KelpDAO Reaches 500,000 ETH Milestone in Liquid Restaking
**KelpDAO's rsETH has reached a significant milestone**, with total value locked (TVL) surpassing 500,000 ETH. The liquid restaking protocol, built on Eigenlayer, now serves over 20,000 rsETH holders. This growth reflects increasing adoption of liquid restaking solutions in the DeFi ecosystem. Users can mint rsETH through [KelpDAO's platform](https://kerneldao.com/kelp/restake/?utm_source=social). **Key metrics:** - 500,000+ ETH restaked - 20,000+ rsETH holders - Built on Eigenlayer infrastructure
rsETH E-Mode Goes Live on Aave v3 with 14x Leverage and 8.94% Rewards
Aave v3's Core market has activated E-Mode for rsETH, enabling significantly more capital-efficient leverage strategies. **Key improvements:** - Leverage increased from ~3x to 14x through E-Mode - Up to 93% loan-to-value ratio for rsETH <> ETH pairs - Current rewards reaching 8.94% on leveraged positions - One-click looping now available via Contango **What E-Mode enables:** E-Mode is designed for correlated assets like rsETH and ETH. The higher LTV ratios mean users can deploy capital more efficiently without increasing risk, as the assets move in tandem. Previously, conservative LTV caps left more capital idle. rsETH holders can now access these strategies on [Aave v3](https://app.aave.com/reserve-overview/?underlyingAsset=0xa1290d69c65a6fe4df752f95823fae25cb99e5a7&marketName=proto_mainnet_v3).
KelpDAO Implements Automated Risk Protection System
KelpDAO has introduced automated liquidation mechanisms and insurance vaults to protect users in their liquid restaking protocol. **Key Features:** - Automated protections activate when risk thresholds are crossed, eliminating delays from manual intervention - Insurance vaults handle edge cases to prevent losses from being passed to users - System addresses scalability issues with optional, user-managed insurance The protocol determined that manual insurance management doesn't scale effectively for actively managed vaults, especially as allocations shift across multiple protocols.
Chainlink Proof-of-Reserve Enables On-Chain Verification of Asset Backing
Chainlink's Proof-of-Reserve (PoR) feeds provide on-chain verification of asset backing, covering both on-chain and off-chain components. **Key Features:** - Verifiable backing through Chainlink PoR feeds - Transparency built directly into the system - Coverage of both on-chain and off-chain reserve components The technology aims to bring end-to-end transparency to reserves across different chains and off-chain holdings.
Continuous LTV Monitoring System Reacts Immediately to Position Risk
A real-time loan-to-value (LTV) monitoring system now tracks positions continuously rather than on daily or weekly intervals. **Key Features:** - Positions monitored in real-time, not periodically - System responds immediately when ratios approach risk limits - Automated reactions prevent delayed risk management This approach represents a shift from traditional periodic risk checks to continuous surveillance, enabling faster responses to market movements and position changes.
