Ecosystem 🧉
Aave Mobile. 206 addresses representing 15.24k AAVE voted unanimously in support of Aave Grants providing a $98k grant to 2001DeFi to build out a mobile application for Aave. The Snapshot vote is a temperature check to gauge support for larger sized grants. Catch up with the discussion and share your thoughts.
