title: “Gauntlet recommendation to reactivate CRV borrowing on v3” author: “Gauntlet” discussions: “https://governance.aave.com/t/arfc-gauntlet-recommendation-to-re-enable-crv-borrowing-on-v3-ethereum-polygon/15513”

Simple Summary

During the Vyper exploit, CRV borrowing was disabled on Ethereum and Polygon v3 with the hope of mitigating downward CRV price movement in light of excess CRV positions on Aave v2.

Given that a large majority of those CRV positions with excess risk have left the system, Gauntlet recommends reactivating CRV borrowing. In order to do so, we recommend a few other changes to CRV parameterization.

Specification

Chain	Asset	Parameter	Current Value	Recommended Value
Ethereum v3	CRV	supplyCap	51m	7.5m
Ethereum v3	CRV	borrowCap	7.7m	5m
Ethereum v3	CRV	debtCeiling	$5m	$1m
Ethereum v3	CRV	isBorrowable	False	True
Polygon v3	CRV	borrowCap	900k	300k
Polygon v3	CRV	isBorrowable	False	True
