Can LST vaults dynamically adjust collateral requirements post‑slashing?
Yes, advanced DeFi vaults that accept LSTs as collateral can and should be designed to dynamically adjust their requirements (like Loan-to-Value ratios) in response to slashing events or heightened volatility. This can be done through governance or, preferably, via decentralized risk oracles. If an oracle detects a major slashing event on a specific AVS or a general spike in network slashing rates, it could signal to vaults to temporarily increase their collateralization requirements for assets exposed to that risk. This acts as a pre-emptive circuit breaker, forcing a deleveraging of the most at-risk positions before a full-blown liquidation cascade begins. However, this must be implemented carefully to avoid becoming a pro-cyclical trigger that itself causes the panic it seeks to prevent.
