Risk Recommendations
01Summary
Gauntlet recommends reducing risk parameters for COMP and USDC across multiple Ethereum markets by setting collateral factors to 0%, pausing COMP borrows, and capping borrow/supply amounts to 1 token. The analysis indicates no current liquidations from these changes but proposes them as precautionary measures.
- Type
- parameter change
Key changes
- Set COMP collateral factor to 0% on Ethereum v2 market(high)
- Pause COMP borrowing on Ethereum v2 market(high)
- Set COMP borrow cap to 1 token on Ethereum v2 market(high)
- Set COMP borrow collateral factor to 0% on Ethereum USDC Comet(high)
- Set COMP supply cap to 1 token on Ethereum USDC Comet(high)
- Set USDC borrow collateral factor to 0% on Ethereum USDT Comet(high)
- Set USDC supply cap to 1 token on Ethereum USDT Comet(high)
Notable concerns
- These parameter reductions are precautionary measures despite analysis showing no immediate new liquidatable positions
- Top 4 highest-risk user positions with Health Factors below 1.17 may become closer to liquidation threshold

Risk Recommendations
Summary
Gauntlet recommends the following risk parameters for the listed assets:
| Asset | Market | Collateral Factor | Borrow Cap | Supply Cap | Pause Borrows |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| COMP | Ethereum v2 | 0% | 1 | N/A | True |
| COMP | Ethereum USDC Comet | 0% | N/A | 1 | N/A |
| USDC | Ethereum USDT Comet | 0% | N/A | 1 | N/A |
Analysis
Risk-off Liquidations
The recommended Collateral Factor decreases would not currently cause new liquidatable user positions on Ethereum v2 and USDC/USDT comets.
The below figure shows the top 4 highest borrowing user positions whose Health Factors are less than 1.17 (Borrow Usage greater than 85%) and become > 5% closer to becoming liquidatable after the Collateral Factor decreases.

Lowering the Borrow Caps and Supply Caps on v3 and v3 markets as a precautionary measure.
