Aave is planning to sunset its deployments on zkSync, Metis, and Soneium, setting a $2 million revenue threshold for new chains.

41 minutes ago

On December 3rd, the Aave DAO approved a temperature check vote to revise its V3 multi-chain deployment strategy, planning to sunset deployments on zkSync, Metis, and Sony Soneium, while setting a clear $2 million annual revenue floor for future deployments. Aave currently operates on at least 18 blockchains, including multiple Ethereum Layer 2 networks and Layer 1 chains like Aptos and Sonic. Now, ACI—Aave’s primary delegation platform—appears to be scaling back some expansion plans and imposing stricter requirements for new deployments. As part of the proposal, ACI also recommends establishing the $2 million annual revenue floor for future deployments and introducing a stablecoin “reserve factor” for smaller revenue-generating instances. Per forum discussions, ACI’s Growth Service Provider (Growth SP) has proposed sunsetting Aave deployments on zkSync, Metis, and Sony Soneium, as these instances have failed to align with market demand. The total value locked (TVL) across these three chains is the lowest among all Aave deployments, making up only a tiny fraction of Aave’s total revenue. Metis—co-founded by Natalia Ameline, mother of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin—currently generates an annualized revenue of just over $3,000. Soneium performs slightly better, with annualized revenue exceeding $50,000. By contrast, Aave’s largest deployment on the Ethereum mainnet generates over $142 million in annual revenue, while its deployment on Base brings in $4.7 million.

South Korea's "Digital Asset Basic Law": The issuer of a stablecoin will be limited to a "consortium with a bank holding a 51% stake" as the main direction.

December 3 – According to News1, as South Korea’s government and National Assembly draft the second phase of digital asset (virtual asset) legislation, a key direction is limiting stablecoin issuers to consortia of banks holding a 51% stake. The solution currently under discussion would award stablecoin issuance rights to such bank consortia, and the Democratic Party’s Digital Asset Special Task Force (TF) also leans toward this approach. Previously, Korean banks pushed for bank-led stablecoin issuance restricted to the banking system, while some National Assembly members argued the space should be open to fintech and blockchain firms. The government’s draft bill must be submitted by no later than December 10, with the goal of launching formal discussions by the end of this year and finalizing the legislation by January next year.

Analysis: Bitcoin Key Resistance Levels at $99,000 and $122,000

On December 3rd, analyst @ali_charts pulled data from Glassnode, noting two key Bitcoin resistance levels to watch—derived from the price range tied to its Market Value to Realized Value Ratio (MVRV): ? $99,070 ? $122,060 ### Notes on American English adjustments: 1. Added **"On"** before the date (standard for specific dates in U.S. usage). 2. Replaced "cited glassnode data" with "pulled data from Glassnode" (more conversational, common in financial updates; capitalized **Glassnode** as a proper noun). 3. Swapped "to indicate that" for "noting that" (concise, typical of quick news blurbs). 4. Restructured to lead with "two key Bitcoin resistance levels" (prioritizes the actionable info, U.S. readers prefer directness). 5. Used em dashes for clarity (links the resistance levels to their MVRV context smoothly). 6. Removed the trailing semicolon on the last bullet (cleaner, standard in U.S. list formatting).
