DeFi’s honeymoon phase is over—2025 is shaping up to be the year of turf wars.
Aave’s proposal to deprecate its Polygon deployment isn’t just a technical move; it’s a response to the growing risks of rehypothecation, where assets meant to be “safe” are instead leveraged to chase yield. As Andre Cronje pointed out in his thread response, proposals like Polygon’s attempt to earn interest on bridged assets are a dangerous step toward fractional reserve banking in DeFi.
Cronje uses a simple analogy to break it down: “You deposit $10,000 into a bank, and they lend out $9,500. Your friend deposits that $9,500 back, and now the bank’s balance sheet shows $19,500 from only $500 in cash. Repeat this process, and you have the recipe for financial collapse.” In DeFi terms, this happens when stablecoins, wrapped assets, and bridge tokens are stacked on top of one another, creating IOUs far in excess of the original collateral.
Let’s apply this to the Polygon/Morpho/Aave situation:
- Over $1B in stablecoins are locked in Polygon’s bridge, represented as wrapped deposit receipts (a form of debt).
- The new proposal suggests using these assets to earn yield via Morpho on Ethereum L1, effectively rehypothecating the collateral.
- The problem? A third of those assets are already pledged as collateral on Aave. Morpho, a direct competitor to Aave, would become the quasi-senior debtor in any liquidation/exploit/doomsday scenario.
As Cronje notes, “No amount of yield should ever be worth double-dipping user assets.” Yet, this is precisely what the proposal implies—leveraging user funds for additional yield without their explicit consent. Aave’s move to pull out of Polygon is an attempt to protect its users. If there’s a failure in Morpho, Aave’s collateral could go to zero, leaving its users at a loss while Morpho has first claim to liquidate and recover funds on the L1.
What’s more troubling, as Cronje highlights, is the sheer fact that such a proposal is even possible. “The best way to avoid an ‘unlikely event’ is to turn it into an ‘impossible event.’” The ability of bridges to rehypothecate assets without sufficient checks undermines one of DeFi’s core principles: not your keys, not your assets.
This battle between Polygon, Aave, and Morpho is just the beginning of a broader turf war in DeFi. With 1000s of L2's launching, L3's on the horizon, we're going to see hard questions raised about who/what has ultimate control and if rehypothecation is preferred by the market.
The lines are drawn. The game has changed. And DeFi’s future will depend on how these risks are addressed. Buckle up. : Leviathan News
