Respect Morpho’s calmness and maniacal focus on growth This is also our mindset internally Just focus on winning. Everything else is noise
Quietly, Morpho's DeFi market share keeps hitting new ATH this year... We don't make much noise here. You ll never see us do drama or pick fights. We don't win on Twitter. We win onchain :).

SKY currently profits close to $200M per year, almost twice the second (aave) GHO and SKY both benefit from a simple fact: they have no lenders to pay Sky also has an estimated 10-15% dead money (eg. lost keys, forgotten OG btc/eth) serve as a natural buffer for solvency
GHO is still tiny next to Aave's lending book, yet it's already the protocol's second-largest revenue line. Over the last 12 months, $GHO generated about $12.0M in revenue, versus $98.3M from V3. For scale, there are only $247M GHO in circulation, while @Aave has $13.19B in active loans. Less than 2% of the size, but already generating roughly 12% as much revenue as V3. The reason is how much more of the economics Aave gets to keep. (1/4)

Take the available rate with a market order, or set a limit at, say, 8%. While you wait, your deposit earns floating yield. If filled, the matched position fixes your return for the remaining term. If not, you keep earning floating.

Very common mistake in domain trading. Companies that own the trademark can always get domains, handles etc for free in US and Europe. It wasn’t the case in early 2000s china The only trade that works now is general domains with 2+ rich bidders
Fun fact, the og owners of Uniswap.com wanted 7 figures, but we refused to pay that amount So SBF bought it (for 7 figures) and pointed it to a fork - I guess to flex / mess with us This malicious use of the domain was enough for our legal team to get it for free

only 3 ways for an MM to get liquidity out of an illiquid tokenized assets eg. tokenized equities: > swap out (need good liquidity) > borrow out (only viable option) > redeem out (delay / high fee) remember PYUSD paid Spark 2m in Q1 for good liquidity? equity is worse
Talked with some MMs for tokenized equities and equity perps Apparently borrowing one tokenized equity against another has huge unmet demand (eg. use ondo NVDA to borrow xstocks NVDA) So far the markets I've seen are all equity borrow stables Who's building this?
