## Research questions

### Does connecting to Aave establish a supplied position?

Aave's FAQ describes connecting a compatible wallet on the corresponding supported network before supplying assets. Wallet access and a supply transaction are different steps. Suggested measurement: count a connection separately from a confirmed supply, rather than treating both as funded protocol use.

### Can an Aave access message imply every interaction is gas-free?

Aave's FAQ distinguishes free signed messages, available for certain tokens and wallets, from onchain transactions that require network gas. Gas depends on network conditions and is non-refundable. A gas-free access claim would need to identify the particular action, token and wallet conditions.

### Can an Aave withdrawal offer promise assets are always immediately available?

Aave says withdrawal requires sufficient unborrowed liquidity. Its collateral-withdrawal explanation also says the funds cannot be actively used to borrow and the amount must not cause liquidation of borrow positions. These stated protocol constraints do not support an unrestricted instant-withdrawal promise.

### Does an Aave supplied balance automatically establish borrowing eligibility?

Aave describes borrowing capacity as dependent on collateral value, available liquidity, asset parameters and health factor. Its liquidation guide says a health factor below 1 can trigger liquidation and that no universally safe factor exists. Suggested measurement: separate supplied assets from an opened borrow; neither establishes investment suitability.
