【BitPush】Wintermute founder Evgeny recently shared some thoughts on social media, sparking quite a bit of discussion. He admitted that AAVE constitutes a significant portion of Wintermute's investment portfolio, and that neither he personally nor Wintermute as a whole hold any equity in Aave Labs.
Regarding the recent highly debated brand control vote, Evgeny's analysis is quite interesting.
