Aave Community: Only Support Post-Merge Ethereum PoS
The Aave community posted a technical analysis on why the upcoming transition of Ethereum to Proof-of-Stake (The Merge) should not affect Aave's systems. From a technical/operational perspective, Aave only gets slightly affected on the duration of on-chain governance mechanisms and potentially on the Aave UI. Aave also does not operate properly on any other chains due to the lack of oracle and liquidity issues, so the Aave decentralized UI should only consider Ethereum as mainnet, the post-merge Ethereum Proof-of-Stake. If any user decides to interact directly with Aave smart contracts on any fork, should be under their own responsibility.
