Add deUSD as collateral into cUSDCv3 on Mainnet

Proposal summary

WOOF! proposes to add deUSD into cUSDCv3 on Ethereum network. This proposal takes the governance steps recommended and necessary to update a Compound III USDC market on Ethereum. 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 on the recommendations from Gauntlet.

Further detailed information can be found on the corresponding proposal pull request and forum discussion.

Proposal Actions

The first action adds deUSD asset as collateral with corresponding configurations.

The second action deploys and upgrades Comet to a new version.

03Mismatch analysis

AIMismatch analysis by Kvorumclaude-sonnet-5
Consistent

The proposal describes two actions: (1) adding deUSD as a new collateral asset to the cUSDCv3 market with Gauntlet-recommended risk parameters, and (2) deploying and upgrading Comet to a new version to activate the change. The decoded calldata matches exactly: action 0 calls addAsset on the Configurator for the same Comet proxy, supplying a full asset configuration (oracle, decimals, collateral factors, liquidation factor, supply cap) consistent with a new collateral listing, and action 1 calls deployAndUpgradeTo on the same Comet proxy, which is the standard mechanism to deploy and activate a new Comet implementation after a configuration change. The description does not make specific numeric claims (e.g., exact collateral factor percentages) that could be checked against the calldata values, so there is nothing to contradict; the values present (88%/90%/96%/8M supply cap) are plausible and consistent with a typical Gauntlet-parameterized collateral addition. No target mismatches, omitted major actions, or extra claims were found. This is a standard, well-formed two-step Compound III collateral-addition proposal with description and calldata in agreement.

Arguments for

  • deUSD has strong institutional and retail demand, with significant TVL/market cap growth and an estimated $30M+ in institutional deposits expected within the first week of listing.— Cole0x
  • deUSD offers attractive native yield (10-30%+ APY for staked deUSD) that would make it a compelling collateral market for Compound users.— Cole0x
  • The asset has undergone multiple reputable audits (Trail of Bits, Quantstamp) and the team is willing to undergo KYC and is doxxed, addressing basic safety concerns.— Cole0x, misher
  • Independent risk analysis shows deUSD has reasonable market cap, trading volume, and liquidity metrics making it suitable for listing as collateral.— Sudipan_Chainrisk
  • Gauntlet provided detailed, data-driven risk parameter recommendations (supply caps, collateral/liquidation factors, penalties) calibrated to liquidity and redemption pathways, supporting a controlled listing.— Gauntlet
  • The proposal followed the full technical governance process with successful simulations, tests, and scenario runs, indicating technical readiness for deployment.— dmitriywoofsoftware
  • OpenZeppelin's review found the proposal's description and actions accurate and aligned with Gauntlet's recommendations, with no issues beyond the oracle concern.— jbass-oz

Arguments against

None surfaced.

Unresolved concerns

  • sdeUSD has low trading volume and high slippage (e.g., 18% slippage on a 1,000 sdeUSD swap to ETH), leading to a recommendation to observe performance for months before listing it as collateral.— Sudipan_Chainrisk
  • The deUSD/USD Chainlink price feed is labeled 'High Market Risk' and a similar feed on Avalanche previously spiked and caused user liquidation losses, posing an oracle risk for Mainnet deployment.— jbass-oz, dmitriywoofsoftware
  • There are no alternative price feed options currently available for deUSD on Mainnet, meaning the community must either accept the risky feed or postpone deployment.— dmitriywoofsoftware
  • Suggestion for a 3-6 month trial period with more conservative risk settings before moving to standard stablecoin parameters was raised but not clearly adopted in the final Gauntlet recommendations.— misher

Notable participants

  • Cole0xProposer from Elixir who introduced deUSD/sdeUSD and provided background, motivation, and responses to audit/KYC questions.
  • misherCommunity member who raised audit/KYC conditions and proposed a phased trial approach for listing sdeUSD.
  • Sudipan_ChainriskProvided an independent market and liquidity analysis of deUSD/sdeUSD, recommending caution on sdeUSD listing.
  • GauntletRisk manager who delivered detailed collateral parameter recommendations (supply caps, CF, LF, liquidation penalty) across multiple Comet markets.
  • dmitriywoofsoftwareWOOF! representative who executed the technical governance process, submitted PRs, proposals, and flagged the oracle feed limitation.
  • jbass-ozOpenZeppelin reviewer who audited the live proposals and flagged the high-risk Chainlink price feed as a medium severity issue.
