LBTC supply on Aave V3 (Ethereum). Read-only on Sharpe — deposits, withdrawals, and borrows execute on app.aave.com. We surface parameters, rates, and risk so you can compare this reserve against Morpho vaults on the same asset cohort.
Plain-English summary of this vault — what it does, who runs it, where the yield comes from, and what could break it. Generated from the same deterministic inputs shown elsewhere on this page; the numbers are the source, this is just the explanation.
You deposit LBTC (Lombard's Bitcoin wrapper on Ethereum) and it sits in the reserve earning 0% APY—there are currently no borrowers, so no interest accrues. Your deposit is redeemable at full liquidity since all $192.67M supplied is available. LBTC is enabled as collateral, meaning borrowers can use it to secure loans, with a 70% loan-to-value ratio and 8.5% liquidation bonus if the price drops. Supply rate tracks borrow demand; today that's zero.
Active, no pause or freeze flags. The 90% supply cap consumption signals governance is monitoring inflows closely but has not restricted deposits.
0% today because utilization is 0%—no one is borrowing against LBTC yet. Once borrowers arrive, APY will be borrow rate × utilization × 50% (the reserve factor keeps the other 50% for Aave). At 0% utilization, there is no rate stability risk from redemption pressure, but no yield either.
Deterministic risk score is 16/100, the lowest tier. No elevated risks are flagged. The main exposure is Lombard's ability to maintain LBTC's peg and redemption mechanics; the reserve itself carries no oracle or liquidity circuit breaker concerns.
Good fit for Bitcoin holders seeking Ethereum collateral optionality with zero current yield cost; avoid if you need immediate returns.
On Aave V3, a supplier can withdraw up to the reserve's available liquidity instantly. Above that, the withdrawal must wait for borrowers to repay or new suppliers to deposit. Markets at 95%+ utilization can keep large redemptions waiting for hours to days at current rates.
Reserve parameters are set by Aave governance (BGD Labs + Aave Chan Initiative + Risk Council). Listings, caps, IRM curves, and LLTVs change through on-chain votes.
On Aave V3, supply APY = borrow APY × utilization × (1 − reserve factor). There is no curator skim; the only intermediation cost is the reserve factor, which funds the Aave treasury. No emissions slice in v1 of this integration — the headline is fully sustainable.
Aave V3 reserves carry parameter risk (LTV/LLTV adequacy vs collateral volatility), liquidity risk (high utilization slows exit), and depeg risk on the underlying. Governance can pause / freeze / adjust caps in response to incidents. Sharpe's full risk decomposition for Aave reserves rolls in v1.1.
How the composite risk score breaks down. Every number traces to an explicit input — /methodology documents each factor's formula.
Per-collateral decomposition: Sharpe-style realized σ from 30 daily log returns, blended 50/50 with the asset-taxonomy tier fallback. Phase 2 will replace the tier slot with liquidity depth, mechanism classification, and holder concentration. Methodology in /methodology.

Aave V3 prices and liquidations route through Chainlink's aggregator feed for this asset. A stale, manipulated, or wrong-side update is the protocol's largest single-point-of-failure for this reserve. Chainlink has a strong track record but the failure mode is binary.
Aave V3 has been live since March 2022 with significant TVL and continuous third-party audits. Historical incidents have been contained but the protocol surface is large (Pool / aTokens / debtTokens / IRM / Oracle / UiHelpers). Treat as bounded but non-zero tail risk.
