GHO Funding
01Summary
Aave DAO proposes to acquire approximately 1.36 million GHO tokens from secondary markets by converting existing treasury assets (aDAI v2, TUSD, BUSD, aEthDAI v3, and aUSDT v2) worth ~$1.6M. The GHO will fund approved budget proposals for grants, events, sponsorships, delegate initiatives, and liquidity management over the next several months.
- Type
- treasury allocation
- Funding
- $$1,600,000
Key changes
- Convert aDAI v2, TUSD, BUSD, aEthDAI v3, and aUSDT v2 holdings to GHO using Aave Swap Contract(high)
- Shift Aave DAO expenditures to be nominated in GHO stablecoin(high)
- Transfer approximately 1.36 million GHO to Aave Ethereum Treasury to support multiple approved funding initiatives(high)
Notable concerns
- Proposal relies on secondary market conditions; actual GHO acquisition may vary from estimated 1.36 million tokens
- Future ACI funding request amount is marked as TBA (to be announced)
- Conversion of multiple token types adds execution complexity

02Description
Simple Summary
This publication aims to acquire GHO from secondary markets to support the Aave DAO's short-term funding requirements.
Motivation
The primary objective of this publication is to shift Aave DAO's expenditure towards being nominated in GHO. The following outlines some potential use cases for GHO:
- 328,000 GHO allowance over 6 months Aave Grants Continuation Proposal
- 550,000 GHO over 3 monthsAave Events & Sponsorship
- 75,000 GHO over 3 months Expansion of “Orbit”
- 406,000 GHO over 3 months GHO Liquidity Committee
- TBA Future ACI Funding Request (Renewal mid-October)
Totaling 1,359,000 GHO plus future ACI budget.
This proposal is expected to acquire approximately $1.6M from secondary markets based on current holdings in the Ethereum Treasury.
Specification
Using the Aave Swap Contract, convert the following asset holdings to GHO:
The GHO will be transferred to the Aave Ethereum Treasury.

03Mismatch analysis
The decoded on-chain data contains only a single generic execute() call to a payload contract address, which is the standard Aave governance execution pattern (a short executor delegatecalling into a purpose-built Solidity payload contract). No granular sub-actions—such as specific token swap calls, amounts, or transfer targets—are exposed in the decoded calldata for direct comparison against the prose. The proposal's implementation link corroborates that the detailed swap logic (aDAI, TUSD, BUSD, aEthDAI, aUSDT to GHO, then transfer to Treasury) lives inside this contract, which is normal for this proposal type and not itself a red flag. Because the decoded action set is opaque (just 'execute()'), a rigorous line-by-line comparison of specific values (370,000 aEthDAI, 370,000 aUSDT, GHO transfer target) against calldata is not possible from the data given. This is a common and expected pattern for Aave proposals bundled via payload contracts, so I do not treat the lack of visible detail as a discrepancy, but confidence in the comparison is necessarily low. No mismatches, omissions, or misleading claims can be identified given the available decoded data, so the assessment defaults to consistent with low confidence rather than flagging unverifiable specifics as false alarms.## discrepancies []
