Aave executes 50% reserve factors across its Scroll market

What happened

Aave governance executed a 50% reserve factor for WETH, weETH, wstETH, USDC, and SCR on the Scroll instance in response to reported Scroll governance instability.

What changed

A larger share of borrower interest began accruing to protocol reserves rather than suppliers across all listed Scroll assets.

What did not change

This payload did not itself change supply caps, borrow caps, collateral factors, liquidation thresholds, or the Scroll chain's governance.

Confirmed

• Aave governance proposal 374 executed on September 16, 2025.
• The execution sent payload 46 to Scroll.
• The reserve factor became 50% for WETH, weETH, wstETH, USDC, and SCR.

Still open

• Separate risk-steward changes referenced by the proposal were not established by this payload record.
• The duration of the conservative settings and the resolution of the cited Scroll governance instability remained open.

What it means for an advisor

• Review supplier-yield assumptions for any Aave Scroll exposure.
• Keep the Scroll deployment distinct from approved Aave markets on other chains.
• Track separate cap changes and any later reversal of the 50% reserve factors.
