Aave raises USDT borrowing rates earlier to protect liquidity, lowering the utilization threshold from 94% to 92%.

Aave has tightened borrowing rules for USDT on its Ethereum V3 Core market by lowering the optimal liquidity utilization threshold from 94% to 92%, effective October 21. This change causes borrowing rates to increase faster once 92% of liquidity is used, raising the theoretical rate at 94% utilization from 4.5% to 7%. The move aims to preserve more funds for withdrawals and improve risk management, creating a theoretical liquidity buffer of about 57.8 million USDT. Borrowers currently pay rates close to previous levels since utilization remains below 92%, but the new threshold sets an earlier warning point for liquidity stress.

Regarding Aave's recent changes to USDT borrowing rates, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 24, 2026 23:21 WIB: Among 50 major cryptocurrencies priced on Pluang, only 3 rose while 46 fell today. Notable movers include VET at Rp122 with an 8.02% decrease and a typical hold time of 148 days, DOT at Rp18.678 down 8.00% with a 122-day hold time, and ENJ at Rp447 down 7.79% with a 105-day hold time. Pluang order activity shows heavy selling for VET (88% Sell) and strong buying for ENJ (89% Buy).
