DeFi Governance Roundup: A Focus on Protocol Growth

In the last DeFi governance research piece, most of the governance proposals for the various covered protocols focused on driving organic growth while maintaining a risk-averse stance in new proposals.

The main theme across governance communities remains to establish protocol stability and drive sustainable growth through useful features and integrations. This research piece will look at key governance proposals across Aave, BitDAO, Frax Finance, Sushiswap, Uniswap and 1inch.
