Why Aave is up 4.7% today
Analysis
Aave (AAVE) rose 4.7% over the past 24 hours even as headlines flagged governance uncertainty, including reports that core technical contributor BGD Labs plans to cease involvement with the Aave DAO (Cointelegraph) and coverage of a broader governance dispute tied to that planned exit (AMBCrypto, confidence: 57%). The move suggests traders may have viewed the news as manageable or already priced in, allowing AAVE to rebound despite the negative governance backdrop.
