Aave's AAVE token rallied close to 6% on Sunday, trading near $139 and holding in the $138–$139 range, while the broader cryptocurrency market moved little, according to market data published by COINOTAG on November 1, 2026.

COINOTAG's live reading put the token at $139.33, a gain of 5.7% on the day. Earlier, the asset had climbed 6.75% over 24 hours to reach $139.25 by 06:06 UTC. The publication framed the advance as a sign that confidence in the lending protocol is rebuilding in the aftermath of a recent attack. The report did not detail the nature or impact of the attack it referenced.

The move stood out against a market that, in COINOTAG's description, otherwise went nowhere on the day, making AAVE's single-session gain a sharp divergence from broader price action. With the wider market little changed, the divergence placed the focus squarely on Aave-specific sentiment, which COINOTAG tied to the post-attack recovery in confidence.

That confidence dynamic is significant given how Aave operates. As a decentralized, non-custodial liquidity protocol, its lending and borrowing run entirely on assets supplied by users, making user participation the foundation of the capital the platform holds. Originally launched on Ethereum and since deployed across multiple other blockchain networks, Aave ranks among the largest lending platforms in decentralized finance (DeFi) by total value locked. The AAVE token functions as the protocol's governance asset, with holders voting on proposed changes to the platform.

The published figures cover a single session. Whether AAVE holds its position near $139, and how its path compares with the broader market in subsequent sessions, will provide the next readings on the recovery in confidence that COINOTAG described.
