The mechanism then read the Ethereum data and passed it for validation on the Polygon network.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Afterward, the Aave cross-chain governance bridge contract received this data, decoded it and queued the action, pending a timelock for finalization.

In addition, the Ethereum co-founder warned that the scaling of cross-chain applications could also scale vulnerabilities, as hackers can cause system-wide contagions by launching 51% attacks on just one network, especially against small-cap ones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/first-cross-chain-governance-proposal-passes-on-aave\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday, the first cross-chain governance proposal passed on decentralized finance, or DeFi, borrowing and lending platform Aave (AAVE).\u00a0According to DeFi Llama, the amount of total value locked on Aave is approximately $12 billion.
