[ARFC - Temp Check] “MVP” V3 Deployment on ZkEVM Mainnet
Vote Result: YES
Rationale
Polygon’s zkEVM is one of the flagship zkEVM L2 chains and it is sensible and important for Aave to deploy on zkEVM, especially given market trends. Moreso, Aave v3 has been successfully deployed on the ZkEVM testnet for approximately 6 months (since October 2022). Since ZkEVM is EVM-equivalent, deployment would require minimal development work, and risk is mitigated by onboarding only strictly limited assets (only wETH, wMATIC, and USDC as collateral assets and USDC as a borrowable asset). One point of concern is that Gauntlet and Chaos Labs have not vetted this proposal and the risk parameters. However, given that this is a temp check, there is enough time for approval by Gauntlet and Chaos Labs on the risk parameters, and their validation is needed before the on-chain vote.
Therefore, we will vote YES in favour of this proposal.
