# HOW TO BUY AAVE
## Millions choose OVEX to buy Aave.
**What is Aave (AAVE)?**
Aave stands out as a pioneer in the realm of decentralized finance (DeFi), offering a permissionless lending platform where users can borrow and lend cryptocurrency without relying on traditional intermediaries.
Instead of centralized institutions, Aave utilizes liquidity pools, which are essentially pools of various crypto assets. This setup allows lenders to earn interest by depositing their crypto into these pools, while borrowers can access overcollateralized loans.
Here's how Aave operates:
- **Lending:** Users can deposit their crypto assets into liquidity pools, earning interest generated by borrowers who access loans from the pool.
- **Borrowing:** Borrowers can access overcollateralized loans, meaning they need to deposit crypto worth more than the loan amount as collateral. This mitigates risk for lenders and allows the protocol to liquidate the collateral if necessary.
Governance within Aave operates through a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). This means that holders of the AAVE token have the power to vote on proposals and shape the future of the protocol.
By eliminating central authorities and leveraging innovative mechanisms like liquidity pools, Aave has carved a niche as a leading DeFi platform, empowering individuals to participate in a decentralized lending and borrowing ecosystem.
