[Gauntlet] Risk Parameter Recommendations for deUSD & sdeUSD

executedNov 3, 2025, 10:10 AM UTCby680x683a…6c02

01Summary

AISummary by Kvorumclaude-haiku-4-5

Gauntlet proposes to eliminate supply caps for deUSD and sdeUSD tokens across all Ethereum Comet markets (USDC, USDT, USDS) and increase liquidation penalties from 4-6% to 8% for both assets to reduce protocol risk.

Type
parameter change

Key changes

  • Set supply cap to 0 for deUSD across all three Comet markets (USDC, USDT, USDS), reducing from 8,000,000(high)
  • Set supply cap to 0 for sdeUSD across all three Comet markets (USDC, USDT, USDS), reducing from 5,000,000(high)
  • Increase liquidation penalty for deUSD from 4% to 8% on USDC and USDT markets, and from 6% to 8% on USDS market(high)
  • Increase liquidation penalty for sdeUSD from 4% to 8% on USDC and USDT markets, and from 6% to 8% on USDS market(high)

Notable concerns

  • Complete elimination of supply caps for deUSD and sdeUSD removes ability to supply these assets to the protocol
  • Liquidation penalty increases reduce borrower incentives and may impact positions
  • Changes applied across multiple Comet instances requiring coordinated configurator updates

sentiment · mixedthread · mixed

Arguments for

  • Increasing liquidation penalties for deUSD and sdeUSD to 8% better aligns liquidation incentives and safeguards protocol solvency under stressed market conditions.— Gauntlet

Arguments against

  • Setting supply caps to zero has no practical effect since supplies are already maxed out and does not address the heightened risks that require immediate adjustments to collateral factor, liquidation factor, and liquidation penalty.— Humpy

Unresolved concerns

  • Whether lowering collateral factor and liquidation factor for deUSD and sdeUSD should have been addressed in addition to or instead of liquidation penalty increases.— Humpy
  • What specific backing concerns regarding deUSD prompted the precautionary supply cap changes and what monitoring and analysis will determine when caps can be restored.— Gauntlet

Notable participants

  • GauntletRisk analysis firm proposing supply cap reductions and liquidation penalty increases for deUSD and sdeUSD.
  • HumpyCommunity member advocating for more aggressive risk parameter reductions including collateral factor and liquidation factor adjustments.
