BroadChain learned that at 15:30 on April 20, according to TechFlow, on April 20, Spark strategy lead monetsupply.eth stated that Spark has long insisted on setting a high borrowing cap rate for the SparkLend ETH market. While this move has led many users to switch to Aave, resulting in significant business and revenue losses, the current market liquidity crisis has proven the prudence of this strategy. Currently, Aave's ETH borrowing utilization rate has reached 100% across multiple chain markets including Mainnet, Arbitrum, Plasma, Mantle, and Base, leading to liquidity depletion. This has caused depositors to be unable to withdraw funds and prevented the normal execution of ETH collateral liquidations. He warned that if the liquidity tightness persists, a 15%-20% drop in ETH prices could expose Aave to large-scale bad debt risks, and the potential impact of the rsETH vulnerability incident may exacerbate this risk.
