[SIP2.6] Onboard Maple Syrup USDC to the USDC Mainnet - Lower Risk Vault

[samehueasyou]

Summary

This SIP proposes integrating ** @Maple_Finance Syrup USDC** vault into the USDC Mainnet (Lower Risk) vault in Lazy Summer Protocol

• Extensive discussion and technical diligence have confirmed that Syrup USDC’s withdrawal and liquidity mechanics meet Lazy Summer’s capital-protection standards (see forum thread → [RFC] Onboard Maple’s SyrupUSDC as a new ARK within the Mainnet USDC vault on Lazy Summer Protocol - #3 by BlockAnalitica).

• Adding Syrup USDC will diversify yield sources, create awareness among Maple’s institutional lender base, and increase protocol vault TVL as we go beyond standard defi lending protocols.

Motivation

1. Expand yield sources – gains exposure to Maple’s real-world-credit cash-flows, complementing pure DeFi lending ARKs.

2. Attract new user types – Maple lenders and institutional focus helps to create awareness among a key user group.

3. Increase TVL – broadening ark exposure of lower-risk ARKs helps push the protocol toward its next TVL milestone.

4. Strengthen partnerships – deepens collaboration with @Maple_Finance , opening the door for future Maple-based strategies.

Echoing the USDT vault comment here — this is a solid, well-scoped addition.

[SIP2.5] Onboard Maple Syrup USDT to the USDT Mainnet (Lower Risk) Vault

Looks great — aligning the USDT vault with Syrup’s RWA credit exposure is a smart parallel to the USDC integration. I’d just suggest that once @BlockAnalitica confirms the risk profile, we queue both Syrup USDC and USDT ARKs for simultaneous deployment to streamline ops. Would also be good to clarify whether these positions will have any cooldown or notice period on withdrawals — even if comparable to USDC, surfacing that detail will help keep expectations aligned. Onwards after the sun🌞 —jens…

Having both Syrup USDC and USDT onboarded gives us a more complete RWA strategy footprint. Would also recommend that any update to $SUMR rewards consider alignment with [RFC] Extend and Adjust Vault Rewards Emissions - #2 by chrisb, to avoid incentive imbalance.

Great to see continued traction with Maple.
