Aave V3 risk stewards raise EURC supply cap to 92M and USDm cap to 1B on MegaETH

Aave Governance Forum · May 5, 2026 6:35 PM EDT

Aave V3 Risk Stewards, acting on LlamaRisk recommendations, have approved doubling the EURC supply cap from 46 million to 92 million on the Ethereum Core instance after utilization hit 97.9%, and raising the USDm cap from 600 million to 1 billion on MegaETH. The EURC cap had been near its ceiling for several consecutive days, reflecting sustained institutional demand for regulated euro-denominated stablecoin yield on Ethereum.

For Armada's crypto-repo desk, near-full utilization of EURC on Aave signals strong counterparty demand for euro stablecoin exposure, which is relevant if Armada prices euro-denominated crypto repo or accepts EURC as collateral. The USDm expansion on MegaETH indicates growing dollar stablecoin liquidity on alt-L2 infrastructure. Both developments should be tracked as indicators of stablecoin collateral depth and borrow cost benchmarks.

Suggested action Monitor EURC and USDm borrow utilization post-cap increase to assess depth of stablecoin liquidity available for repo collateral or settlement.
