# Onboard Native USDC to Aave V3 Markets
AI summary
This proposal aims to add native USDC to Aave's lending and borrowing markets on Base, OP Mainnet, and Polygon PoS. Currently, these markets primarily use USDC.e, which is an 'bridged' version of USDC. The goal is to streamline operations and reduce governance overhead by combining several smaller proposals into one 'meta-proposal' for a single vote.
If passed, users on these networks will be able to supply and borrow native USDC directly on Aave, potentially improving efficiency and reducing complexity. The proposal also notes that the liquidation threshold for some existing USDC.e markets will decrease, which could affect users holding USDC.e as collateral. No specific dollar amounts are mentioned for treasury allocations or payments.
