Aave Chan Initiative Halts Frontier Staking Service Amid Risks

Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) founder Marc Zeller announced on the governance forum the immediate termination of the Frontier staking service plan due to concerns over rsETH collateral and potential wETH shortages and bad debt risks in Aave V3 Core. According to Foresight News, all ETH staked through Frontier will be fully withdrawn and managed by Aave DAO to protect wETH depositors if necessary. Additionally, ACI has decided to forgo all potential income and planned fees from the service until the exit is completed. Frontier was introduced by ACI in January 2024 as a staking-as-a-service product for Aave DAO.
