Methodology and limitations

Showing collateral exposure for USDT 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.

  • These metrics describe lending exposure only and are not a full protocol risk rating.
  • This view does not include multisigs, timelocks, audits, oracle incidents, listing discussions, curator reports, or protocol backstops.
  • Chain-specific drilldown is exact only when the token resolves to a concrete chain:address.
  • Bad debt at $0 is a lower bound when some contributing markets return null for zero-price bad debt; null rows are excluded instead of being treated as zero.
Show exposure details

Each row is one protocol-chain exposure for USDT as collateral. Bad debt at $0 totals remain lower bounds when a row is marked partial.

Enable USDT Bridging to Arbitrum for Spark Liquidity Layer

To support the launch of spUSDT on Arbitrum, the protocol is enabling a rate-limited bridge to move its own USDT from Ethereum. This creates a liquidity buffer on Arbitrum to ensure instant withdrawals for spUSDT holders.

contributor@0x8541cCfc6E7EAcEbD233C6789a0FbF7C708B0E68snapshot.box/s:sparkfi.eth

Deploy Spark Savings USDT (spUSDT) on Arbitrum

Spark is deploying its USDT savings vault (spUSDT) on Arbitrum to meet user demand and diversify its depositor base. Risk is considered low as most deposited USDT will be bridged back to Ethereum, leaving only a small liquidity buffer on Arbitrum.

Optimism USDC and USDT IRM Updates

The current interest rate model causes the protocol to lose money (deplete reserves) at typical utilization levels. This proposal raises the base borrow rate to ensure the protocol earns a positive spread, improving its financial health and reducing reliance on liquidation revenue.

contributor@AaveLabsgovernance.aave.com

Deploy Aave V4 on Avalanche

Proposed for inclusion in the new Aave V4 deployment on Avalanche, which is seen as a low-risk expansion due to the network's proven track record and existing Aave V3 user base.

Spark Liquidity Layer to Integrate with Binance for Stablecoin Swaps

Spark is integrating with Binance to facilitate large-scale swaps between USDC and USDT, leveraging Binance's deep liquidity. This introduces Binance as a new counterparty, with exposure limited by a $5M per-transaction cap and automated controls.

Compound DAO seeks managers for its treasury assets

The Compound DAO is seeking professional managers to deploy its treasury reserves, including this asset, into active yield strategies. This initiative aims to move idle capital into more productive, risk-managed investments to generate higher returns for the DAO.

Risk Month in Review: May 2026

The Reserve Factor was increased, meaning the protocol will retain a larger share of interest paid by borrowers. This action reduces the yield for lenders of this asset.

contributor@0x8541cCfc6E7EAcEbD233C6789a0FbF7C708B0E68snapshot.box/s:sparkfi.eth

Update Rate Limits for Spark Liquidity Layer

Swap rate limits on Uniswap v4 are being increased. This provides more venue options for trading with USDS, aiming for better price execution for the protocol.

contributor@0xF97c00fab22A45eB27163D0f0065Da00Da10624Bsnapshot.box/s:sparkfi.eth

Spark Liquidity Layer: Update Blue Chip USDT Morpho Vault

The current USDT Morpho vault is being replaced with an equivalent version to enable listing on the Morpho frontend, re-enabling deposits previously capped at zero. This allows initial deposits up to 100 million USDT, scaling by 1 billion per day, to boost liquidity provision without altering core vault configurations like pools, supply caps, or timelocks.

Spark Liquidity Layer offboards Aave Core USDT

A recent risk event in Aave Core has prompted Spark to cease future allocations to Aave Core USDT, offboarding the integration by setting deposit and withdrawal limits to zero as a mitigation measure.
