Supply Cap Recommendations

Current Base WETH weETH 15000

Proposed Arbitrum WETH rsETH 1750
Current Arbitrum WETH rETH 7500
Proposed Arbitrum WETH rETH 3750

Rationale

The outlined markets have demonstrated low user demand over the past 30 days, with average supply cap utilization consistently staying below 10%. To reduce risk exposure to the protocol, we recommend lowering the supply caps for these markets by 50%. We note that cap reductions will not affect currently open positions.

Comet Asset Supply Cap Utilization (average over last 30 days)
Base WETH weETH 2.01%
Arbitrum WETH weETH 6.63%
Arbitrum WETH ezETH 9.31%
Arbitrum WETH rsETH 9.88%
Arbitrum WETH rETH 0.19%

Next Steps

  • Gauntlet will continue monitoring market utilization and propose future cap adjustments accordingly.
