title: “Onboard Native USDC to Aave V3 Optimism” author: “@marczeller - Aave Chan Initiative” discussions: “https://governance.aave.com/t/arfc-onboard-native-usdc-to-aave-v3-optimism-market/15463”

Simple Summary

This ARFC proposes integrating native USDC into the Aave V3 pool on Optimism, positioning it as the primary stablecoin version over the bridged USDC.e.

Motivation

With the evolution of L2 networks, adopting native USDC versions becomes vital for efficiency. This proposal seeks a balanced transition from USDC.e to native USDC on Optimism, drawing from similar successful integrations on other networks.
