Excited to see this hit the forum.
$15mm feels fair as well as the structure - retroactive funding rewards work that has been done. The development of V3 for Aave is paramount and should be compensated for this effort.
I am particularly grateful for the audits - it restores trust within users and shows a commitment toward security within the DAO; expensive but necessary.
This model of multiple organizations servicing the DAO is compelling and sets the standard for the rest of the industry; development, security & risk, all working asynchronously.
I too would echo @EzR3aL’s comments and appreciation for running it by community members and governance participants first. It creates a feeling of trust and fairness in the proposal
It is best to reward those who are doing the work - Aave Companies is the epitome of that. Supportive and excited to see this proposal progress.
