**Change: Change crvUSD IRM parameters**

Target market:  
CRV-crvUSD:

- Slow APR growth when utilization is outside the optimal region to give borrowers ample time to adjust positions without paying excessive rates. The change will help retain borrowers.

Summary:

- at 80% (optimal): 14% floor
- at 90% (critical): 15.75% floor, grows to 18.75% in 24h
- at 100%: 50% floor, grows to 88.5% in 24h
- below optimal, APR drops aggressively (-200pp APR when U = 79%)
