Gate News message, April 27 — Curve team unveiled a governance proposal on April 27 to address approximately $700,000 in bad debt from the CRV-long LlamaLend market, which occurred on October 10, 2025. The proposed recovery mechanism leverages the optionality of CRV-long vault assets: vault value increases when CRV price rises but does not suffer additional losses when price falls.
The proposal calls for establishing a Curve stableswap with a low amplification coefficient (A=2) and high swap fee (1%) to concentrate vault token liquidity around a 71% solvency level. Arbitrageurs can use flash loans to purchase vault tokens and execute partial liquidations for profit. Curve DAO is invited to approve incentive measures for the pool, with collected management fees retained in vault token form within the treasury.
If the mechanism succeeds, it will serve as a reference solution for similar situations. The proposal represents a market-driven approach to addressing protocol bad debt through mechanism design rather than direct treasury intervention.
