[ARFC] Chaos Labs - CRV Aave V3 Polygon - LT Reduction - 10.28.2023

Simple Summary

A proposal to reduce the Liquidation Threshold (LT) for CRV on Aave V3 Polygon.

Motivation

As the market liquidity of CRV has seen a substantial decline, this proposal seeks to address this by decreasing the liquidation threshold (LT) for CRV on Polygon V3. The objective is to mitigate the risk exposure associated with CRV and diminish its borrowing power, thereby aligning it more accurately with the existing market conditions and its parameters on other deployments.

As Liquidation Threshold reductions may lead to user accounts being eligible for liquidations upon their approval, we want to clarify the full implications to the community. Chaos Labs will publicly communicate the planned amendments and list of affected accounts leading to the on-chain execution.

Analysis

Chaos Labs recommends a 15% reduction. As of October 25, seven total accounts amounting to ~$141 are at risk of liquidation following the proposed changes.

We have published a Snapshot for the community to vote on, starting in 24h.

We thank you in advance for your participation in the vote.

We support this decreased Liquidation Threshold. With the Curve exploits that happened in August, the CRV/ETH pool on Curve has been fully drained, and was a major source on liquidity. To prevent Aave from taking on a lot of bad CRV debt, its better to ensure that borrowers who supply CRV are only able to take out smaller amounts of borrows.
