ME News update, April 7 (UTC+8). According to market update: Aave DAO’s main contributor, Chaos Labs, has stepped away from protocol-related work, becoming another major service provider to exit after BGD Labs and Aave Chan Initiative (ACI). Previously, BGD Labs and ACI had both announced their departures in sequence; ACI stated it would gradually end its work within the DAO, citing disputes related to the allocation of governance power and transparency. BGD Labs, meanwhile, chose to leave due to disagreements over the protocol’s development direction. A series of core team departures is seen as evidence of escalating governance conflicts within the Aave DAO. The market widely fears that its decentralized governance structure and long-term development stability may be undermined. (Source: ODAILY)
