Aave, Sky float partnership to bridge DeFi, TradFi

The plan would create markets for DAI-replacement USDS on Aave.

Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols Aave and Sky (previously Maker) are exploring a partnership designed to “close the gap between DeFi and TradFi,” according to a Sept. 2 announcement.

The proposed partnership, referred to as the Sky Aave Force, follows a Sept. 2 governance proposal by Phoenix Labs, a DeFi research and development organization. The proposal suggests issuing SPK tokens—native to Sky’s subDAO, Spark—to help establish a market for USDS, a stablecoin launched after Maker’s August rebranding to Sky
