Celo DeFi Integration
This skill covers integrating DeFi protocols on Celo, including Uniswap for swaps, Aave for lending/borrowing, and other protocols.
When to Use
- Building swap functionality with Uniswap or Ubeswap
- Integrating lending/borrowing with Aave
- Creating liquidity provision features
- Building DeFi aggregators

Supply Assets
const AAVE_POOL = "0x3E59A31363E2ad014dcbc521c4a0d5757d9f3402";
const POOL_ABI = [
{
name: "supply",

// First approve the Pool to spend tokens
const hash = await walletClient.writeContract({
address: AAVE_POOL,

return hash;
}
Borrow Assets
const POOL_ABI_BORROW = [

Token Approval
Before interacting with DeFi protocols, approve token spending:
const ERC20_ABI = [
{
name: "approve",
type: "function",
stateMutability: "nonpayable",
inputs: [
{ name: "spender", type: "address" },
{ name: "amount", type: "uint256" },
],
outputs: [{ type: "bool" }],
},
] as const;
async function approveToken(
token: string,
spender: string,
amount: bigint
): Promise<string> {
const walletClient = createWalletClient({
chain: celo,
transport: custom(window.ethereum),
});
const [address] = await walletClient.getAddresses();
const hash = await walletClient.writeContract({
address: token as `0x${string}`,
abi: ERC20_ABI,
functionName: "approve",
args: [spender as `0x${string}`, amount],
});
return hash;
}
