Aave Cowswap Integration- Tokenholder Questions

This discussion should be a natural continuation to the first part [ARFC] $AAVE token alignment. Phase 1 - Ownership and should be discussed in detail in Phase 2, as it depends on Phase 1 outcome.

From a users perspective, providing multiple interface options when they land on aave.com only creates confusion and friction. aave.com should organically lead users toward app.aave.com, the interface hosted here and its fees should belong to the DAO.

Sure, aave.com could have a section where interfaces from different service providers are mentioned (ofc with pre approval from the DAO), but it should be done in a careful manner which does not hurt the revenue going towards the DAO.

  • DAO missed $10 million and only found out now? (Even though that figure has been argued)
  • Didn’t secure an agreement to begin with (My concern is the lack of maturity)
  • Nothing said has really affected Token Holders just the DAO
    • What exactly would you have spent that $10 million on? Where is the DAO’s break down?
  • The DAO’s responsibility doesn’t extend to copyright laws. I don’t see how the DAO has any expertise in that?
  • I see a desperate need for a few people who want to pretend to run a business because they’ve never had the opportunity. Please consider what your actual motivation and goal here is.
  • If we were to replace folks at AAVE Labs I should think we would replace our current DAO for allowing this situation come to the forefront to begin with.
  • We talk about a lack of communication but what attempts from the DAO have there been to also attempt a lines of communications? Any monthly or quarterly syncs proposed or currently in place?
  • I think the DAO needs to be reminded who they are supposed to be representing as well.

Why go through the trouble of making a new account just to post nonsensical ragebait?

I’ve been wondering who are all these people. Now it make sense.
AAVE will win.

I am now sure if @EzR3aL meant to add the label Aave Labs-Technical SP. But I a haven’t just created a new alt account for “rage baiting”. I admit I am one of few arguing against the proposal compared to the plethora of new accounts popping up in favour for. I assume then this is your doing?

My background is one of compliance and risk. I see an emotional reaction rather than one of logic and strategy. And anything that is assume and rushed doesn’t end well and opens us up to risk.

But please what part of what I have said is nonsensical? Let’s discuss and converse.

what a shit show, this clarifies what kind of “organization” ACI is…

AAVE would benefit from organizations like these to move on and find a different job.

If questionable behavior by individual members is grounds for dismissing an entire team of 10+ people, then by that same standard Aave Labs should be fired from the DAO, given that some of its employees used fake and/or multi-accs to “support” the CoW Swap integration, which is detrimental to the DAO

Please refrain from posting comments that do not meaningfully contribute to the discussion or advance the debate

A quick note on process and tone.

Tactics like personal attacks, brigading, or attempts to manufacture consensus through semi-anonymous alt-account of service providers employees or inauthentic participation do not add value.

They create noise and confusion, distract from the substance, degrade trust in governance, and ultimately harm the Aave brand and ecosystem. They also hand unnecessary ammunition to competitors and critics watching how the DAO operates.

Let’s keep the discussion focused on the merits of the proposal, stick to facts and clear arguments, and maintain a professional standard of discourse.

Have you ever tried the “ACI merit rewards”? Nodoby knows the formula they use to calculate the rewards. Also the distribution is often late and done manually. Most people experiencing issues or asking for clarification don’t get any response from their team.

We are starting to talk off topic again, but as a normal user I would like to show my experience.
I’m claiming rewards for sGHO each week and haven’t had any problems so far. Payouts happened on the same day.

I remember I received rewards for another campaign but I’m not sure which one it was, also without any problem.
You can click the campaign button for more information. But if course the real formula isn’t shared so no one is able to play and abuse it.

This is not off topic at all. The proposal is about giving more power and responsibility to an organisation that has already proven to be unfit to fullfil the role they have today.

My post here was about the cowswap integration. That’s literally it.

This thread has absolutely nothing to do with “giving more power to ACI.” Did you even read the title? “Aave CowSwap Integration – Tokenholder Questions.” Yes, clearly a master plan to centralize power in ACI :roll_eyes:

If you’re yet another Aave Labs employee trying to derail the core discussion, please spare us. As Marc already pointed out, tactics like personal attacks, brigading, or manufacturing consensus via semi-anonymous alt accounts from service-provider employees (or any other inauthentic participation) don’t add value, they just expose your bad faith

I was right. You never cared about token holders or the DAO—today removed all doubt.
Your panic Snapshot move addressed zero concerns raised by the community. You’re solely responsible for sabotaging this DAO.
Instead of clarity, you created chaos. Instead of trust, you shattered it. AAVE is bleeding and will continue to bleed because you broke something fundamental today. Zero damage control. Zero accountability.
Meanwhile, Uniswap advances real unification. What did AAVE get? Gaslighting, chaos, and your narcissistic “$10M AAVE purchase” post—a transparent grab for voting power dressed as solidarity.

Shame on you and every Avara puppet executing your orders without question. This sets DeFi governance back 5 years. You’ve proven decentralization was always theater.
