Coinbase Tokenized Stocks Go Live on Aave V4 on Base

Coinbase Tokenized Stocks are now available as collateral on Aave V4, deployed on base, allowing eligible non-U.S. users to borrow USDC against tokenized equities.

The integration was announced by aave on Sept. 25, 2026, and amplified by base. The feature lets holders of tokenized stocks — such as those representing shares of major companies — access dollar-denominated liquidity without selling their positions.

According to the announcement, the service is only available in eligible jurisdictions outside the United States.

Aave V4 is the latest iteration of the Aave lending protocol. The addition of tokenized stocks expands the range of real-world assets that can be used as collateral within DeFi, bridging traditional equity markets with onchain lending.

No further details on specific eligible stocks or borrowing terms were provided at the time of writing.
