Aave, the largest decentralized lending protocol, has made Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) its default infrastructure for all cross-chain operations, following a $292 million exploit on a LayerZero bridge. This incident triggered a major liquidity migration, with about $7.2 billion moving from LayerZero to Chainlink's system. Chainlink's CCIP now handles key functions across multiple blockchains for Aave, signaling growing trust in its security and reliability. This shift highlights a broader trend in DeFi where formal risk assessments increasingly guide infrastructure choices over convenience or partnerships.
