Add AVAIL market to Moonwell on Base

Overview

This proposal seeks to list the AVAIL token as a new market on Moonwell’s Base deployment. AVAIL is the utility token of the Avail Network, a modular data availability layer founded by former Polygon co-founder Anurag Arjun and ex-research lead at Polygon Prabal Banerjee.

General Information

Token Asset Name: AVAIL (ERC-20 on Base bridged via Wormhole from Ethereum)

Project Description: Avail is a modular data availability layer that launched its mainnet in July 2024. The project has garnered significant traction with over 60 chains developing integrations, 110 partners including prominent projects like Lens Protocol, Sophon and Symbiotic etc.

Benefits to Moonwell Community:

1. Expands Moonwell’s asset offerings to include a fundamental infrastructure token in the modular blockchain space. 2 Provides yield opportunities for AVAIL holders on Base
2. Increases TVL potential through integration with a rapidly growing ecosystem
3. Attracts users from Avail’s existing ecosystem to Moonwell Resources:

Proposed Initial Parameters We propose the following initial conservative parameters, subject to Gauntlet’s risk assessment:

Collateral Factor: 0% (initially, as per framework recommendations) Reserve Factor: 25% (standard for non-stablecoin assets) Supply Cap: TBD based on Gauntlet’s assessment Borrow Cap: TBD based on Gauntlet’s assessment

Conclusion:

Listing AVAIL on Moonwell’s Base deployment offers a strategic opportunity to integrate a foundational infrastructure asset powering modular blockchain adoption. Adding AVAIL taps into growing demand for modular blockchain, and creating new yield opportunities on MoonWell’s base lending hub for users.

I am opening this proposal to the community to review, discuss, and provide feedback on this proposal to ensure its success and alignment with our shared vision for a secure and decentralized onchain financial future.
