The fallout from the KelpDAO hack has triggered about $15 billion of outflows from DeFi lending protocol Aave over the past four days.

Aave's total value locked fell by $15.1 billion to $30.7 billion on April 22 from $48.5 billion just before the KelpDAO hack on April 18, according to EmberCN and other sources. That means roughly one-third of the protocol's total deposits have been wiped out in four days.
