Simple Summary

The proposal aims to onboard Renzo Protocol's ezETH and increase wstETH borrow caps on Aave v3 Lido Instance.

Motivation

Liquid Restaking tokens (LRTs) have proven to be popular collateral assets on Aave. ezETH is an LRT reward-bearing token, exchange-rate based, where users can deposit native ETH and LSTs (currently stETH) in exchange for ezETH.

Given LRTs high correlation to ETH, they are commonly used as collateral to borrow ETH and engage in yield leveraged staking, with several communities having built products that automate such strategies on top of Aave. The inclusion of ezETH in E-Mode enables these strategies to maximize the yield potential of the recursive strategy. The onboarding of ezETH will consequently create increased ezETH demand and increased revenues for both Aave and Renzo Protocol, whilst also bolstering the liquidity and peg stability of ezETH.

With the listing of ezETH and the introduction of an LRT wstETH E-Mode, Chaos Labs anticipates that ezETH’s primary use case will be as collateral for borrowing wstETH to leverage ezETH’s yield. And with the borrow cap currently reached for wstETH, we aim to increase its borrow cap.

The risk parameters have been provided by Chaos Labs, and positive technical evaluation of ezETH is done by BGD Labs, all of which including LlamaRisk's qualitative assessment, can be found on the forum.

Please Note: Low LTV, LT values have been configured to only allow for collateral use of ezETH on E-Modes. Additionally low borrow cap has been configured as a matter of extra safety as borrow cap of 0 represents no cap at all.

The borrow for wstETH on Lido Instance has been increased, more info on the forum.

With liquid eModes live on all instances, we now configure two new E-Mode categories: LRT Stablecoins main, LRT wstETH main and add the respective assets to these categories.

The price capo adapter has been verified by Certora (more info on forum), validating that the price cap adapter is robust against donation-based price manipulation and poses no risk to the protocol.

wstETH on the Lido Instance has been disabled from being borrowable in the ETH Correlated E-Mode (categoryId: 1). Users current positions will remain intact, but borrow exposure of wstETH in ETH Correlated E-Mode cannot be increased.

Additionally 0xac140648435d03f784879cd789130F22Ef588Fcd (ACI multi-sig) has been set as the emission admin for ezETH and the corresponding aToken.
