🚪 DeFi United — How the Crypto Industry Came Together to Save Aave After the $292M Hack!

After the KelpDAO exploit froze $billions in Aave, something remarkable happened — the entire DeFi ecosystem united to rescue trapped users!

The Problem:
After the hack, Aave's ETH utilization hit 100%. Thousands of ETH lenders were completely stuck — unable to withdraw their funds. Early exits on secondary markets were clearing at a brutal 23% BELOW par — meaning people were losing 23 cents on every dollar just to get out!

The Solution — Built in Under 24 Hours:
Fluid Protocol, working with Lido Finance, EtherFi, 1inch, 0x Protocol and KyberNetwork, built the aWETH Redemption Protocol — an emergency escape hatch for trapped Aave ETH lenders!

How It Works:
✅ Lenders swap their frozen aWETH → wstETH or weETH
✅ Discount of only ~2.21% (vs 23% on secondary markets!)
✅ Single transaction — fast and simple
✅ No governance vote needed — fully permissionless

Results So Far:
🟢 $136 Million processed in first 48 hours
🟢 58,510 aWETH successfully redeemed
🟢 Thousands of users freed from frozen positions

Meanwhile, the "DeFi United" relief fund is growing fast — Aave founder Stani Kulechov personally pledged 5,000 ETH, EtherFi pledged 5,000 ETH, Lido pledged 2,500 stETH, and Mantle proposed a 30,000 ETH loan!
