Aave Founder Says SEC (U.S. securities regulator) Ends Four-Year Investigation Into Aave Protocol

The assessment is "likely_true" because the two relevant sources provided both corroborate the statement without any contradiction. A social media post from AssetDash, a crypto-focused company, and another post from a personal/aggregator account both explicitly state that the SEC has concluded its investigation into Aave. While these sources are not primary (e.g., an official statement from the SEC or Aave) and have moderate to low authority scores (0.40 and 0.20 respectively), their consistency on the matter provides significant weight to the claim. The other three sources are irrelevant to the specific investigation, discussing unrelated topics or serving as a general article index, and therefore neither support nor refute the statement. The absence of conflicting evidence, combined with the direct and consistent claims from the relevant sources, makes it highly probable that the statement is true, although the lack of a high-authority, primary source prevents absolute certainty.
