Summary

Both Aave & Compound have recently launched v3s on Ethereum Mainnet. Kaiko published a very interesting chart highlighting withdrawal volumes from v2 as a possible indicator of product cannibalization: So far, token withdrawals have not shown unusually high volumes.

RAI, Reflexer Labs’ ETH-backed stablecoin, received a fair amount of attention as co-founder Ameen publicly criticized the ETH-only model. He argues that ETH staking yields introduce an opportunity cost which reduces the amount of ETH flowing into RAI. RAI was built on the ethos of decentralized collateral & governance with a certain “ETH-purity”. Ameen’s tweet triggered a a public debate about what other collateral types RAI should accept (eg staked ETH) from the community and other protocol members.
