Aave Liquidity Committee Funding Phase VII
01Summary
Aave Liquidity Committee (ALC) requests Phase VII funding of 2,500,000 aEthLidoGHO to sustain GHO growth and ecosystem expansion, representing a budget reduction from Phase VI despite GHO supply growing from 200M to 315M.

02Description
Simple Summary
This proposal presents the Aave Liquidity Committee (ALC) Phase VII Funding request. Since the last update in April, GHO has experienced significant growth across supply, integrations, and ecosystem adoption. This proposal seeks to sustain and accelerate that momentum while lowering the overall budget requirements compared to the previous phase.
Motivation
Since Phase VI, GHO has grown significantly, from 200M to over 315M supply, while maintaining a strong peg. The ALC has driven this expansion through liquidity programs, GSM adjustments, and integrations across DeFi and CeFi (notably Fluid deployments on Base and Arbitrum, as well as GHO’s first CEX listing on Bitget).
Phase VII aims to:
Sustain ongoing growth of GHO while optimizing cost efficiency.
Provide the ALC with sufficient resources to support integrations, market stability, and ecosystem expansion.
Reduce overall funding requirements compared to Phase VI, reflecting the increasing maturity of GHO and the compounding efficiency of incentives as supply scales.
Specification
Create an allowance enabling the ALC to withdraw 2,500,000 aEthLidoGHO from the Prime instance.
This represents a reduction from Phase VI’s budget, reflecting both the maturity of GHO and the DAO’s other growth priorities. The lower budget is designed to balance sustaining ongoing initiatives with funding new integrations on emerging networks.

03Mismatch analysis
The decoded on-chain action is a single call to execute() on the payload contract at 0x2a628d...b0c54e, which is the standard Aave governance execution pattern: the DAO's governor delegatecalls into a purpose-built payload contract whose internal logic (approve/allowance calls, GHO token transfers, etc.) is not exposed in the top-level decoded calldata — only visible in the linked Solidity source (AaveV3Ethereum_AaveLiquidityCommitteeFundingPhaseVII_20250930.sol) and its tests. Because the decoded action provides no arguments (amount, token, recipient), it is not possible to directly verify from the calldata alone whether the allowance amount (2,500,000 aEthLidoGHO) or the recipient (ALC Safe) match the prose. However, this opacity is typical and expected for Aave V3 governance proposals of this type, not itself a red flag — the proposal correctly links to the implementation and test files where the specific approve() call and amount can be verified by reviewers. No mismatched values, targets, or omitted/extra actions can be identified from the decoded data provided, and there is no indication of an unexpected transfer, role grant, or upgrade. Given the lack of granular decoded arguments, confidence is set to low, but the overall pattern is consistent with what a standard ALC funding proposal calldata should look like, so no discrepancy is flagged pending review of the underlying payload source.
