Major decentralized finance tokens Aave and Uniswap saw declines, reflecting a broader downturn across the CoinDesk 20 index constituents.

Aave's founder defended the DeFi protocol's resilience after an **$8.45 billion** outflow, attributing vulnerabilities to third-party entities despite data highlighting internal risk gaps.

The CoinDesk 20 index experienced a downturn, primarily influenced by significant price drops in key digital assets like Stellar (XLM) and Aave (AAVE).

Aave is overhauling its asset listing standards after a $230 million rsETH exploit, traced to a LayerZero bridge failure, exposed new DeFi security risks.
