Forum post: [Anthias Labs] Reserve Recommendations
Author: Anthias
Summary: Anthias also outlined targeted actions to address Moonwell’s outstanding bad debt on Base while continuing remediation efforts for users affected by the cbETH incident. They proposed two key initiatives: (1) using protocol reserves to repay $550K of bad debt from addresses with zero collateral, and (2) withdrawing 1.45 cbBTC from the reserves and swapping it to WETH in preparation for distribution to users affected by the cbETH incident. This swap, along with the ~10 ETH already recovered from law enforcement, will be distributed in a future round once the final WETH amount is confirmed after the swap.
