- parameter change
Key changes
- Enable USDT as collateral in Aave ETH V3 pool(high)
- Set Loan to Value (LTV) parameter to 74%(high)
- Set Liquidation threshold to 76%(high)
- Set Liquidation bonus to 4.5%(medium)
- Set Liquidation Protocol Fee to 10%(medium)
Notable concerns
- Risk parameters are being aligned with USDC without explicit discussion of USDT-specific risks

02Description
Simple Summary
This ARFC proposes an update to the risk parameters for USDT in the Aave ETH V3 pool, enabling it as collateral.
Motivation
This proposal aims to unlock the potential of USDT as collateral within the Aave ETH V3 pool. By aligning the risk parameters of USDT with those of USDC, we anticipate an increase in borrowing power for users. This change is expected to stimulate borrowing volume on Aave, thereby contributing to the protocol’s revenue. The activation of collateral power for USDT is a strategic move towards creating a more dynamic, efficient, and profitable liquidity environment within the Aave ETH V3 pool.
Specification
Ticker: USDT
Contract Address: 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7`

03Mismatch analysis
The proposal follows the standard Aave governance pattern: the on-chain action is a single execute() call to a payload contract address, which is typical short-executor boilerplate used across Aave ARFC proposals. The actual risk parameter changes (LTV, liquidation threshold, liquidation bonus, protocol fee) are implemented inside the target contract's bytecode via delegatecall, and are not individually visible in the decoded calldata provided here — only the entrypoint call is decoded. Because this is the expected and routine execution pattern for this contract type (referenced directly in the proposal's linked Solidity implementation file, which matches the target/payload naming convention 'AaveV3_Eth_AaveV3USDTRiskParams_20231107'), the decoded action does not contradict the description; it simply does not expose parameter-level detail for comparison. There is no numeric mismatch to flag because no parameter values are visible in the decoded action to compare against the prose's stated 74% LTV, 76% liquidation threshold, 4.5% bonus, and 10% protocol fee. Given the lack of granular calldata detail, confidence in a full parameter-level verification is low, but nothing in the visible decoded action contradicts the description, so the assessment defaults to consistent rather than flagging an unverifiable claim as a discrepancy.I double me re-populme the schema key properly.session Wait I need to fix the key name typo 'ds cr epancies' — must output correct JSON.session Let me finalize.」,
