- Transfer of Aave brand assets to token holders sets new governance standard.
- Market closely watches Aave’s strategic shift to DAO control.
- Community awaits outcome as voting begins on December 23, 2025.
Aave’s founder, Stani.eth, confirmed the legitimacy of the “Transfer of Brand Asset Control” vote starting December 23, 2025, on Snapshot.
This vote seeks to clarify Aave’s brand ownership, affecting governance token value and decentralization.
Aave’s Strategic Brand Transfer to DAO Control
Ernesto Boado, co-founder of BGD Labs, authored the ARFC proposal on December 16, 2025. It seeks to transfer critical brand assets such as domain names, social media accounts, and naming rights from current entities like Aave Labs to a DAO-controlled entity. This move aims to clearly define control over these assets, ensuring they align with the decentralization ethos of the $AAVE community and community interests.
The proposed changes would grant AAVE token holders substantive ownership and control of the Aave brand, contrasting with centralized asset management systems. It aims to mitigate power concentration and influence from external bodies on Aave’s governance, potentially impacting token utility and market dynamics.
The community and stakeholders have expressed mixed opinions. While some view the proposal as a step toward true decentralization, others voice concerns over its implications for Aave’s leadership. According to Stani.eth, governance remains key in resolving such matters, reiterating the voting’s importance.
AAVE Price Volatility and Market Reactions
Did you know? Aave’s move to transfer brand control aligns with larger trends toward decentralization within crypto projects, potentially influencing the way other DAOs handle off-chain assets.
According to CoinMarketCap, Aave (AAVE) is priced at $161.35 with a market cap of $2.47 billion. The token experienced a significant 9.12% decrease in the past 24 hours. With a 24-hour trading volume of $551.54 million, AAVE shows heightened volatility. The circulating supply stands at 15,305,253, reflecting dynamic market responses ahead of the vote. These figures highlight the ongoing shifts in AAVE’s market performance.
Coincu research anticipates strengthened DAO governance post-vote. This shift could lead to intensified scrutiny of centralized control within crypto entities. Broader crypto adoption might follow as these governance trends develop, yet fluctuations in market responses remain likely in the short term.
Ernesto Boado, Co-founder, BGD Labs, stated:
“The outcome of this proposal will determine what we, as holders of $AAVE, actually own when we go on secondary markets and buy the asset.”
