Mark Zeller, the founder of the Aave-Chan Initiative and an active participant in Aave’s governance, recently proposed to deploy Aave Version 3 (V3) on Binance’s BNB chain. The proposal was put forward considering the chain’s large user base and growing DeFi ecosystem which could help Aave mop up additional revenue. At the time of writing, stakeholders extended unanimous support for the plan.
The latest data from Token Terminal showed that BNB Chain was the second largest blockchain in terms of daily active users.
Apart from this, Aave was also looking to branch out to layer-2 blockchains. As per details from a temperature check that was released, the Aave team put forward a proposal to begin phase-2 deployment of V3 on the zero-knowledge rollup (Zk-rollup), Starknet. Phase-2 will mark the full deployment of V3 on Starknet after the successful completion of phase-1
Notably, the voting for the proposal has started and will go on till 10 April. The proposal received overwhelming support from the Aave community with a 99.99% vote going in its favor.
