Summary

Agave was a decentralized lending protocol on Gnosis Chain forked from Aave v2, developed by members of the 1Hive community. On March 15, 2022, the protocol suffered a reentrancy exploit that drained approximately $5.5 million in user funds, part of a coordinated $11.7 million attack that simultaneously hit Hundred Finance. The protocol paused operations following the hack and formally closed down in March 2024 with no documented user compensation.
