Curve Finance founder Dr. Michael Egorov stated that disputes in decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) indicate a healthy structure. DAOs are decentralized organizations managed by smart contracts and member votes. Egorov cited the 2024 Curve DAO proposal for a grant of approximately $6.3 million to Swiss Stake AG and the recent AAVE detailed analysis DAO dispute as examples. He noted that automatic agreement by everyone reflects governance apathy, with high abstention rates. According to LamprosTech analysis, participation rates in DAOs usually do not exceed 15%.

The Curve DAO proposal was revised in December 2025 and received 80% participation. Curve token holders encourage long-term governance by locking their tokens for extended periods. In Aave DAO, the fee dispute over the Aave Labs and CoW Swap integration brought intellectual property rights to the agenda; the proposal to transition to DAO control failed. Egorov emphasized that legal recognition of DAOs could reduce disputes by facilitating interaction with traditional finance.

According to Egorov, discussions in DAOs demonstrate the community's activity. Revisions in projects like CRV detailed analysis increase participation. Events like the CoW integration in AAVE DAO strengthen governance.
