Investor bias for the Aave token began in late July, following Aave-Chan Initiative founder Marc Zeller’s proposal to allocate a share of the platform’s net earnings to key ecosystem participants and a fee adjustment for repurchasing AAVE from the secondary market.&nbsp; 
Another proposal that pushed the investor rally for AAVE was the <a href="https://governance.aave.com/t/bgd-aave-safety-module-umbrella/18366" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">‘Umbrella’</a> Initiative, which called for the shift from the ’seize and sell’ liquidation mechanism to ‘seize and burn.’ According to Katie Talati, head of research at Arca, this new ‘umbrella’ project would help alleviate market pressures on selling AAVE and help manage risky loans.&nbsp; 
She added that the primary purpose of the new initiative would be to utilize a range of assets to settle outstanding debts. For instance, these assets would be used when a position is liquidated, and the collateral does not cover the liquidation, rather than just using the AAVE.

Web3 agency <a href="https://mobile.x.com/deelabsxyz/status/1816478744594252099" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Deelabs remarked</a> on the new proposals on X, stating that buybacks would result in positive market pressure. The company added that the Umbrella offering would reduce the adverse effects on AAVE price during loan liquidations.&nbsp; 
Wintermute, the algorithmic trading firm, also said the proposals aimed to revamp AAVE’s tokenomics and risk management. It also mentioned how the update played a significant part in rallying investors to AAVE. 
These two proposals contributed to stoking investors’ enthusiasm as AAVE price subsequently rose by 46%. Over the same period, Helium’s HNT was the closest rival with a 26% price gain. AAVE also generated over <a href="https://tokenterminal.com/terminal?v=NGVhNDU0MGM2ODQ0M2I4Njg4MDE2ZWFl" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">$27 million</a> in fees, outshining other lending and borrowing protocols.
