Another bot also made over 17 wETH, taking advantage of the ENS price difference due to Chainlink oracle lags.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Besides the Chainlink oracle lag experienced during the crash, the researcher also revealed that these tokens, after all, earn very little for Aave. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">DISCOVER: <\/span><a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/new-coinbase-listings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">15+ Upcoming Coinbase Listings to Watch in 2025<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Blame Chainlink or Alts?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Still, AAVE holders must <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/governance.aave.com\/latest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">vote on this proposal<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> before any actions are taken.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, Oracle lags seem to be the main reason why this proposal is being floated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Aave relies on Chainlink, a decentralized oracle provider, for price feeds. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While AAVE crypto also fell during the crash, risks posed by oracle lags create room for arbitrage opportunities that can lead to bad debt, costing the protocol millions, if not hundreds of millions of dollars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The primary reason for this lag and depeg of some stablecoins was due to the thin liquidity, which worsened volatility and caused some assets used as collateral on Aave to detach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Aave took a hit, auto-liquidating roughly $180M of loans.
