But as liquidity matured over time, the maximum possible caps were often larger than the on-chain demand (e.g., USDT0, at one point our largest stablecoin market, had a 95M supply cap, with only 10-15M actually supplied). While not inherently problematic, this creates unnecessary risk exposure in long-tail risk scenarios (as seen in cases like rsETH). To address this, we adopted the on-chain **Cap Automator** contract (originally developed by [SparkLend](https://x.com/BlockAnalitica/status/1765395680833740892)), deployed at [0x01f550365b99aE5B76533241c5BA8255441BA312](https://hyperevmscan.io/address/0x01f550365b99aE5B76533241c5BA8255441BA312). Caps now expand based on demand, within predefined limits and rate controls: * Under normal conditions, caps adjust automatically in line with usage (with limits and timers visible in the UI). * During stressed conditions, automation can be paused to limit exposure
