According to @EmberCN, HTX withdrew 600 million USDT from Aave today, causing Aave's USDT deposit rate to surge to 19.5%. This mirrors a similar event on June 5, when HTX pulled 570 million USDT, temporarily spiking USDT borrowing rates to 30% and prompting rapid inflows from arbitrage traders seeking yield opportunities. The rates normalized after HTX redeposited the funds a few hours later. Traders should monitor large whale movements on lending platforms, as such actions can quickly alter DeFi yield environments and create short-term arbitrage opportunities.
