Arenas brings real-world financing on-chain by connecting two existing systems with a single, thin piece of glue.
Arenas deploys one contract of its own — the Credit Delegation Module (CDM). Everything else it uses is external and already deployed:
Atomica
The credit engine — approval-gated, undercollateralized financing markets.
Atomica contracts (Base)
Aave
An optional liquidity source, used via standard credit delegation for boosted yield.
Aave v3 contracts (Base)
CDM
Arenas’ own Credit Delegation Module — routes Aave borrowing power into Atomica financing pools.
Arenas (the only Arenas contract)
Arenas is not an Aave fork and does not run its own liquidity protocol. It uses Aave v3 and Atomica as they are, and adds the CDM to connect them.
Borrowers get approval-gated credit from Atomica markets — no on-chain collateral.
Suppliers / LPs earn Atomica yield, and can amplify it by delegating Aave credit through the CDM (the Aave Market strategy).
Understand the credit engine → Atomica → Key Concepts.
The Arenas piece itself → Credit Delegation Module.
Earn boosted yield → Aave Market.
Build an integration → Build with Arenas.
Arenas operates on Base (chain 8453), alongside the Atomica deployments on Base, Arbitrum One and Boba.
