[TEMP CHECK] Onboard tBTC to Aave v3 on Ethereum, Arbitrum and Optimism
Vote Result: YES
Rationale
Adding a trustless version of BTC that is secured by a decentralised network of nodes using threshold cryptography may be a critical unlock for the DeFi ecosystem on Ethereum and beyond, and certainly mitigates some of the issues with wBTC. LlamaRisk has mentioned that they researched tBTC with a reasonably positive outlook, and it would be good to get their opinion on tBTC now. tBTC has now acquired a Chainlink oracle and is thus a good fit for the Aave ecosystem, especially with the asset being used across the Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, Polygon and Solana ecosystems. Therefore, we will vote YES in favour of this proposal and look forward to LlamaRisk’s opinion at the ARFC stage.
