Hi @surfingdegen, thanks for suggesting the addition of a new collateral asset to Moonwell.

After reviewing the asset, unlike $VVV and $VIRTUAL, [$BNKR](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bankercoin-2?chart=type%3Dprice%26mode%3Dline%26timeframe%3Dd30) ([bankr.bot](https://bankr.bot/)) currently **does not meet the minimum requirements** needed to be listed as collateral. One of the main concerns is the **absence of a Chainlink price feed** , which is a key requirement for reducing oracle-related risk and ensuring reliable pricing for the protocol.

Another important factor is the token’s **[limited on-chain liquidity](https://aerodrome.finance/liquidity?query=bnkr)**, which is still relatively low for collateral onboarding. While supply and borrow caps could help reduce exposure, I believe the overall risk is still significant compared to the potential benefit for the protocol at this stage.

In my opinion, the platform itself is interesting, and the ability for users to create their own AI agents is a strong concept. However, before $BNKR can reasonably be considered as collateral, the token should continue maturing and meet the **minimum standards established by the community through the [MALF framework](https://forum.moonwell.fi/t/moonwell-asset-listing-framework-v2/724)**.

Once those requirements are met, the process can move forward with a full risk analysis by Anthias Labs. If the asset aligns with the necessary criteria, a Snapshot proposal could then be submitted and, if approved by the community, proceed to an on-chain governance vote to determine whether BNKR should be supported on Moonwell.
