Aave And These 2 Altcoins Could Rise As Crypto Market Rebounds
Aave (AAVE), Decentraland (MANA), and The Graph (GRT) have emerged as three altcoins that could enjoy a price surge as the crypto market rebounds. Onchain analytics platform Santiment highlighted a crucial indicator proving these altcoins are worth watching. The market is also enjoying a strong rebound, which could serve as a bullish momentum for these coins.
Aave, MANA, And GRT Heavily Shorted Amid Crypto Market Recovery
Santiment’s analysis noted that Aave, Decentraland, and the Graph are among the top cryptos witnessing short ratios on Binance. The platform added that this implies that liquidations would lead to a massive price jump for them. These short traders could witness mass liquidations soon enough, considering how the outlook for these coins looks bullish with a crypto market recovery underway.
The market rally has been led by Bitcoin’s rebound above $58,000 following the release of the August CPI inflation data. Similarly, MANA and GRT have also recorded a strong recovery and have enjoyed significant price gains in the last 24 hours. Aave’s price has dropped below $150, having risen to as high as $155 this week. However, it is worth mentioning that the altcoin is one of the biggest gainers in the last seven days, with a price gain of over 10%.
Aave’s Bullish Fundamentals Support A Price Surge
Alongside the crypto market rebound, Aave’s bullish fundamentals also support a price surge for the altcoin. The Aave DAO has proposed to onboard Coinbase’s new Bitcoin wrapper, cbBTC, to the Aave v3 protocol. This move is expected to boost liquidity and engagement in the DeFi token’s ecosystem since Bitcoin holders will be able to access the protocol’s functionalities.
The decentralized protocol’s announcement that Ether.fi’s market has been deployed is also bullish for the Aave token and could propel a price surge. This move allows users to borrow stablecoins like USDC, pyUSD, and FRAX against Ether.fi’s liquid staking token, weETH. This follows Aave’s launch of a dedicated market for Lido’s liquidity staking token last month. The DeFi protocol also revealed that the v3 market for Ethena should launch soon enough. The proposal is currently in the final comment period.
The DeFi protocol partnered with Sky (formerly MakerDAO) to launch the Aave Sky Force. This initiative proposes integrating USDS and Savings USDS (sUSDS) on the v3 protocol. Depositors of the stablecoin will be able to earn yields and token rewards, thereby incentivizing them to use USDS instead of other stablecoins in the crypto market, like USDT and USDC.
Therefore, with such bullish fundamentals, Aave could enjoy a significant rally, especially if the market rally led by Bitcoin continues.

Developer Advocates For Pi Network Community To Launch Liquidity Pool To Stablilize Pi Coin Price
Amid frantic calls for a masterstroke for Pi Network price stability, one developer is picking up the gauntlet to launch a decentralized solution. The plan, a community-driven liquidity pool (CDLP), has received widespread support from the Pi Network community, stoking belief for an imminent launch.
Developer Urges Pi Network Community To Proceed With Community-Driven Liquidity Pool (CDLP)
The pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto has confirmed plans to proceed with the launch of a CDLP for Pi Network. According to an X post, the developer disclosed that the launch plans come on the heels of overwhelming community support for the initiative after a poll.
The CDLP, a decentralized price stabilization mechanism, involves Pi Network community members purchasing a fixed amount of Pi coins each month. Using the dollar-cost averaging (DCA) strategy, the steady purchases will create a decentralized liquidity pool with Pi coins controlled solely by investors.
Nakamoto shared a poll to gauge community opinion on the initiative on X, with 69% of votes supporting the idea. Going forward, the developer plans for the CDLP are underway, a valiant attempt to prevent steep price drops.
“Based on the results of the previous vote, we are officially establishing the CDLP community framework,” said Nakamoto.
He adds that the next phase will be the appointment of moderators for the CDLP from the Pi network community. While details for the framework are sparse, Nakamoto notes that the CDLP’s operation will follow the core principles of stabilizing the Pi price.
What Is The End Goal For The CDLP?
While the primary purpose of the CDLP is to stabilize the Pi coin price from sharp drops, Nakamoto says the initiative will have a far-reaching impact. He adds that a stable Pi price will provide a conducive atmosphere for developers to thrive.
Furthermore, businesses will be incentivized to accept Pi as a payment method, broadening its reach beyond Southeast Asia. In his submission, long-term Pi holders will receive rewards from Pi ecosystem projects and decentralized applications (DApps).
“As the community grows, Pi will become an increasingly adopted medium of payments and transactions,” added Nakamoto.
Community members like Dr Altcoin have called on the PiCoreTeam (PCT) to take decisive action to stabilize Pi Coin. Furthermore, Dr Altcoin suggests burning Pi tokens locked up in foundation wallets.
After a steep decline that saw the price lose 19% over the last week, the Pi price is recovering with optimists eyeing a rally beyond $3. Pi Network price currently hovers around $0.5 but the broader crypto market selloff threatens its recovery.

