The Aave (AAVE) token gained over 7% following the unveiling of a major governance proposal aimed at overhauling its revenue model. Analysts note the token is testing a critical support zone, with a potential breakout targeting prices up to $240.
Aave (AAVE) traded at $119.37 on Saturday, February 14, 2026, marking a daily gain over 7%, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Over the past week, the token rose 4.28%, signaling renewed market optimism.
Crypto analyst Profit Demon noted that AAVE is approaching a historically significant support zone within a descending channel. The asset has remained in a medium-term downtrend since peaking near $350–$360, forming consistent lower highs and lows that confirm persistent selling pressure.
Recent price action shows a rebound from the $105–$115 demand zone, an area of repeated buying interest. If confirmed by stronger volume, analysts identify upside targets at $130 and $145, followed by extended resistance levels at $180, $207, and $240.
Concurrently, the Aave DAO unveiled a governance framework titled “Aave Will Win,” which aims to align Aave Labs and the DAO under a unified, token-centric economic model. The proposal seeks to direct all ecosystem revenue into the DAO treasury.
Under the plan, the DAO would fund long-term product growth and ecosystem incentives. The initiative also recommends forming a new foundation to steward Aave’s trademarks, addressing decentralization concerns linked to brand ownership.
