- TokenLogic’s proposed interest split could reduce some lenders’ interest share by 60%.

- Plasma’s associated revenue component remains conditional.
- Aave TVL stands at $15.36B, down 10% over seven days.
CryptoSlate reports that TokenLogic has proposed a new interest split for
Aave that could reduce the share received by some lenders by as much as 60%. The proposal is framed as an uneven impact, with stablecoin lenders likely to face a harder hit than other participants. The summary does not specify the full rate schedule, implementation timetable or approval process.
The proposal also includes a major revenue component connected with
Plasma that remains conditional. CryptoSlate’s coverage does not provide enough detail to determine what conditions must be met or when that revenue could become active, so the proposal’s broader economic effect is not yet clear from the available reporting.
DeFiLlama’s live data puts Aave’s total value locked at $15.36B, down 10.0% over the past seven days. AAVE trades at $107.85, down 2.74% over 24 hours and 18.17% over seven days, while its market capitalization is $1.67B. Plasma’s XPL token is down 4.71% over 24 hours and 17.70% over seven days, with a market capitalization of $229.22M.
The wider crypto market is also under pressure: total market capitalization is $2.33T,
Bitcoin is down 2.15% over 24 hours and the Fear & Greed index stands at 13, labelled Extreme Fear. The proposed lender split matters because it could change the returns available to stablecoin suppliers, while the conditional Plasma component and Aave’s declining TVL remain important factors to monitor.
Since this brief published about 17 hours ago, Aave (AAVE) has moved from $107.85 to $107.24 — -0.57%.
The chart plots AAVE's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from TLT's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 AAVE ≈ ₦151,051.83 (about $107.24), down 4.2% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 4.2% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
