Supply Cap

Given the use of exchange rate oracles, gauntlet advises setting caps to half of the available unwrap limit for wrsETH to rsETH, since unwrapping wrsETH to access the underlying or staked ETH is only possible through conversion to rsETH.

Chain Unwrap Limit Supply Cap
Optimism 563.13 230
Base 438 220

Collateral Factor, Liquidation Factor and Liquidation Penalty

Gauntlet recommends aligning the CF, LF and LP with those recommended in this post, contigent on the use of Exchange Rate Oracles.
