DeFi lending is absolutely ripping right now 📈

Active loans jumped from $20.1B → $26.1B in just 2 months (June-Aug). That's a 30% surge.

$AAVE is the undisputed king here, controlling ~48% of the entire market. Nearly half of all DeFi loans are running through Aave's protocol.

This tells you two things:
1. Real capital is flowing back into DeFi
2. Aave's moat is massive

If you're not watching on-chain lending metrics, you're missing where the smart money is moving.
