Aave Risk Steward proposes higher USDe base rates and expanded X Layer PT capacity
The Ledger · · Ketju Research
Affects: Aave v3 (protocol)
What happened
LlamaRisk proposed a new Risk Steward parameter round.
What changed
The proposal raises USDe base rates by 100 basis points on five deployments, doubles the X Layer PT-USDG supply cap, and lowers X Layer USD₮0 and USDG slope1 by 50 basis points.
What did not change
The record does not establish execution. USDe slopes and optimal utilization are unchanged in this proposal.
Confirmed
- Proposed USDe base rates rise from 3% to 4% on Core, Plasma, Monad, Mantle, and Avalanche.
- The proposed PT-USDG-29OCT2026 supply cap rises from 35 million to 70 million.
- Proposed X Layer USD₮0 and USDG slope1 values fall from 5% to 4.5%.
- Implementation is described as a next step through the Risk Steward process.
Still open
- Execution transactions and effective reserve configurations.
What it means for an advisor
- Monitor implementation and refresh affected borrowing-cost and PT exit-liquidity assumptions before relying on the expanded capacity.
