Add deUSD as collateral into cUSDTv3 on Mainnet

Proposal summary

WOOF! proposes to add deUSD into cUSDTv3 on Ethereum network. This proposal takes the governance steps recommended and necessary to update a Compound III USDT 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 cUSDTv3 market on Ethereum with parameters set according to Gauntlet's published recommendations, and (2) deploying and upgrading the Comet implementation to reflect this change. The decoded calldata contains exactly two actions matching this structure: an addAsset call on the Configurator contract targeting the same Comet (USDT) proxy address, and a deployAndUpgradeTo call targeting the same Comet proxy and Configurator proxy. The target addresses are consistent across both actions (same Comet proxy and Configurator proxy referenced in both calls), which supports that this is a single coherent market update. The description does not state specific numeric risk parameters (collateral factors, supply cap) but explicitly defers to the linked Gauntlet forum post for those figures, so the specific values in the calldata (88% borrowCF, 90% liquidateCF, 96% liquidationFactor, 8M supply cap) cannot be checked against a prose claim and are not flagged as mismatches. No extra or omitted actions were found, targets align with the described USDT Comet market, and no misleading characterizations were detected. Overall, the description accurately and completely reflects the on-chain actions.

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.
