- Aave advances native Bitcoin credit proposal before mainnet rollout — this brief
CryptoSlate reports that Babylon announced passage of an 
Aave ARFC covering a proposed native 
Bitcoin lending structure. The approval advances the proposal through the referenced governance process, but it does not mean that unrestricted lending is ready for mainnet use. Proposed credit limits and a restricted mainnet rollout are still outstanding.
The remaining controls are central to the proposal’s risk profile. Until credit parameters and rollout conditions are finalized, the mechanism has not reached the stage described as a broad mainnet deployment. CryptoSlate’s headline also highlights liquidation concerns, while its summary provides limited detail on the mechanics behind those concerns; the credit limits are the clearest stated safeguard still to come.
Independent on-chain data from DeFiLlama puts Aave’s total value locked at $16.22 billion, down 0.8% over seven days. Babylon’s TVL is listed at $3.02 billion, down 3.9% over the same period. These figures indicate that the protocols operate against measurable on-chain activity even as their TVL direction is negative over the week.
The wider market backdrop is weak: total crypto market capitalization is $2.52 trillion, Bitcoin is down 1.23% over 24 hours and 4.47% over seven days, and the Fear & Greed index stands at 29, indicating fear. Aave’s token trades at $124.05, down 2.15% over 24 hours and 2.61% over seven days. The next items to monitor are the final credit limits, the scope of the restricted mainnet rollout and how the proposal addresses liquidation exposure; no outcome beyond ARFC passage is established.

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 BTC ≈ ₹7.33M (about $73,794.00), down 1.3% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 5.8% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
