Seven leading Ethereum protocols have established the Ethereum Protocol Advocacy Alliance (EPAA) to champion on-chain transparency and self-custody. The coalition, comprising Aave Labs, Aragon, Curve, Lido Labs Foundation, The Graph Foundation, Spark Foundation, and Uniswap Foundation, seeks to influence public policy in support of Ethereum's decentralized ecosystem. The alliance aims to protect over $100 billion in on-chain assets by advocating for four core principles: preserving protocol code neutrality, advancing on-chain transparency, safeguarding innovation, and maintaining global, permissionless access to DeFi infrastructure.
