Aave V4 has launched an Equities Hub on the Base network, accepting seven Coinbase tokenized U.S. stocks as collateral. Eligible non-U.S. users can deposit tokens representing Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla shares. These tokens provide economic exposure to actual equities held in custody. Users can borrow USDC against these tokenized stocks as collateral. However, the tokenized equities themselves cannot be borrowed, and cross-asset borrowing is not permitted at this initial stage. Chainlink's market data is utilized for the pricing of the tokenized equities. The collateral is valued based on U.S. equity market hours, creating a distinct risk profile for the always-open lending protocol. This development allows tokenized stocks to function similarly to traditional securities, enabling borrowing without selling. Access to this feature is restricted to eligible international users due to the nature of the tokenized securities. This launch signifies a step towards integrating traditional investment portfolios with decentralized finance.

The funds, available to accredited and institutional investors, aim to change portfolio management with smart contracts and stablecoins.
