Gate News message, April 20 — Spark’s strategy chief monetsupply.eth stated that the protocol’s decision to maintain elevated borrowing rate caps on the SparkLend ETH market, while causing user migration to Aave and resulting in significant business losses, has been vindicated by current market conditions. Aave now faces liquidity exhaustion across mainnet, Arbitrum, Plasma, Mantle, and Base, with ETH lending utilization reaching 100%, preventing depositors from withdrawing funds and blocking normal liquidation of ETH collateral.
monetsupply.eth warned that if liquidity tightness persists and ETH prices decline 15-20%, Aave could face substantial bad debt risk compounded by potential impacts from the rsETH vulnerability incident. The situation underscores the importance of conservative risk management in lending protocols.
