"@CurveFinances crvUSD rate volatility isnt a peg problem. Its a rate dynamics problem. Despite heavy flow through yield venues the peg has held strong. The real issue is volatile rates driven by fast PegKeeper debt shifts not price deviation. Weve analyzed the root cause of this volatility and explored whether rates can be smoothed without weakening borrower-driven peg defence. Using onchain data and backtests we examined how borrowers actually respond to different rate regimes and tested a proposal to smooth PegKeeper debt contribution using an EMA. The goal: reduce unnecessary rate swings"

GHO does not meet this dispositive prong as no legal personneither the Aave DAO nor any facilitatorundertakes this redemption obligation. GHO's crypto-collateralized design is fundamentally distinct from the"
