   "title": "Missing WBTC deposit in Aave V4 Core Hub - not showing on dashboard",
   "content_text": "Hello Aave Support Team, I am experiencing a critical issue with a recent WBTC deposit on the Aave V4 protocol (Ethereum Mainnet). I deposited 0.00492725 WBTC into the Aave Core Hub, the transaction was successful on-chain, but the funds are not displaying correctly on the pro.aave.com dashboard, and my Health Factor did not increase as expected. Transaction Details: • Wallet Address: `0x8dF87ED1d73eDB9998A81678096Ab0F9A34aB435` • Transaction Hash: `0x946321d3d024e1789f7ddc7d280ddc0d25ea90eefb4b5755808e575f3f25a02a` • Amount: `0.00492725 WBTC` • Contract Interacted With: `0x94e7A5dCbE816e498b89aB752661904E2F56c485` (Aave: Main Spoke) • Event Emitted: `Supply` (Log 218) with `reserveId: 3` The Issue: 1. Before the deposit, I had an active borrow position of ~$1,201 USDC against ~0.03 WBTC. 2. When simulating the deposit of the additional 0.00492725 WBTC, the UI showed my Health Factor would increase to ~1.40. 3. After the transaction was confirmed, my Health Factor remained stuck at ~1.29. 4. The deposited amount of 0.00492725 WBTC is nowhere to be found as a separate balance on the Dashboard, nor did it visibly update the main collateral balance in a way that reflects the expected Health Factor increase. 5. However, when I click “Withdraw”, the max available amount shows `0.03158279 WBTC`, which indicates the funds are in the protocol, but the UI and Health Factor calculation seem bugged or are routing the funds to a different `reserveId` that isn’t properly backing my USDC borrow. Could you please investigate why this deposit is not reflecting correctly on the UI and why it didn’t improve my Health Factor? I need to know how to safely withdraw this specific amount or properly apply it to my main position. Thank you. 1 post - 1 participant Read full topic",

   "title": "[Discussion] ZK compliance layer for EU users — alternative to permissioned pools",
   "content_text": "MiCA is enforced. Aave needs a compliance path for EU users that doesn’t fragment liquidity into separate permissioned pools like Arc did. I’ve built a working ZK compliance attestation protocol (Piyora). Users do KYC once with any provider, then generate a zero-knowledge proof in-browser (3-5s) that says “I’m compliant” — valid KYC, allowed jurisdiction, not sanctioned, not expired — without revealing identity. Verified on-chain, 25K gas per tx on L2. What this means practically for Aave: No separate pool needed. Compliance check sits as a modifier on EU-facing functions in the main pool. No KYC data custody. Aave never touches PII. Liability stays with the KYC provider. 25K gas overhead per tx ($0.002 on Base). One-time attestation submission: 280K gas ($0.02). Users re-prove every 7-30 days (checks latest sanctions list automatically). The circuit is built in Noir (~30K constraints, UltraPlonk, no trusted setup). Solidity verifier auto-generated. I have a working prototype — contracts tested (13 passing), proof generates and verifies locally. I’m not proposing a governance vote here — just checking: Is EU compliance being actively discussed? I see nothing in recent proposals. Would a ZK approach be considered, or is the preference for traditional KYC gating? What specific checks would governance want? (KYC level, jurisdiction whitelist, sanctions, accredited investor status?)

   "title": "Evidence-layer confidence for the proposed Aave risk framework: what is observed, explained, historically traced, authorization-proven, partial, or Unknown?",
   "content_text": "Continuing the discussion from [ARFC] Aave Risk Framework : This framework raises an important evidence-layer question. Risk categories such as asset risk, bridging risk, monitoring / automated risk oracle systems, and chain risk are necessary. But they still depend on a lower representational layer: what is observed, what is explained, what is historically traced, what is authorization-proven, and what remains Unknown? In my recent public FET research note, I argue that DeFi transparency is not explanation. Current configuration, historical configuration action, oracle/source provenance, and governance authorization should not be collapsed into one evidence layer. For risk frameworks, this matters because a recommendation can be correct while the evidence beneath its state inputs remains uneven. The question I would ask here is: Will the framework explicitly label evidence confidence for each recommendation, parameter path, oracle path, or deprecation decision? Public note: Zenodo DeFi Transparency Is Not Explanation: State, Provenance, and Evidence-Classed... This public research note presents selected findings from Flow Extraction Theory (FET), an independent research program studying evidence-classed representation of economic state in DeFi lending markets.
