Circle Chief Economist Gordon Liao submitted a governance discussion proposal for Aave, suggesting adjustments to the USDC interest rate parameters of the Aave v3 Ethereum core market to address the high utilization and liquidity strain that persisted for several days following the KelpDAO rsETH event.

The proposal suggests raising the "Slope 2" to 40% initially, with a target of 50%, while lowering the optimal utilization rate to attract more USDC deposits. Some members of the Aave community believe that higher borrowing costs may exacerbate the liquidation risk for borrowers. Data shows that Aave's current total locked value is approximately $15.3 billion.
