Aave DAO's revenue data has just been released—earning $140 million in just one year. How significant is this number? It surpasses the total of the previous three years combined. The control of this money is entirely in the hands of $AAVE token holders, which is a core embodiment of decentralized governance.

Recently, a detail worth noting emerged. The founder clarified the previous $15 million acquisition of $AAVE tokens, emphasizing that this investment has no relation to governance voting. This statement is very important—it underscores decentralized governance while also dispelling market concerns about concentration of power.

From the data to system design, it is evident that Aave is committed to reshaping DeFi governance models. Token holders truly have a say in the ecosystem's profits, which is a significant step in the development of the DAO.

1.4 billion is indeed impressive, but it depends on liquidity indicators. Real gold and silver still need to be stored in the treasury to count. The founder's 15 million investment statement... Medical records show the need for more regular reviews of voting power distribution. Don't turn it into a verbal promise. Token holders having a say is a good thing, but the risk warning is how likely retail investors can truly participate in decision-making. DeFi governance requires not stories, but transparent fund flows and complication prevention.

$140 million? Wow, the growth rate is really outrageous. --- The founder needs to clarify when buying tokens, indicating that the market is still a bit uneasy. --- Having a say as a token holder sounds good, but how it will actually be implemented remains to be seen. --- The combined total of the first three years isn't even as much as this year and a half; Aave is really on fire. --- Decentralized governance sounds great, but big investors still have a louder voice than retail investors. --- Raising $15 million to buy back your own tokens—this move is quite interesting. --- How is this $140 million distribution handled? Does anyone know? --- DeFi governance reform, Aave is leading the way; can other projects keep up? --- Have doubts been dispelled? I think it’s actually more interesting now. --- Earning so much money, can token holders really have a say?

140 million, wow, this number is indeed wild... But can the coin holders really manage this money well? I always feel like it's just nice talk. Regarding the founder spending 15 million to buy coins, the quicker they clarify, the more uneasy I feel. Why are they in such a hurry? Decentralized governance sounds great, but in the end, it's still the big players who call the shots. My few coins are just here to watch the fun.

$140 million? Wow, that's a pretty rapid growth. I should have accumulated more AAVE earlier. --- The founder clarifies that investments are unrelated to governance? Sounds good, but I still have some doubts... --- Decentralized governance sounds great, but I wonder how much the small retail investors can actually get. --- Exactly, token holders have a say, but if someone holds a lot of tokens, they can easily overpower us. --- $140 million? That number is indeed outrageous, but it seems like this money ultimately ended up with the big players. --- Wait, only earned this much in the first three years? Is the DeFi sector this competitive? --- Reshaping governance models? Anyway, I only care about the token holdings; it doesn't really matter how much. --- The move to acquire tokens with $15 million... The founder's clarification came a bit too timely. --- By the way, can this money really be distributed evenly? I'm starting to overthink it. --- So is it still a good time to buy AAVE now, or have the insiders already finished their bottom fishing?
