Risk Stewards: Supply Cap Increases on Aave V3 / 2026.07.11

Summary LlamaRisk recommends the following parameter changes based on user behavior, on-chain liquidity, and position health observed in the latest review of Aave V3 reserves. Aave V3 MegaETH: Increase supply cap for stcUSD from 40,000,000 to 60,000,000. stcUSD (Aave V3 MegaETH) stcUSD has reached 100.0% supply cap utilization (39,999,614 / 40,000,000) on the Aave V3 MegaETH instance. Supply Distribution Source: LlamaRisk, July 10, 2026 Across the top stcUSD suppliers, health factors range from 1.01 to 2.12 with a median of 1.06, and the positions carry outstanding debt against their collateral, important to note that the supply is basically concentrated across 3 addresses, representing moderate concentration risk. The debt across the positions is USDm borrowed against stcUSD in the Stablecoins E-Mode (LT 90%), so health factor stability depends on the stcUSD to USDm price relationship. Recommendation We recommend raising the supply cap for stcUSD from 40,000,000 to 60,000,000 on Aave V3 MegaETH. Utilization stands at 100% (39,999,614 / 40,000,000), and the increase brings post-change utilization to approximately 67% with headroom for further supply growth.
