Aave Labs has unveiled a governance initiative known as the “Aave Will Win” framework, proposing to direct 100% of all product revenue from Aave-branded services—including swap fees, protocol earnings, and future products—to the Aave DAO treasury. In exchange, Labs is seeking substantial funding from the DAO (roughly $25 million in stablecoins plus 75,000 AAVE tokens and additional grants) to cover its operational costs. The plan also includes setting up a foundation to manage Aave’s intellectual property. Community reaction is mixed, with some seeing it as aligning incentives, while critics question the funding ask and governance process.
