- Aave depositor reportedly loses $305,000 in Across Protocol website incident — this brief
CryptoSlate reported that Bitquery’s November 12 update estimated $401,900 in losses across nine wallets connected to a hijacked Across Protocol website. One affected wallet held an 
Aave deposit token valued at approximately $305,000, according to the report.
The available coverage is limited to CryptoSlate and does not provide further detail on how the website compromise occurred, which users interacted with it, or whether the affected assets were recovered. The reported figures therefore describe the estimated scale and wallet distribution of the losses without independently confirming the full sequence of events.
The incident is relevant beyond Across Protocol because a portion of the estimated losses involved an Aave deposit token. Aave remains a major DeFi platform, with DeFiLlama reporting total value locked of $15.51 billion, a 4.6% decline over the previous seven days.
Market conditions were weak during the reported period. AAVE was priced at $110.25, falling 6.58% over 24 hours and 15.26% over seven days. The total crypto market capitalization stood at $2.36 trillion, 
Bitcoin was down 7.51% over 24 hours, and the Fear and Greed Index registered 20, labeled Extreme Fear. The incident occurred against this broad risk-off backdrop, while the extent of any further impact on Aave or Across remained unclear in the single-source report.
Since this brief published about 7 hours ago, Aave (AAVE) has moved from ₹10,373.00$110.25 to ₹10,495.31$111.55 — +1.18%.
The chart plots AAVE's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 AAVE ≈ ₹11,115.96 (about $111.55), down 4.4% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 5.9% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
