Summary
A proposal to:
- Increase osETH’s supply cap on the Ethereum Core instance.
- Increase wstETH’s supply cap on the ZkSync instance.
osETH (Ethereum Core)
The supply cap for osETH on Ethereum has reached 96% utilization.
Supply Distribution
The top supplier of osETH accounts for 35% of the total distribution, presenting concentration risk. However, since this position is borrowing WETH, the liquidation risk is significantly reduced.
All remaining top suppliers are either borrowing WETH or maintaining a high health score (>3.9), thus presenting limited liquidation risk at the moment.
The largest borrowed asset against osETH is WETH, accounting for approximately 96% of the borrowed asset distribution, significantly reducing the likelihood of large-scale liquidations.
Liquidity
osETH’s liquidity has remained stable over the past three months. Currently, a 6k osETH sell to USDC incurs less than 3% price slippage.
Recommendation
Based on user behavior and on-chain liquidity, we recommend doubling the supply cap.
wstETH (ZkSync)
The supply cap for wstETH on ZkSync has reached 98% utilization, while its borrow cap utilization stands at 55%.
Supply Distribution
The distribution of wstETH is not concentrated, as the top wstETH supplier accounts for around 10% of the overall distribution.
Among the ten top suppliers, eight are borrowing WETH, which significantly reduces liquidation risk. The remaining two positions are borrowing USDC or ZK. However, both of these positions maintain reasonable health scores above 1.3 and are actively managing their positions, meaning they do not present significant risk at the moment.
The largest borrowed asset against wstETH is WETH, representing 88% of the total distribution, which aligns with our earlier analysis of top supplier behavior.
Recommendation
Based on user behavior and on-chain liquidity, we recommend increasing the supply cap to 2.1K wstETH.
Specification
Instance | Asset | Current Supply Cap | Recommended Supply Cap | Current Borrow Cap | Recommended Borrow Cap |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Ethereum Core | osETH | 20,000 | 40,000 | 1 | - |
ZkSync | wstETH | 1,800 | 2,100 | 240 | - |
Next Steps
We will move forward and implement these updates via the Risk Steward process.
