📈 Morpho Crosses $1.6B+ in Deposits, 68k+ users

  • Morpho has established itself as a leading decentralized lending protocol across EVM-compatible blockchains. Its ecosystem comprises multiple products, including Morpho Optimizers and the more recently launched “Morpho” (formerly known as Morpho Blue) protocol. As of October 2024, Morpho has achieved $1.62B in total deposits, with a Total Value Locked (TVL) of $1.05B, showcasing its growing presence in the DeFi lending space.

Morpho

  • There's been a significant uptick in user adoption in 2024, with Morpho reaching over 68,000 unique wallets across its protocols. The protocol's launch on Base in June 2024 has been a major driver, contributing over 53,000 new wallets to the ecosystem.

Dune - @vincentmorpho

  • Morpho sustains strong growth in deposits, especially when excluding Algorithmic Market Operations Controller (AMOs), automated systems used by projects like the stablecoin issuer Angle to manage liquidity and stability. This highlights its growth in blue-chip assets — $903M with a +46% growth over just 3 months.

Dune - @morpho🔦Transaction Spotlight:This transaction exemplifies Morpho's migration feature, which enables users to seamlessly migrate their lending positions from Aave and Compound, both lending platforms, to Morpho with just a few clicks. In this case, the migration brought a substantial liquidity of 650 ETH ($1.67M at the time) from Compound into a Morpho Vault, contributing to the overall liquidity growth of Morpho on Base.

📈 Gearbox Triples TVL with Revenue Growing by 600%

  • Gearbox, a lending platform, began the year with the launch of Gearbox V3 and has since seen a 200% growth in TVL. Over the year, Gearbox integrated 30+ assets - expanding credit to liquid restaking tokens (LRTs), Ethena, margin trading on decentralized exchanges, real world assets (RWAs) and BTCfi assets. The protocol further expanded to 2 more networks: Arbitrum and Optimism. The new integrations increased organic demand from borrowers, and revenue increased by 626% to $3M in the first nine months of the year.

Gearbox

  • The increase in demand happened as borrowers grew by 13.38x (1,338%), opening 2,465 unique Credit Accounts over the year. The influx of demand was fulfilled by a significant growth in lenders, which rose by 108% over the year. This was further facilitated by Gearbox adding 5 new lending pools.

Dune - @p_dot

  • Making growth sustainable — Gearbox generated $14M+ in overall fees, with lenders earning $11M+ and the DAO generating ~$3M in revenues. The total $GEAR token incentives were ~$486k or a net spend of 16 cents for every $1 earned by the DAO. The GEAR token also reached 100% circulating supply.

Gearbox (internal)🔦Transaction Spotlight:This transaction utilises Gearbox's latest product, multicollateral loans. Multicollateral loans enable users to borrow against their capital AND still use it to farm, trade, stake use it across DeFi. The user in the transaction deposited 90 ETH and withdrew 100K USDC. Most lending protocols would require the user to repay the 100K USDC in case they want to swap their ETH . But with multicollateral loans, users can swap, stake or LP their ETH even with an active loan, making collateral management flexible.

  • Jensen Huang Collaborates with Wall Street Giants to Support AI Computing Market

    On August 15, a rare scene unfolded as Jensen Huang joined forces with six major Wall Street asset management giants to endorse the idea of establishing AI computing as an independent asset class. Analysts believe this reflects Huang's commitment to the concept of token economics, marking a shift in the AI boom from a technological competition to a capital competition. However, the latest plan has raised concerns among investors regarding 'circular financing' and debt risks. In response to these doubts, Huang personally stepped in to reassure the market, stating that Nvidia may provide a residual value support mechanism of up to 25% for individual investment projects and will carefully evaluate each project. Following this, market sentiment showed slight improvement. (CCTV Finance)
