The Aave community has voted in favor of the 'Aave Will Win' proposal, a framework that redirects all revenue from Aave-branded products back to the DAO, consolidating economic rights under the AAVE token. This shift means the DAO will now fund Aave Labs' activities, with a $25 million stablecoin grant and 5,000 AAVE token allocation approved. The proposal resolves a dispute that began when swap fees were redirected away from the community treasury, and marks a significant milestone in Aave's history.
The Aave DAO, a community-run decision-making body, will now oversee the protocol's revenue and direction. The proposal aims to make Aave fully token-centric, with a focus on generating revenue for token holders.
The Aave team plans to expand collateral options, invest in AI infrastructure, and scale the protocol to $1 trillion, positioning Aave as a financial network for fintech, banks, and asset managers.
