02Description
Add USDC and USDT as collaterals into cWBTCv3 on Mainnet
Proposal summary
WOOF proposes to add USDC and USDT into cWBTCv3 on Ethereum network. This proposal takes the governance steps recommended and necessary to update a Compound III WBTC 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 USDC asset as collateral with corresponding configurations.
The second action adds USDT asset as collateral with corresponding configurations.
The third action upgrades Comet to a new version.
03Mismatch analysis
The description states three actions: (1) add USDC as collateral to cWBTCv3, (2) add USDT as collateral to cWBTCv3, (3) upgrade the Comet proxy to a new implementation. The decoded calldata shows exactly three actions matching this sequence: two addAsset calls on the Configurator targeting the same cWBTCv3 Comet proxy (0xe85Dc5...), each with an asset config including collateral/liquidation factors (80%/85%/90%, consistent with typical Gauntlet-style risk parameter recommendations referenced in the proposal) and a supply cap, followed by a deployAndUpgradeTo call referencing the same Comet proxy and Configurator to finalize the upgrade. No numeric values in the description are specific enough to conflict with the calldata (the description defers exact parameters to the linked Gauntlet forum post and PR, which is reasonable summarization). The target addresses are consistent across all three actions (same cometProxy and configurator), so there is no target mismatch. No additional or missing actions were found. Overall the prose accurately and completely reflects the on-chain actions, with only routine technical details omitted, which is expected summarization for this type of Compound governance proposal.

- [Gauntlet] - USDC & USDT Risk Recommendations for Mainnet WETH & WBTC Comets ↗discourse · high confidence
Arguments for
- Adding USDC and USDT as collateral on Mainnet WETH and WBTC comets will expand borrowing options and improve market efficiency without excessive risk, as supported by Gauntlet's risk analysis showing slippage well below liquidation penalties.— Gauntlet, dmitriywoofsoftware
Arguments against
None surfaced.
Unresolved concerns
- Discrepancy between Gauntlet's recommended collateral factors and liquidation penalties for WETH (83% CF, 7% LP) versus WBTC (80% CF, 10% LP) and how these align with existing parameters on USDC and USDT comets.— Gauntlet
- Whether the supply caps of 20M for WETH and 10M for WBTC are appropriately calibrated for actual market demand and liquidity conditions.— Gauntlet
