Moonwell’s MIP-X75 Reduces Collateral Factors on Base and Optimism

Moonwell’s MIP-X75 risk adjustment had taken effect as of a November 12, 2026 report by TechFlow, citing The Defiant. It reduced collateral factors for several assets on Base and Optimism and removed VELO and wrsETH as eligible collateral on Optimism.

Network Asset Previous collateral factor New collateral factor
Base AERO 58% 55%
Base WELL 35% 20%
Base MORPHO 40% 30%
Optimism VELO 50% 0%
Optimism wrsETH 20% 0%
Optimism OP 55% 50%

A lower collateral factor reduces how much an existing loan’s collateral can support. A position could therefore become eligible for liquidation even if the collateral token’s price does not fall. Affected borrowers can repay part of their debt or add other eligible collateral to restore a safety margin.
