“This is a temporary overhaul to enable ‘fee conversion’ next week,” Zeller said, after noting that Aave DAO’s current net income is approximately $60 million per year, reflecting five years of operating expenses.
Zeller previously teased the idea of enabling fees for Aave stakers in another post on X. “The new version of the safety module will propose to the governance to distribute fees to stakers,” he wrote on March 16.
