Aave’s tokenized stock market is pulling in new users on Base

Three in four borrowers posting Magnificent 7 tokenized shares as collateral are first-time Aave users on Base, as loans climb to $4.08 million Aave has found a new way to recruit borrowers: let them post big-name tech stocks as collateral. Three out of every four borrowers using tokenized Magnificent 7 shares on Aave’s Base deployment are new to Aave on that network. Aave launched its Equities Hub on September 25, 2026, as part of its V4 rollout on Base. Base is the Ethereum layer-2 network incubated by Coinbase . Eligible users outside the US can deposit tokenized shares of the Magnificent 7 companies and borrow USDC against them. The design is deliberately narrow. The tokenized equities can only be used as collateral, so nobody can borrow them.
