We recommend listing CRVUSD with collateral disabled to allow a more controlled launch for the asset. We leave collateral enablement to a future date, pending future community vote and CRVUSD maturity.

In addition, we recommend listing CRVUSD with Borrowed in Isolation disabled. Enabling Borrowed in Isolation introduces risk to the isolated assets due to the correlation between the volatility of the isolated asset and that of the borrowed asset.
