AAVE, a popular DeFi lending protocol, announced that they have integrated access to the AAVE protocol natively within the Ledger Enterprise platform, allowing LEdgers users more direct access to financial services on-chain. 

The partnership comes at a key moment for AAVE following the release of their GHO testnet token. It appears AAVE is positioning its protocol towards more Ledger users in time for their native token to officially release. 

While hard wallets are often encouraged by many in the crypto community, the actual act of owning one seems to be lost to many as collapsed exchanges still show that users are unaware of the importance of decentralized. 

However, this could go a step further for people holding their assets on Ledger hard wallets but are unsure of how to use their crypto afterward. With this collaboration, it appears that Ledger is making an attempt to streamline the process, making it easier for users to interact with DeFi protocols without less complexity.
