Key Takeaways\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Why has Aave made token buyback official?<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

The team said that the trial initiative was a \u201cstrong success\u201d in improving AAVE value accrual.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Will it lift the token above $200 again?\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

Yes, under a positive, broader market sentiment, the deflation plan could boost AAVE in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

DeFi lending giant <\/span>Aave [AAVE]<\/span><\/a>, has unanimously approved the creation of a $50 million per year buyback program. <\/span><\/p>\n

The move followed what the project called a \u201cstrong success\u201d after a pilot test initiated in May, designed to improve the tokenomics of the AAVE token.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the <\/span>plan<\/span><\/a>, the team would eye $250K-$1.75 million in weekly AAVE purchases, based on protocol revenue and other factors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There are two additional steps before the proposal can be enforced. That being said, AMBCrypto evaluated the <\/span>pilot test<\/span><\/a> to gauge the potential impact of the latest update.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

AAVE buybacks and potential impact<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Since May, the initiative has <\/span>bought<\/span><\/a> over 94K AAVE tokens and spent over $22 million in the process. The team added 20.1K AAVE in May, marking the largest monthly purchase during the trial program.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During the same month, AAVE posted price gains of over 50%, partly influenced by the broader recovery in Q2. From July to October, the team acquired about 10K AAVE on a monthly average.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The deflation move and broader recovery lifted AAVE to $385 by August. However, Q4 headwinds dragged AAVE below $200 despite the ongoing buyback.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond deflation and market sentiment, AAVE\u2019s value also has a strong positive correlation with Ethereum [ETH]<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

ETH correlation drives AAVE swings<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The chart showed that during ETH rallies, AAVE pumped even harder. However, during pullbacks, AAVE also dumped harder.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As the barometer of the broader DeFi ecosystem, ETH\u2019s momentum also trickles down to the sector\u2019s outliers, including AAVE.\u00a0<\/span>Perhaps, an ETH rebound could also lift AAVE if the above correlation extends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That being said, the altcoin has been under selling pressure since the October flash crash.<\/span><\/p>\n

Exchange inflows pressure price<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to CryptoQuant, the Exchange Netflow surged to a seven-month high, with approximately 10,000 AAVE sent to platforms for sell-off on a weekly basis last month.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unless the exchange selling pressure tapers, the AAVE price could remain subdued in the short term.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, AAVE, like the broader market, was under selling pressure. However, the potential scaling of its deflation program could boost its value in the long run.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
