Onboard syrupUSDC to Aave V3 Base Instance
01Summary
Proposal to onboard syrupUSDC to Aave V3 Base Instance as a collateral asset with a 50M supply cap, paired with an eMode allowing USDC and GHO borrowing against syrupUSDC collateral at 90% max LTV.
- Type
- protocol addition
Key changes
- Onboard syrupUSDC as collateral asset on Aave V3 Base Instance with supply cap of 50,000,000(high)
- Create eMode for syrupUSDC/stablecoin allowing USDC and GHO borrowing with 90% max LTV and 92% liquidation threshold(high)
- Set collateral parameters including 0.05% LTV, 0.1% liquidation threshold, 4% liquidation bonus, and 50% reserve factor(medium)
- Enable flashloans on syrupUSDC while disabling borrowing, isolation mode, and siloed borrowing(medium)
- Designate 0xac140648435d03f784879cd789130F22Ef588Fcd as emission admin for syrupUSDC and corresponding aToken(low)
Notable concerns
- Very low standalone LTV (0.05%) and liquidation threshold (0.1%) suggest syrupUSDC is not intended as primary collateral outside eMode
- Oracle uses 7-day minimum snapshot delay with 8.04% max yearly growth cap to protect against price manipulation
- Borrowing is disabled for syrupUSDC itself despite being collateral, limiting direct use cases
- Proposal proceeded under Direct-to-AIP framework rather than standard governance process

02Description
Simple Summary
This AIP proposes to onboard syrupUSDC to Aave V3 Base Instance.
Motivation
With the recent approval of syrupUSDC on the Core Instance following BGD Labs’ updated technical review we now propose to onboard syrupUSDC to the Base Instance. We propose this under the Direct to AIP framework.
We believe that the Base instance has strong growth prospects and with an increase in high demand collateral assets we will see rate of growth pick up. syrupUSDC is a good candidate for onboarding to Base for these reasons.
We recommend an eMode be created with USDC and GHO as borrow assets.
