Summary
This proposal seeks to remove underutilized markets and readjust borrow caps on existing markets to optimize protocol efficiency. The changes focus on maintaining markets that create strategic synergies with Resupply while removing those with low utilization and limited protocol value.
Motivation
Synergy-Focused Market Strategy
Markets with yield-bearing stables should be added or removed based on the synergies they create with Resupply. This approach ensures that protocol resources are allocated to markets that provide tangible benefits beyond simple lending activity.
Current Market Synergy Analysis
Markets with Strong Synergies:
scrvUSD:
-
Crv gauges available for liquidity pool incentives
-
Direct lending integration to sreUSD market
-
Strong alignment with Curve ecosystem
sfrxUSD:
-
Algorithmic Market Operations liquidity pooling opportunities
-
Established liquidity partnerships
-
Core stable asset for protocol operations
sDOLA:
-
Leverage liquidity pool options (prospective in near future)
-
Growing DeFi integration potential
fxSAVE (fxUSD):
-
FX gauge available for liquidity pool incentives
-
FX Protocol ecosystem alignment
Markets with Limited or No Synergies:
sUSDS:
-
No identified synergies
-
Low market demand
USDe:
-
No identified synergies
-
Low demand compared to sUSDe alternative
sUSDe:
-
No identified synergies
-
Good demand but lacks strategic value-add
Rationale for Market Adjustments
By focusing on synergy-based markets, Resupply can:
-
Concentrate liquidity where it creates the most protocol value
-
Reduce operational overhead from maintaining underutilized markets
-
Strengthen partnerships with aligned DeFi protocols
-
Improve capital efficiency across the platform
Specification
Reduce Borrow Caps on Low Utilization Markets
The following markets will have their borrow limits reduced or eliminated due to low utilization and lack of strategic synergies:
Set Borrow Limit on tbtc to 0
- Reason: Underutilized market with no strategic synergies
Set Borrow Limit on USDe to 0
- Reason: Low demand, especially compared to sUSDe alternative
Set Borrow Limit on sUSDS to 0
- Reason: Low utilization and no identified synergies
Set Borrow Limit on sDOLA (old) to 0
- Reason: Deprecated version, replaced by current sDOLA market
Increase Borrow Cap on High-Synergy Market
Set Borrow Limit on fxSAVE to 25m (up from 10m)
-
Reason: Strong synergies through FX gauge liquidity pool incentives
-
Current utilization supports increased capacity
-
FX Protocol ecosystem alignment provides strategic value
