PT-USDe-7MAY2026 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.
Depositing PT-USDe-7MAY2026 means you lend it to borrowers on Aave and earn interest—but currently earn 0.00% APY because no one is borrowing it. You can redeem your deposit anytime the reserve has available liquidity (currently all $475.82 is available). This is a borrow-only reserve, so it cannot be used as collateral to secure loans. PT-USDe-7MAY2026 is a Pendle yield token maturing 7 May 2026; it is not issued by a traditional stablecoin operator.
Aave governance has marked this reserve borrow-only and supplied a 45% reserve factor, signaling caution around this experimental asset class and its liquidity profile.
Supply APY is determined by borrower demand multiplied by utilization and the reserve factor share (currently: 0% borrow APY × 0% utilization × 55% = 0%). Zero utilization means no one is borrowing; rate will remain flat until borrow demand arrives.
Supply cap is 100% consumed at just $475.82 total—new deposits will revert once the cap fills. This is the material constraint; additional capital cannot enter. Pendle yield tokens carry counterparty risk tied to underlying protocol yields and rollover mechanics at maturity (May 2026).
Avoid unless you are already holding PT-USDe-7MAY2026 and want to test its Aave integration; no yield and capped inflows make it unsuitable as a cash deployment.
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.
This reserve isn't usable as collateral, so LTV / Liquidation LLTV / liquidation bonus don't apply. Borrowers can take it against other collateral; suppliers earn the variable rate driven by borrow demand.
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.

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.
The honest version. Every structural failure mode this vault is exposed to, ranked by severity. If you want to know whether to invest, start here.
Supply cap is 100% filled. New deposits revert once the cap binds; cap raises require an on-chain governance vote.
