[TEMP CHECK] Onboard USDS and sUSDS to Aave v3

Governance New Asset

I think this is an extremely irresponsible suggestion by the ACI. Let’s think about this:

1. The tokens haven’t even launched yet
2. These assets likely fail 6 of the 7 categories of the Risk Quantification Criterion
3. There is no oracle from Chainlink, or likely any at all at launch
4. DAI is not a cornerstone in the Aave ecosystem - in fact Stani himself has mentioned he was in full support of offboarding DAI from Aave completely

If incentives are all that’s needed to get a new asset onto Aave then there would be proposals for new markets every single day.

@69420 brings up many valid points and I would like to see a proper discussion around what the processes are here about new assets.

I recall many assets in the past being delayed or outright not listed at all for relatively minor reasons. Certainly, USDS and sUSDS represent opportunities for Aave but we should have consistent guidelines that are abided by in asset listings. As it is now, there seems to be little transparency in how certain assets end up being listed and how others stay in temp check. @ApuMallku can probably attest to the number of times they’ve revisited a thread to see if there would be progress on the asset being listed and getting nothing in response.
