 is now live on Arc, Circle’s newly launched blockchain aimed at institutional finance, stablecoins, and tokenized assets. The deployment was confirmed by Aave Labs and is currently operational. At launch, the market supports USDC, EURC, cirBTC, and WETH. The setup uses Aave V4’s hubandspoke design, with a Core Liquidity Hub feeding multiple lending markets, including a Main Spoke and a Forex Spoke focused on stablecoin borrowing. The move places Aave inside Circle’s institutional ecosystem and reflects early conservative market limits while liquidity develops. Users can access the market through Aave’s interface after the Protocol Security Council lifted a temporary deployment halt earlier in the week.
