The discussion revolved around the idea of reintroducing the fee-share referral program from the v1 pre-DAO days, a suggestion put forth by Sneg55¹. This proposal was met with agreement from TheoRochaix, who further suggested that Aave should reward partners that bring volume to the protocol². However, Sneg55 expressed uncertainty about their ability to write the AIP for it³.

TheoRochaix also commended the DAO's decision to establish the AAVE Grants DAO and proposed that those who have already started building on top of Aave should be rewarded. They suggested that the v2 should give back to Aave builders, similar to what was implemented in v1. They cited the Yearn Partner Program as a good model to emulate⁴.

The discussion concluded with Cleyfe seeking updates on the topic, asking about any decisions made and potential hurdles to restarting the referral program⁵. The outcome of the discussion remains open-ended, with the community awaiting further updates on the potential revival of the fee-share referral program.
