✦AI Summary
The Aave decentralized finance protocol is proposing to discontinue support for six blockchain networks that generate negligible revenue. The proposal cites high maintenance costs and declining liquidity as the primary reasons for the move.
The arguments is based on economics. Each of the six deployments now generate less than $5,000 a quarter. Metis, Soneium and Aptos bring in under $1,000 each, according to the proposal. That does not cover the cost of running them, which includes maintaining price feeds, liquidation systems and monitoring for each market.
