Rewards & GHO
The Rewards page shows protocol incentives associated with your Aave V3 position, including claimable Merit rewards and your GHO/sGHO balance.
Merit Rewards
Aave's Merit program distributes rewards to active Aave users based on their protocol activity. Kairu reads your pending claimable rewards for each eligible asset.
The rewards panel shows:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Asset | The reward token (usually AAVE or other incentive tokens) |
| Claimable | Amount available to claim right now |
| USD Value | Estimated USD value at current market price |
Rewards are listed sorted by USD value, highest first.
To claim rewards, use the Aave app directly — Kairu is read-only and cannot submit claim transactions.
GHO
GHO is Aave's native decentralized stablecoin. It is minted by borrowing against your Aave V3 collateral on Ethereum mainnet.
Kairu shows your GHO position:
- GHO balance — how much GHO you currently hold in your wallet
- GHO borrow — how much GHO debt you have in your Aave position
- Borrow rate — your current GHO borrow cost (discounted if you hold stkAAVE)
sGHO
sGHO is staked GHO. By staking GHO in the Aave Safety Module, you earn a staking APY while providing protocol backstop capital.
Kairu shows:
- sGHO balance — your staked GHO amount
- Staking APY — current annual yield on sGHO
- Estimated annual earnings — projected earnings at current rate
Asking the AI about rewards
The AI assistant has direct access to your reward and GHO data:
"How much can I claim in rewards?"
"What's my GHO borrow rate?"
"Is it worth staking my GHO at the current sGHO APY?"
