- Positions nearest liquidation would be tapped first.
- The debt on those positions would be reduced.
- Eligibility for healthy loans is not specified.
- The lender's route to ETH is not specified.
What is confirmed

What is still unclear
The report leaves several important questions open. It does not say whether healthy loans would be eligible for this treatment. It also does not describe how the lender would obtain ETH. No timeline, vote, or approval step is given in the supplied material.
