Aave DAO proposal seeks to absorb Aave Labs' IP and equity

December 16, 2025, 6:58 PM
Internal conflict at Aave over governance and revenue distribution is intensifying, The Block reported. In response, an AAVE token holder has posted a "poison pill" proposal on the official forum that would have the Aave DAO absorb the intellectual property and equity of Aave Labs, effectively making it a subsidiary of the DAO. The proposal also calls for all revenue generated by Aave Labs from the Aave brand to be transferred to the DAO treasury. This move follows a recent controversy over allegations that swap fees from Aave's CoW Swap-based interface were being directed to an Aave Labs address rather than the DAO, as CoinNess previously reported.
