## [ARFC-ADDENDUM] Aave DAO & Chainlink Smart Value Recapture (SVR)

## Author: ACI

## Date: 2025-03-12

* * *

## Summary

The current proposal pretends to formalize a six-month collaboration agreement between Aave DAO and Chainlink regarding the potential integration of Chainlink’s Smart Value Recapture (or SVR) system.

## Motivation

The DAO is currently discussing the activation of Chainlink’s SVR system in Phase 1, (as its currently being discussed at [ARFC Snapshot stage](https://snapshot.box/#/s:aave.eth/proposal/0xe260268c607f20c85d1f93323f2f58b05f202916e0d3dbf55a8c335ed9be92da/discussion))

If proposal passes, SVR is expected to enhance Aave’s value recapture in liquidation scenarios, potentially generating significant additional revenue.

Therefore it makes sense to formalize an agreement that would include a revenue sharing model and exclusivity to align incentives and ensure focused development on the Aave ecosystem.

This proposal is an addendum of [**[ARFC] Aave \<\> Chainlink SVR v1. Phase 1 activation**](https://governance.aave.com/t/arfc-aave-chainlink-svr-v1-phase-1-activation/21247).

## Specification

**Revenue Sharing Mechanism**

- The revenue split initially proposed will be set to:
  - **65% to Aave**
  - **35% to Chainlink**

- This distribution will be in effect for six months from the date of activation of the first SVR in Aave pools.
- Chainlink will send the proceeds of SVR directly to the Aave Ethereum Collector on [Aave: Treasury Collector V2 | Address: 0x464C71f6...9e5d6e18c | Etherscan](https://etherscan.io/address/0x464C71f6c2F760DdA6093dCB91C24c39e5d6e18c), weekly or any reasonable minimal period for gas cost of the transfer being substantially lower than the value transferred

**Mutual Exclusivity Terms**

- During a 3-month period:
  - Aave will exclusively work with Chainlink for price oracle SVR-related value recapture.
  - Chainlink will exclusively provide SVR services to Aave.

## Implementation

After the 6 months period, a new ARFC can be proposed, to reassess and redefine the collaboration terms ( based on feedback, metrics, etc).
