Ethereum Foundation Allocates $120 Million to DeFi Loan Protocols Beincrypto 13 Feb 2025

Ethereum Foundation Allocates $120 Million to DeFi Loan Protocols 🏦

The Ethereum Foundation (EF) announced today that it has allocated $120 million in ETH to DeFi lending protocols Aave, Spark, and Compound. This move aims to address ongoing leadership challenges and community concerns over the Foundation's financial management.

The EF's decision comes amid pressure to explore alternative solutions for funding overhead costs without impacting token value. By leveraging these DeFi platforms, the Foundation hopes to passively accrue $1.5 million annually, potentially boosting its financial stability.

Vitalik Buterin and the community have responded positively to these changes, although the EF still faces significant challenges amidst a declining Ethereum price.
