Clever Aave to Matic bridge keeps track of yields
A new type of cross-chain bridge has been invented which integrates the interest-yielding properties of DeFi with second layer solutions for Ethereum. The first Aave-friendly Ethereum to Matic bridge has opened for business, allowing users to port Aave’s interest-bearing aTokens back and forth between the DeFi protocol and the faster, cheaper layer-two network.The bridge was developed and launched by Nick Mudge, Lead Solidity Developer of Aavegotchi. It differs from previous Ethereum to layer-two bridges as it interacts with the Aave protocol to keep track of interest being paid on aTokens....

The Fantom market on Aave v3 adds just $30 each day to the DeFi protocol's treasury; developers are also concerned that the integration creates security risks. On Tuesday, Marc Zeller, integration lead at decentralized finance (DeFi) borrowing and lending protocol Aave, proposed to freeze the platform's v3 Fantom market. Created in 2018, Fantom is a directed acrylic graph smart contract platform that provides DeFi services and on which Aave is currently bridged. Zeller explained the rationale for removing the Fantom bridge:"After the Harmony bridge event and the recent Nomad bridge....
The upswing in alternative currencies is outshining the top cryptocurrencies. In particular, the MATIC, UNI, and AAVE tokens are doing well, whereas the biggest currency, Bitcoin, is still fighting to keep its position above the $20,000 mark. Polygon (MATIC) skyrocketed on July 14 — the day after it was chosen for the Walt Disney Company’s elite business development program. After this announcement, the value of a MATIC token rose 22.5% to $0.711705, the highest price in a month.

"It's a major step forward in multi-chain governance systems," said the team at Aave. On Monday, the first cross-chain governance proposal passed on decentralized finance, or DeFi, borrowing and lending platform Aave (AAVE). According to DeFi Llama, the amount of total value locked on Aave is approximately $12 billion. As told by its developers, a proposal executed on Aave, which is built on the Ethereum (ETH) network, was sent to the Polygon (MATIC) FxPortal. The mechanism then read the Ethereum data and passed it for validation on the Polygon network. Afterward, the Aave cross-chain....
To do anything on Polygon, you'll need MATIC, which isn't always easy to come by from other networks' DEXes. Bridging assets could help solve issues like scalability, speed and high fees. Bridging means users can move their tokens between blockchain networks quickly and cost-effectively.The Polygon Bridge is used for cross-chain transactions between the Polygon (MATIC) and Ethereum (ETH) blockchains. It allows users to transfer ERC tokens and NFTs to the Polygon sidechain through smart contracts.This guide will show you how to bridge Polygon with other blockchains. However, given that....
