Aave TUSD v1 is a token that represents interest-bearing TrueUSD (TUSD) on the Aave protocol. It is part of the Aave platform's aTokens, which earn interest for holders by lending the underlying assets in a decentralised manner.
Aave TUSD v1 works by leveraging the Ethereum blockchain and smart contracts for its operations. Users deposit TUSD into the Aave protocol, which is then used for lending purposes. In exchange, users receive aTokens like Aave TUSD v1 that accrue interest in real-time. The interest rate for these tokens is determined by utilisation rates and algorithmic calculations, such as variable and stable rate slopes.

Aave was initially launched as ETHLend by Stani Kulechov in 2017, aiming to decentralise the financial lending industry. It evolved into the Aave protocol, introducing aTokens, including Aave TUSD v1, as part of its first version, Aave v1. This protocol has since grown and evolved, contributing significantly to the decentralised finance (DeFi) landscape, with updates such as flash loans and improved security features in Aave v2.
