Aave Founder Stani Kulechov Announces Brand Shift

Aave founder Stani Kulechov announced that the company is winding down the Avara umbrella brand to focus on core products under Aave Labs, including Aave App, Aave Pro, and Aave Kit.

The Family crypto wallet for iOS will be discontinued over the next year. Current users retain access to their funds until April 1, 2027, and no new users will be onboarded starting April 1 this year.
