weETH Onbaording
01Summary
Add Ether.fi's weETH liquid restaking token to Aave V3 Ethereum with conservative risk parameters (72.5% LTV, 8,000 weETH supply cap, 800 weETH borrow cap) to enhance asset diversity and ecosystem liquidity. weETH allows users to stake ETH, earn staking rewards, and participate in EigenLayer native restaking.
- Type
- protocol addition
Key changes
- Add weETH as borrowable collateral asset to Aave V3 Ethereum with isolation mode enabled(high)
- Set supply cap at 8,000 weETH and borrow cap at 800 weETH to manage risk exposure(high)
- Configure LTV at 72.5% and liquidation threshold at 75% with 7.5% liquidation bonus(high)
- Enable flashloan functionality for weETH(medium)
- Disable stable borrowing and siloed borrowing for weETH(medium)
Notable concerns
- weETH introduces exposure to Ether.fi protocol and EigenLayer restaking risks
- Liquid restaking tokens carry smart contract and operator risks
- Supply and borrow caps are relatively conservative, potentially limiting liquidity
- Protocol relies on Ether.fi maintaining 100% redeemability and healthy reserves

02Description
Simple Summary
The current ARFC seeks to add Ether.fi Liquid Restaking Token weETH to Aave V3 Ethereum, after the successful TEMP CHECK and TEMP CHECK Snapshot .
The intention behind this initiative is to enhance the diversity of assets on Aave and bolster liquidity within the ecosystem.
Motivation
eETH is an LRT that allows users to stake their ETH, accrue staking rewards, and receive additional rewards through native restaking on EigenLayer. As of February 3rd, approximately 290,310 ETH ($670M) in TVL has been deposited into the ether.fi 1 protocol, and XX has been natively restaked in EigenLayer.
Ether.fi stands as the pioneering decentralized and non-custodial delegated staking protocol featuring an LRT (eETH). A notable feature of ether.fi is the control it provides stakers over their keys. The team behind the protocol is guided by the following principles:
- Decentralization is the foremost objective. Ether.fi is unwavering in its commitment to maintain the protocol’s non-custodial and decentralized nature, ensuring that stakers always have control over their ETH.
- Ether.fi operates as a legitimate business with a sustainable revenue model, with the team dedicated to its long-term success. There is no place for deceptive or unsustainable financial practices.
- Ether.fi is committed to always acting in the best interest of the Ethereum community. In the event of any missteps, the team at ether.fi will take responsibility and swiftly rectify the situation.
Risks:
ether.fi ’s LRT eETH is 100% redeemable. Users who deposit ETH into the protocol can withdraw their stake at any time. The holdings are publicly auditable on-chain and the protocol retains healthy reserves to offset any losses.
Proof of Liquidity and Deposit Commitments
Anyone who deposits weETH into Aave will accumulate ether.fi and EigenLayer points to be used for future incentives.
Users are given eETH on a 1:1 basis with a minimum deposit of 0.001 ETH.
ether.fi is also the first LSP to natively restake on EigenLayer — a move that helps improve network efficiency and provides stakers with additional rewards for their network contributions. ether.fi has also launched a series of partnerships with DeFi protocols to incentivize users and drive liquidity (weETH) to various platforms.

03Mismatch analysis
The proposal follows the standard Aave governance pattern: a single on-chain action that calls execute() on a payload contract, which internally performs the multi-step listing logic (adding weETH as a reserve, setting LTV, LT, caps, rate curves, oracle, etc.) described in the prose. The decoded calldata only exposes this outer execute() call and does not reveal the internal state changes it performs, so the specific numeric risk parameters listed in the Specification table cannot be independently verified against calldata from the data provided. This is a routine and expected structure for Aave V3 listing proposals (the description even links to the exact implementation and test contracts), so there is no evidence of a mismatch, hidden transfer, or redirected control. Because the internal details of the execute() call are opaque in this decoded output, confidence in a full parameter-by-parameter comparison is low, but nothing in the available data contradicts the description, and the pattern itself is consistent with how these proposals are normally structured. No value mismatches, target mismatches, omissions, or misleading phrasing can be identified given the information available.
