According to CoinDesk, the Bitcoin collateral project Babylon has partnered with decentralized lending protocol Aave to allow Bitcoin to be used as collateral without wrapping or centralized custody. In addition to lending services, Babylon plans to expand its treasury design to the DeFi insurance sector, allowing Bitcoin to serve as insurance coverage against protocol hacks. Babylon is collaborating with Aave to combine Babylon's trustless vaults with Aave's 'centrifuge' architecture. Babylon will build a dedicated 'branch' supported by Bitcoin within Aave's lending 'centrifuge', enabling users to deposit Bitcoin on its chain and borrow stablecoins and other assets on Aave's platform. Testing is set to begin in early 2026, with the product expected to launch around April.
