Risk šŸ”Ž

In case you havenā€™t seen it, check out the Aave Risk Dashboard by Gauntlet atĀ gov.gauntlet.network/aave. The Gauntlet team is particularly keen on iterating on this dashboard for the community and would love feedback via thisĀ Google Form.

Risk Parameter Updates:

This week, AIP-44 passed and was executed. The AIP temporarily disables borrow for xSUSHI and DeFi Pulse Index (DPI), and freezes deposits, borrows, and rate swaps for UNI/BAL AMM Markets. Gauntletā€™s analysis shows that any attempt to manipulate xSUSHI on the Aave Protocol would result in losses for the attackers under the current market conditions, but this AIP was proposed as a precautionary measure to mitigate the potential of any future risks.

In addition, this weekā€™s set of parameter updates includes changes to liquidation threshold, loan to value, and liquidation bonus for the five assets below. The ARC for this set of parameter updates can be foundĀ here. For more detail on Gauntletā€™s first two months of recommendations and their impact, please see Gauntletā€™sĀ Q2 Dynamic Risk ParametersĀ andĀ Monthly Risk Report.
