Aave Horizon RWA protocol
Overview
Aave Labs launched Horizon, an institutional lending market built on Aave infrastructure, in 2025. The platform enables qualified and institutional users to post tokenised real-world assets as collateral—initially comprising tokenised US Treasury and credit funds from issuers including Superstate, Circle and Centrifuge—and borrow stablecoins such as USDC, RLUSD and GHO. Chainlink data services, including SmartData and NAV feeds, provide pricing and valuation for the RWA collateral. In contrast to Aave's core permissionless markets, Horizon implements issuer-level permissioning on the RWA collateral side.
