[Gauntlet] Ethereum Top-up and Scroll USDC Risk Parameter Recommendations V1
01Summary
Gauntlet proposes to top up Ethereum rewards contract with 28,125 COMP tokens and adjust risk parameters for WETH and wstETH on Scroll USDC Comet, including reducing supply caps, collateral factors, and liquidation penalties while significantly increasing the borrow rate slope.
- Type
- parameter change
Key changes
- Grant 28,125 COMP tokens to Ethereum rewards contract (0x1B0e765F6224C21223AeA2af16c1C46E38885a40)(medium)
- Increase WETH borrow rate slope low from 0.0278 to 0.0944 on Scroll USDC Comet(high)
- Reduce WETH supply cap from 4,000 to 60 on Scroll USDC Comet(high)
- Reduce WETH collateral factor from 80% to 40% on Scroll USDC Comet(high)
- Increase WETH liquidation penalty from 10% to 20% on Scroll USDC Comet(high)
- Reduce wstETH supply cap from 1,000 to 4 on Scroll USDC Comet(high)
- Reduce wstETH collateral factor from 75% to 32% on Scroll USDC Comet(high)
- Increase wstETH liquidation penalty from 15% to 30% on Scroll USDC Comet(high)
Notable concerns
- Significant reduction in WETH supply cap (98.5% decrease) and collateral factor (50% decrease) may impact liquidity
- Extreme reduction in wstETH supply cap (99.6% decrease) and collateral factor (57.3% decrease) may severely limit wstETH usage as collateral
- Substantial increase in liquidation penalties makes borrowing more risky for users
- Cross-chain message passing to Scroll adds execution complexity

Specification
The proposal updates the parameters by using the respective methods on the Configurator.
By approving this proposal, you agree that any services provided by Gauntlet shall be governed by the terms of service available at gauntlet.xyz/tos
03Mismatch analysis
The proposal describes two logical actions: (1) a COMP top-up of 28,125 tokens to the Ethereum Rewards contract, and (2) a set of risk-parameter updates (borrow rate slope low, WETH/wstETH supply caps, collateral factors, liquidation penalties) on the Scroll USDC Comet. The decoded calldata contains exactly two top-level actions: action 0 is a straightforward _grantComp call for 28125000000000000000000 (28,125 * 1e18), which matches the stated COMP amount precisely. Action 1 is a cross-chain sendMessage to Scroll whose embedded calldata, once inspected, contains the expected sequence of Configurator function selectors (updateAssetBorrowCollateralFactor, updateAssetLiquidationFactor, updateAssetSupplyCap for two assets, setBorrowPerYearInterestRateSlopeLow, and deployAndUpgradeTo) targeting the Comet/Configurator addresses on Scroll, consistent with the described parameter changes for WETH and wstETH plus the interest-rate slope update. The 0.1 ETH value attached to the cross-chain message is a routine bridging/gas fee for L1->L2 message relay and is not something the description would be expected to mention. I could not fully decode every embedded numeric parameter to the last digit (the raw hex-encoded values for CF/LP/supply caps), but the structure, asset addresses, and function selectors align exactly with the two described changes, and this matches the standard pattern used in prior Gauntlet Scroll proposals. Given the strong structural match but incomplete byte-level verification of every embedded numeric literal, I rate confidence as medium and find no discrepancies worth flagging under the given conservative criteria.
