Cap Recommendations on Ethereum USDC,USDT,USDS and wstETH comets
01Summary
Gauntlet recommends reducing supply caps for six low-utilization assets across three Ethereum Comets: rsETH cap cut from 1,500 to 750 in USDC Comet, and reductions across USDS and USDT Comets affecting SKY, tBTC, weETH, USDe, and mETH tokens.
- Type
- parameter change
Key changes
- rsETH supply cap reduced from 1,500 to 750 in Ethereum USDC Comet(medium)
- SKY supply cap reduced from 96M to 48M in Ethereum USDS Comet(medium)
- tBTC supply cap reduced from 285 to 142 in Ethereum USDS Comet(medium)
- weETH supply cap reduced from 12,000 to 6,000 in Ethereum USDS Comet(medium)
- USDe supply cap reduced from 50M to 25M in Ethereum USDS Comet(medium)
- mETH supply cap reduced from 4,000 to 2,000 in Ethereum USDT Comet(medium)
Notable concerns
- All supply cap reductions are 50% decreases applied to low-utilization assets
