Showing collateral exposure for WSTETH on onchain. Max Borrowable uses the backend's liquidity-bounded borrow-capacity metric (`collateralMaxBorrowUsdLiquidity`) for the maximum additional USD debt that can be issued against the asset right now. Bad Debt at $0 is the minimum known bad debt if the collateral asset price goes to zero; null rows are excluded from this total rather than treated as zero, so totals may remain lower bounds.
Each row is one protocol-chain exposure for WSTETH as collateral. Bad debt at $0 totals remain lower bounds when a row is marked partial.

Lending-market-model-derived CRR applied to wstETH in Grove × Steakhouse RLUSD Morpho Vault V2 for lending against RLUSD. Onboarding facilitates its use in the new vault with calibrated risk capital to cover potential shortfalls.
wstETH markets are using wstETH/ETH ratio combined with SVR ETH/USD, backed by Chainlink fallbacks, to ensure accurate pricing and reduce exposure to oracle staleness or manipulation.
The Ethereum wstETH comet sees a temporary liquidation pause because of intertwined rsETH collateral risks post-exploit, where ongoing uncertainty about backing and Kelp's loss allocation could cause abrupt price steps leading to simultaneous borrower liquidations. The pause allows time for oracle upgrades to ensure prices reflect the asset's true state before resuming.
The Kelp exploit has spiked volatility in ETH markets, pressuring LST/LRT looping strategies with high negative carry. Lowering kink and max borrow rates for wstETH on Ethereum aims to keep costs low and enable gradual position unwinding without triggering mass liquidations.
Isolated wstETH markets on Monad and Euler Linea wstETH market are being handed over to curators K3 or AlphaGrowth for continued management, as the DAO sunsets direct operations to minimize conflicts of interest and refocus on infrastructure.
The wstETH/USDT pool at 86% LLTV is being added with a 250 million absolute cap, leveraging its high onchain liquidity and existing acceptance as collateral in SparkLend to enable efficient USDT reserve allocation.
The CAPO oracle misconfiguration caused a 2.85% downward deviation in the wstETH/stETH exchange rate, triggering E-Mode liquidations with no bad debt incurred. With the oracle now realigned to its true value, restoring borrow caps returns wstETH to normal borrowing capacity without ongoing risk.
The wstETH/USDS market allows wstETH deposits as collateral for USDS borrowing at 86% LLTV, seeded for healthy utilization and enabling ETH-backed leverage within the Flagship Vault's strategy.
Adaptive IRM for wstETH targets 50% utilization with conservative rates from 0.5% min to 5% max, calibrated to maintain stability in lower-utilization LST markets without changing collateral or borrowing exposure.
