Analysts note that this increase isn\u2019t just a byproduct of crypto market gains, but also the result of significant net inflows into the platform, especially from Ether and its derivatives.<\/p>\n<p>Measured in ETH terms, Aave\u2019s holdings have surged from around 6 million ETH at the start of the year to nearly 10 million ETH, showcasing real growth in onchain participation. That metric helps cut through price noise and points to sustained user demand for yield-generating strategies.<\/p>\n<style>\n    .dark-mode .read-more {background-color: #343a40 !important;}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1 d-none d-md-block\">READ MORE:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/after-april-surge-bitcoin-etfs-enter-cooling-phase-with-modest-gains\/\" title=\"After April Surge, Bitcoin ETFs Enter Cooling Phase With Modest Gains\">\n        <div class=\"contentRight col-4\">\n            <span class=\"imgContainer mt-0\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image img-defer\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/01\/bitcoinetfasdasda-240x170.jpeg\">\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"contentLeft col-8\">\n            <h4 class=\"title mb-0\">After April Surge, Bitcoin ETFs Enter Cooling Phase With Modest Gains<\/h4>           \n            \n        <\/div>        \n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>The protocol\u2019s rise coincides with Ether\u2019s strong recovery.
