Aave Cowswap Integration- Tokenholder Questions

Governance
60

I would like to summarize some things and get final answers, without talking around the topic. Just a clear yes or no.
Additionally I would like to keep this conversation focused on the current “problem”, which is the CowSwap integration. Other topics like v4, MegaETH, etc. can be discussed in the according threads/proposals. Otherwise we will never be able to end this conversation and find a solution to move forward and crush competition, as we did yet.

Facts:

  1. 10-15m$ are annual estimations from so far received fees from the CowSwap integration, based on past data I reviewed. It is not, what has been received in the past from Paraswap.
  2. Paraswap revenue was not a fee but part of a referral program, as I stated in my initial post, coming from surplus from trades.
  3. The Aave frontend is successful, because the Aave protocol (backend) is improved, managed, maintaned and developed by the Aave DAO. Its only working together.
    No good entry point = no deposits, borrows, etc.
    No good backend = no frontend needed, as there is nothing to be used in big volume.
  4. Aave.com and the Trademarkt for “Aave” are owned by Avara through Quantum Swan OÜ.

Questions:
Just a clear yes or no. As proof is being presented here.

  1. Has the DAO funded development of the Aave frontend, as stated here ARC: Aave V3 Retroactive Funding?

    If not, what did it pay for? Exact explanation, no coporate answer please.

  2. Is Aave Labs open to discuss a solution where the DAO would receive the swap fees and in return receive a reasonable sized yearly maintenance fee for hosting the frontend?

  3. Is Aave Labs open to discuss a model on applications using domains correlated to the Aave brand like Aave.com or any other brand correlated initiatives?

Again, please answer in simple Yes or No to these questions. Otherwise we won’t be able to find a suitable solution for everyone.
If there is a path, we could move on and work together as a DAO on a proposal that can be presented to the DAO and it can vote on it.

Additionally I would like to add a quote from a person I really respect a lot.
“As long as we have a good trust relationship and can trust each other thats all that matters to me”
Same applies to me and the DAO.

Just use Aave.
