## Proposal

Following the discussion post on Interlay [(https://interlay.subsquare.io/post/14)](https://interlay.subsquare.io/post/14), and the numerous requests by Vault operators, I propose the activation of USDT as a vault collateral on Kintsugi.

The configuration proposed (taking account analysis by the Interlay team) for USDT is as follows:

* Initial collateral ceiling: 100.000,00 USD equivalent
* Secure collateral threshold: 165%
* Premium redeem threshold: 155%
* Liquidation threshold: 140%
* Minimum collateral threshold: 150 USDT
