Aave proposal would add non-collateral USDG borrowing on Arbitrum
The Ledger · · Ketju Research
Affects: Aave v3 (protocol)
What happened
TokenLogic proposed onboarding USDG to Aave V3 Arbitrum as a supplyable and borrowable stablecoin.
What changed
The research perimeter now includes a concrete proposal for a USDG reserve with a 30 million supply cap, 27.6 million borrow cap, and Chainlink-based capped pricing.
What did not change
The record does not establish a live listing. Collateral use is proposed to remain disabled, with zero LTV and liquidation threshold.
Confirmed
- The proposal specifies a 30,000,000 USDG supply cap and 27,600,000 USDG borrow cap.
- It proposes disabled collateral use and a 10% reserve factor.
- It proposes a Chainlink USDG/USD feed with a capped adapter at 1.04.
- Final parameters and oracle configuration remain subject to risk and technical service-provider review.
- The stated next step is escalation to AIP voting after feedback.
Still open
- Final risk recommendations, adapter address, governance approval, and deployment are not established.
- The proposal describes an Ethereum-to-Arbitrum LayerZero OFT dependency; its precise authority and deployment mapping require review before treating the reserve as available.
What it means for an advisor
- Add the pending reserve to the Aave diligence file and monitor its final caps and oracle configuration.
- Before recognizing the reserve as available, map the USDG cross-chain authority and confirm final on-chain parameters.
- The proposed zero LTV does not fire the memo's bridged-collateral-above-80%-LTV trigger.
