[Gauntlet] Supply Cap Recommendations (04/28/25) pushed by WOOF!
01Summary
Gauntlet recommends increasing supply caps for four assets across Compound V3 markets: weETH on Mainnet USDT Comet (12k to 18k), tETH on Mainnet WETH Comet (4k to 10k), WETH on Unichain USDC Comet (50 to 5k), and UNI on Unichain USDC Comet (7k to 100k). This proposal is submitted by WOOF! on behalf of Gauntlet due to Gauntlet reaching maximum active proposals.

- parameter change
Key changes
- Increase Mainnet V3 USDT Comet weETH Supply Cap from 12,000 to 18,000(medium)
- Increase Mainnet V3 WETH Comet tETH Supply Cap from 4,000 to 10,000(medium)
- Increase Unichain V3 USDC Comet WETH Supply Cap from 50 to 5,000(high)
- Increase Unichain V3 USDC Comet UNI Supply Cap from 7,000 to 100,000(high)

[Gauntlet] Supply Cap Recommendations (04/28/25) pushed by WOOF!
Simple Summary
Note
This proposal is proposed by WOOF! due to Gauntlet reaching the maximum number of active proposals using their delegated wallets. Live proposals by Gauntlet:
Simple Summary
Gauntlet recommends the following risk recommendations to the protocol:
-
Increase Mainnet V3 USDT Comet’s weETH Supply Cap from 12,000 to 18,000
-
Increase Mainnet V3 WETH Comet’s tETH Supply cap from 4,000 to 10,000
-
Increase Unichain V3 USDC Comet’s WETH Supply cap from 50 to 5,000
-
Increase Unichain V3 USDC Comet’s UNI Supply cap from 7,000 to 100k
Motivation
See full analysis below:
[Gauntlet] - Supply Cap Recommendations
Specification
The proposal updates the parameters by using the respective methods on the Configurator.
03Mismatch analysis
Compared each decoded action to the four supply-cap increases claimed in the description. Action 0 (Mainnet USDT Comet, weETH asset) sets the cap to 18000e18, matching the claimed increase to 18,000. Action 2 (Mainnet WETH Comet, tETH asset) sets the cap to 10000e18, matching the claimed increase to 10,000. Action 4 is a cross-chain sendMessage to Unichain whose embedded calldata contains two updateAssetSupplyCap calls (decoded via the encoded function selectors and arguments) for WETH (target 0x4200...0006, the standard L2 WETH predeploy) at 5000e18 and UNI at 100000e18, matching the two Unichain claims, plus a deployAndUpgradeTo to finalize both. Actions 1 and 3 are standard deployAndUpgradeTo calls that apply the configurator changes to the comet proxies - this is routine bookkeeping for Compound governance and expected/omitted from the prose without being misleading. No value, target, or direction mismatches were found; all four described supply cap changes are faithfully represented in the calldata, and no undisclosed significant actions (e.g., fund transfers, role grants) are present.

- [Gauntlet] Supply Cap Recommendation Proposals ↗discourse · high confidence
Arguments for
- Supply cap increases are justified by high utilization rates (75%+) on various assets across chains, indicating market demand and the need to prevent caps from constraining legitimate user activity.— Gauntlet
- Liquidation analysis shows acceptable slippage levels relative to liquidation penalties when caps are increased, indicating that larger caps can be safely accommodated without excessive risk.— Gauntlet
- Top suppliers maintain strong health factors (often >1.4 to >4), demonstrating that large position holders are well-collateralized and pose low liquidation risk even at higher caps.— Gauntlet
- Exchange rate oracles enable safer cap increases for assets like ezETH, wstETH, and weETH because liquidation pathways are constrained, reducing systemic risk from large caps.— Gauntlet
- Asset supplies are growing and circulating supply on various chains supports higher cap levels relative to current utilization, allowing protocol to accommodate organic growth.— Gauntlet
Arguments against
None surfaced.
Unresolved concerns
- sFRAX supply cap was increased since 12/9 but utilization data only shows through 12/8, leaving unclear whether the additional increase to 20M was justified by actual demand.— Tane
- Top supplier data shown in images does not match the supplied amounts, raising questions about whether other large suppliers exist that should be displayed for transparency.— Tane
- Top supplier addresses should be provided in text format rather than images for accessibility and to enable community verification of supplier identities and positions.— Tane
Notable participants
- GauntletPrimary proposer issuing repeated supply cap recommendations backed by utilization data, slippage analysis, and top supplier health metrics.
- TaneCommunity member raising questions about data currency, completeness of supplier disclosure, and format of supplier information.
- dmitriywoofsoftwareCommunity participant who supported and accelerated one proposal to push it on-chain.
