Aave governance faces a split between the DAO and Aave Labs over protocol control. The conflict arose after Labs replaced ParaSwap with CoW Swap, sending fees to a private address. A DAO member accused Labs of taking protocol value privately, while Labs called it a product-layer move. The debate centers on whether the protocol should be DAO-run and products led by Labs. Both sides claim ownership of Aave, highlighting governance tensions in DeFi.
