TL;DR:

The Aave V3 community is discussing a proposed framework for new asset listings, including a 72-hour feedback period, a 2-week independent analysis, and a 5-day feedback period on recommended parameters, with questions raised about the necessity of the full 2-week review for low cap, isolation mode assets. Additionally, factors for prioritizing asset listings are being considered, with emphasis on DAO revenue and usage, and an analysis of different pools based on usage has highlighted the potential of certain assets like SNX, BAL, and CVX to attract smaller depositors.

The community has been actively discussing the proposed framework for the listing process of new assets to Aave V3 markets. This framework, proposed by ChaosLabs and Gauntlet, includes a 72-hour community discussion and feedback period, a 2-week period for risk managers to conduct independent analyses, and a 5-day community discussion and feedback period on the recommended parameters1. However, questions have been raised about the necessity of the full 2-week review for assets seeking to get listed in isolation mode with a low cap2.

The community has also been considering factors for prioritizing V3 asset listing. John_TV_Locke suggested looking at revenue to the DAO and usage (by number of users) as factors4. He also shared an analysis comparing different pools based on usage rather than earnings, with a focus on pools with the smallest average open deposit position over the last 180 days. The analysis showed that SNX, BAL, and CVX attracted many smaller depositors, likely due to their yield-bearing nature4.

In conclusion, the community is actively engaged in refining the asset listing process for Aave V3 markets. The proposed framework is under discussion, with some members suggesting modifications. Additionally, the community is considering various factors for prioritizing asset listings, with an emphasis on usage and revenue to the DAO. The analysis of different pools based on usage has highlighted the potential of certain assets to attract smaller depositors, suggesting a niche for users seeking price exposure, yield generation, and liquidity.
