Evidence summary #

Yearn uses ENS extensively at the protocol level: ychad.eth (governance multisig 0xFEB4acf3df3cDEA7399794D0869ef76A6EfAff52), brain.ychad.eth, dev.ychad.eth, veyfi.eth (Snapshot space). banteg self-attested use of yfi.banteg.eth as a personal signer address (X post 2020). However, the operative V3 VaultFactory deployer EOA (0x78d4BDEBc0B4140f01BAB63085F94A5a7A1294f2) does not show an ENS reverse-resolution name on Etherscan. Yellow: ENS names bound to governance multisig and key contributor handle but not confirmed on operative deployer EOA.
