# Gauntlet recommendation to reactivate CRV borrowing on v3
AI summary
This proposal from Gauntlet recommends re-enabling the borrowing of CRV (Curve DAO Token) on Aave v3 on both Ethereum and Polygon networks. CRV borrowing was previously disabled due to a security exploit. The proposal also suggests adjusting several parameters for CRV, including reducing the supply cap, borrow cap, and debt ceiling to manage risk.
