Standard Chartered analyst Geoff Kendrick projects AAVE to reach $3,500 by 2030, a roughly 50x increase, alongside Bitcoin at $500K and Ethereum at $40K.

Aave generated $907M in 2025 revenue and $333M YTD in 2026. Standard Chartered initiates coverage as the DeFi lender routes all fees to its DAO treasury.

Geoff Kendrick said Aave has moved past April's cyberattack-related market disruption and is well positioned to benefit from growth in tokenized assets and DeFi.
