Techub News reports that Axelar has initiated a governance proposal to cease integration with the three chains Flow, Berachain, and Plume, citing that these chains have not generated sustained transaction activity since launch, yet they incur validator infrastructure costs of hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. The protocol states that these chains are integrated through the Amplifier framework, with the foundation providing long-term subsidies for related validator fees, but internal reviews have found that cross-chain transfer activity is almost zero. The proposal will enter the standard governance process, and token holders can vote within three days; if approved, a one-week notice period will be given before officially terminating the connection.
