Hi all,

On July 12nd, I mistakenly sent 25,000 USDC directly to the Aave V3 Pool contract on ETH instead of supplying via the interface.

- Tx hash: 0x6a4cd27125fe4916909efdb9e6cc79f298ce514e56bd4851e92641f71c666b5c
- Pool proxy address: 0x98c23e9d8f34fefb1b7bd6a91b7ff122f4e16f5c
- Sending wallet: 0x32fcf748e4dcebd1081bfcccb94eb721101f27c0 (I can sign a message to prove ownership)

I understand from Rescue Mission Phases 1–3 that recovery of tokens sent directly to upgradeable Aave contracts is technically feasible via a governance-approved implementation upgrade, with claims distributed through the AaveMerkleDistributor to the original sending address.

Request to BGD Labs / ACI / the community: could this transfer be registered for inclusion in a future rescue phase covering the V3 Pool? Happy to provide any additional verification needed.

Thank you.
