Paul Frambot is the CoFounder and CEO of Morpho.

In this episode, we explore how Morpho's modular, permissionless infrastructure prices risk, allowing anyone to create lending and borrowing markets with any asset. Paul shares his insights on Morpho’s popular Coinbase integration for $600M in Bitcoin-backed loans, the growing role of RWAs, and why Morpho recently transitioned to a token-only model. We also dive into how Morpho V2 will introduce fixed-rate lending and multichain expansion, plus their grand ambition to collapse the cost of trust in finance.
