According to the Snapshot governance page, the Aave community initiated a proposal vote to launch the "Frontier" DAO staking-as-a-service product.
The proposal states that the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) has launched a "Aave DAO staking-as-a-service" product called "Frontier". The service aims to further decentralize the protocol's staking exposure and actively participate in network security. ACI will delegate the operational rights of the DAO to nodes and run verification nodes to enhance the DAO's passive income and promote diversified equity delegation strategies.
