Simple Summary

This SCCP proposes to lower the base borrowing rate to 0.25% from 3%.

Abstract

The baseBorrowRate determines the annual interest rate applied on sUSD/sETH borrowing against ETH.

Motivation

This SCCP aims at improving the sUSD/sETH liquidity on optimism, given the acute shortage of LUSD on the ethereum network and the sETH/ETH wrappr being near max capacity with little headroom to raise it further due to the composition of the debt pool on optimism.
