Aave has proposed deprecating dozens of low-adoption asset reserves and winding down six blockchain deployments in a governance initiative that would affect approximately $98.1 million in supplied assets and $15.6 million in outstanding debt.
Aave founder Stani Kulechov announced the proposal Thursday.
Prepared by risk service provider LlamaRisk, the changes follow a review conducted under the protocol's newly proposed Aave Risk Framework, with LlamaRisk applying the framework across deployments rather than reacting to any single asset.
The proposal recommends offboarding 50 low-adoption reserves and 21 matured Pendle Principal Tokens across 11 Aave V3 deployments, alongside the full wind-down of six smaller deployments — Sonic, Scroll, zkSync, Metis, Soneium and Aptos — which cover another 25 reserves.
According to the proposal, the individual reserve removals account for $85.3 million in supplied assets and $11.5 million in debt, while the six deployment-wide deprecations represent an additional $12.8 million in supplied assets and $4.1 million in debt.
