Aave Proposes Granting Risk Stewards Limited Control Over V4 Parameters

Aave DAO voters are currently deciding whether to grant Risk Stewards limited control over V4 parameters on Ethereum and Avalanche. The proposal would also assign no-delay emergency roles that the current steward software cannot use.

The Snapshot vote opened September 3 at 3:46 p.m. UTC and is scheduled to close today, September 6, at the same time. Approval would not activate the system by itself; a corresponding payload would still need to be executed through the V4 Security Council.

However, the release under consideration calls none of the emergency selectors, and the current steward documentation does not expose those methods. The emergency permissions would remain inert until a future release adds support.