In a major XRP news, crypto firm Ripple has announced plans to acquire prime broker Hidden Road for $1.25 billion. The XRP price surged on the back of this announcement, with the deal one of the largest in the crypto industry.
XRP News: Ripple To Acquire Hidden Road For $1.25 Billion
In a press release, Ripple announced that it will acquire Hidden Road for $1.25 billion, one of the largest deals in crypto history. The firm noted that with this acquisition, it will become the first crypto company to own and operate a global, multi-asset prime broker.
Hidden Road is a fast-growing prime broker offering institutions a one-stop shop of services, including clearing, prime brokerage, and financing across foreign exchange (FX), digital assets, derivatives, swaps, and fixed income. Meanwhile, this news comes just as the first XRP ETF went live in the US.
Furthermore, the crypto firm noted it is important that there are core infrastructure in place for institutional adoption for the industry to achieve the next phase of growth. This is where prime brokers come in as they bring the necessary credibility and professional trading services in legacy finance to the digital assets space.
As such, Ripple, alongside Hidden Road, plans to bring the promise of digital assets to institutional customers at scale, bridging traditional finance and decentralized finance (DeFi). Although not mentioned in the release, Fortune reported that the crypto firm will settle this acquisition primarily in cash, XRP tokens, and company stocks.
Commenting on the proposed acquisition, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said,
We are at an inflection point for the next phase of digital asset adoption – the US market is effectively open for the first time due to the regulatory overhang of the former SEC coming to an end, and the market is maturing to address the needs of traditional finance. With these tailwinds, we are continuing to pursue opportunities to massively transform the space, leveraging our unique position and strengths of XRP to accelerate our business and enhance our current solutions and technology.”

Despite the broader crypto market correction, Curve Finance’s Curve DAO Token (CRV) is up 10% with a strong 27% pump in daily trading volumes. This happens despite the fact that Michael Egorov has offloaded nearly $2 million in CRV tokens over the past two weeks. This is because the leading decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol witnessed a record Q1, with $35 billion in trading activity, despite a sluggish market.
Curve Finance Price Is Up 10%, $3 Rally Coming?
After the crypto market crash on Black Monday, the Curve DAO (CRV) price bounced back over 10%, currently trading at $0.45 with its daily trading volume surging 27% to $240 million. As per the Coinglass data, the CRV futures open interest is up 6% to more than $107 million, showing strong bullish sentiment among traders.
Prominent market analyst The Mental Trader has reiterated his bullish outlook on Curve (CRV), forecasting a rise to $3+ based on Elliott Wave (EW) theory. Despite recent price fluctuations, the analyst maintains that CRV remains in the “third of the third” mega wave upwards while hinting at a potential long-term upside.
The trader shows that the recent Curve Finance price action is a second minor wave within the sub-third wave, and a breakout above $0.60 would confirm a bullish trajectory ahead.
The swing low at $0.34 is highlighted as a critical level; a breach would necessitate a full revision of the EW count. Thus, traders should keep a close eye on CRV’s price action as it approaches pivotal resistance levels.
Founder Michael Egorov on CRV Selling Spree
Curve Finance founder Michael Egorov has resumed offloading CRV tokens amid a market rebound. On his latest sale, Egorov offloaded 236,457 CRV tokens valued at approximately $108,000.
Egorov has sold a cumulative 3.083 million CRV tokens since March 24, amounting to $1.62 million. The tokens were sold at an average price of $0.527, strategically executed near local price peaks as reported by Spot On Chain.
Surge In User Activity for Q1
The leading decentralized finance (DeFi) platform Curve Finance has witnessed a major surge in user activity during the first quarter of the year. During this period, the Curve platform clocked a massive $35 billion in trading volumes, up by 13% in comparison to the previous year.
As per the data from DeFiLama, the platform’s total transactions surged from around 1.8 million to 5.5 million in the first three months. This has been one of the major reasons behind the DEX’s surge in trading volumes.
