Government Rights Moved to AAVE Coin Owners

The core developers of AAVE tokens transferred voting rights to token owners, giving the community power over the protocol.

On the 29th of October, Aave stated that the program's administrative keys had been moved from its leading designers to government groups under the control of its original LEND coin owners. This is a significant time for the program, as the official transfer of the program's administrative keys to the government is a substantial move to decentralization.

Major Updates:

  • The group voted in support of transferring the government rights of the protocol to AAVE owners.
  • LEND holders can redeem 13 million of AAVE's 16 million supply.
  • The remaining token balance will be reserved.
  • Owners of AAVE can offer their coins can also stake their coins on Balancers.

Aave started in Jan. 2020, becoming a major decentralized finance program as the area began to heat up around the middle of this year.

What do you think of this latest development by Aave? Let's discuss in the comments.

Well, I guess there's a good reason for transferring the administrative keys.

Aave has taken a good leadership direction by devolving powers to Lend holders. It is the right process for adopting decentralized governance.

This weekend the decentralized money market protocol Aave broke records as the community witnessed a massive flash loan of $14 million worth of the stablecoin DAI. So far, the Aave protocol has seen over $300 million in flash loans to-date and this trend doesn’t seem to be abating any time soon.
