Developing. Some claims here are not yet confirmed; they are listed apart from the confirmed facts. A new version replaces this one when the primary evidence changes.

## What happened

Aave's preliminary governance poll supported advancing a proposal to list lisUSD in the Aave V3 BNB Core pool.

## What changed

lisUSD entered Aave's formal asset-onboarding and risk-review pipeline. The proposal would add a new stablecoin reserve if it later passed ARFC and on-chain governance.

## What did not change

The TEMP CHECK did not authorize or execute a lisUSD reserve, set final risk parameters, or alter Ketju's Ethereum sGHO-only Aave approval.

## Confirmed

- The official proposal sought to onboard lisUSD to Aave V3 on BNB Chain.
- The TEMP CHECK reached quorum and passed on March 26 with ARFC identified as the next stage.
- No final reserve parameters were specified at the TEMP CHECK stage.

## Still open

- Asset audits, collateral composition, liquidity concentration, peg resilience, caps, and liquidation parameters required further review.
- The separate March 15 LISUSD price deviation was not established by primary evidence and had not been reconciled in this proposal stage.
- Final ARFC and on-chain approval remained outstanding.

## What it means for an advisor

- Monitor the ARFC for primary risk-provider analysis and final parameters.
- Do not treat preliminary governance support as a live or Ketju-approved reserve.
- Preserve the March peg observation as an unresolved diligence question rather than a confirmed impairment.
