## What happened

Aave governance executed an increase in the Linea wrsETH supply cap from 6,400 to 70,000.

## What changed

The maximum permitted wrsETH supply on the Linea Aave market increased by more than tenfold, materially expanding the market's possible liquid-restaking exposure.

## What did not change

The payload did not change wrsETH's oracle, liquidation thresholds, loan-to-value setting, borrowability, or underlying bridge and wrapping dependencies.

## Confirmed

- Aave governance proposal 372 executed on September 15, 2025.
- The execution sent payload 13 to Linea.
- The wrsETH supply cap increased from 6,400 to 70,000.

## Still open

- Actual cap utilization and market liquidity after execution required monitoring.
- The event record did not establish stressed exit liquidity for wrsETH or its underlying restaking and bridge dependencies.

## What it means for an advisor

- Review the Aave memo's Linea-specific liquid-restaking and wrap-depth exposure.
- Confirm whether any approved or client-held market could inherit losses from the expanded wrsETH collateral path.
- Monitor cap utilization, oracle deviations, liquidation liquidity, and bridge dependencies.
