Add USDC as collateral into cWETHv3 on Base
01Summary
Compound Growth Program proposes to add USDC as collateral to the cWETHv3 market on Base network. The proposal executes an addAsset call with risk parameters recommended by Gauntlet and has been validated through market simulations.
- Type
- protocol addition
Key changes
- Add USDC (0x833589fcd6edb6e08f4c7c32d4f71b54bda02913) as collateral asset to WETH Comet on Base(high)
- Set risk parameters for USDC collateral based on Gauntlet recommendations(high)
- Deploy and upgrade governance receiver on Base to execute collateral addition(medium)
Notable concerns
- Risk parameters and market simulations should be reviewed from referenced Gauntlet recommendations
- Cross-chain bridge call execution requires proper governance receiver setup on Base

02Description
Add USDC as collateral into cWETHv3 on Base
Proposal summary
Compound Growth Program [AlphaGrowth] proposes to add USDC into cWETHv3 on Base network. This proposal takes the governance steps recommended and necessary to update a Compound III WETH market on Base. Simulations have confirmed the market’s readiness, as much as possible, using the Comet scenario suite. The new parameters include setting the risk parameters based off of the recommendations from Gauntlet.
Further detailed information can be found on the corresponding proposal pull request and forum discussion.
Proposal Actions
The first proposal action adds USDC to the WETH Comet on Base. This sends the encoded addAsset and deployAndUpgradeTo calls across the bridge to the governance receiver on Base.
03Mismatch analysis
The description states that the proposal adds USDC as collateral to the WETH Comet (cWETHv3) on Base, via a bridged addAsset + deployAndUpgradeTo call sent to the governance receiver, with risk parameters set per Gauntlet's recommendations. Decoding the single on-chain action confirms exactly this: a sendMessage call to what appears to be the L1 bridge/messenger targeting the Base governance receiver address, carrying an ABI-encoded payload that decodes into an addAsset call configuring Base USDC (0x833589fc...29130) as a new collateral asset (with a price feed, 6 decimals, and CF/liquidation/supply-cap parameters) followed by a deployAndUpgradeTo call to push the new configuration live. There is no numeric claim in the description that can be checked against the encoded risk parameters (the description defers to an external Gauntlet forum post rather than stating specific percentages), so no value mismatch can be identified, and none of the addresses or mechanics conflict with what is described. The action count (one bridged action) also matches the 'first proposal action' language. No omissions, extra claims, or target mismatches were found. Confidence is high because the calldata cleanly decodes into the exact function calls (addAsset, deployAndUpgradeTo) named in the description, and the collateral asset address matches canonical Base USDC.
