Simple Summary

This SCCP proposes to update the USDT perps v2 parameters as per the below:

  • maxPD updated from 15 bp to 30 bp
  • maxLiqudiationDelta update from 30 bp to 15 bp

Abstract

maxPD (MPD) and maxLiquidationDelta (MLD) are parameters introduced in SIP-2005 and they are set by governance taking into account the below rules:

  • maxPD is set to 2 * (offchain maker fee + offchain taker fee)
  • maxLiquidationDelta is set to offchain maker + offchain taker fees

These parameters did not respect the above rule of thumb in SIP-2030, which might result in more endorsed liquidations then necessary.

Motivation

The main motivation is to align the maxPD and maxLiquidationDelta parameters in terms of setting across all markets.
