Spotlight: JustCause 🔦

If you are a non-profit, DAO, or charitable organization in need of funding, check out and apply for JustCause’s Verified Pool to receive funding from their pilot program. JustCause is a crowdfunding platform that leverages the power of DeFi to fund public goods & charitable organizations. Be sure to follow @JustCauseDev on Twitter so you don’t miss any updates 👻

Risk 🔎

In case you haven’t seen it, check out the AAVE V2 Risk Dashboard by Gauntlet at gov.gauntlet.network/aave.  Gauntlet has also launched the AAVE Arc Risk Dashboard. The Gauntlet team is particularly keen on iterating on this dashboard for the community and would love feedback via this Google Form.

For more details on how Gauntlet manages market risk for AAVE, please see Gauntlet’s Parameter Recommendation Methodology and Gauntlet’s Model Methodology.

Risk-Off Framework:

Details can be found in this forum post

To achieve sustainability, Aave must combine value creation under favorable market conditions with protection of itself and its users when conditions become unfavorable. Over the last several weeks, Gauntlet has collaborated with BGD Labs, Llama, Governance House, and other community stakeholders to align on how to most effectively serve the protocol regarding the tradeoffs between value creation and protection. In particular, it is important that the community explicitly aligns on a desired maximum reduction to liquidation thresholds per AIP because there are tradeoffs, as described in the forum post. To facilitate community feedback, a Snapshot vote will be published on Thursday, July 21, and voting will begin the day after. 

Protocol 📰

Ready, Set, GHO | Aave Companies shared a proposal to launch a native stable coin that would be fully collateral-backed and pegged to USD. Learn more in the governance post or Messari’s Governor Note 🚀

Just my 2 cents...

If you help the community in the hard times the community will help in your times of need (figuratively speaking) and the value of the publicity and marketing from charitable donations and community projects is worth more than any banner or sign or Facebook campaign.

Helping those in need benifits organisations at a grass roots level all the way up to the top.

The value of being known as a community focused company goes way beyond any advertising campaign, one company that is doing it right for example is Boardriders Foundation, they advertise and market their projects and focus on how they are making the world a better place and these projects are a way to advertise and promote your brand in a way that gets people thinking about the brand in the best way possible without pushing their product and labels into your face.

Marketing a better future for everyone.
