[Gauntlet] Recommendations for Low Utilization Assets on Optimism and Polygon

Simple Summary

Gauntlet recommends the following supply cap adjustments to the protocol:

Supply Cap Recommendations

Comet Asset Supply Cap
Optimism WETH rETH 5,000→1,250
Optimism WETH WBTC 60→15
Polygon USDC stMATIC 8M→2M
Polygon USDC MaticX 3.2M→800K
Polygon USDT MaticX 4.16M→1.04M
Polygon USDT stMATIC 1.5M→375K

Rationale

The markets below have demonstrated low user demand over the past 30 days, with maximum supply cap utilization consistently staying below 13%. To reduce risk exposure to the protocol, we recommend lowering the supply caps for these markets by 75%. We note that cap reductions will not affect currently open positions.

Comet Asset Supply Cap Utilization (maximum over last 30 days)
Optimism WETH rETH 1.55%
Optimism WETH WBTC 2.61%
Polygon USDC stMATIC 0.1%
Polygon USDC MaticX 12.86%
Polygon USDT MaticX 1.21%
Polygon USDT stMATIC 0.02%
