0xResearch
Morpho origins and early product evolution
Merlin recounts Morpho's start, Optimizer growth, and pivot to building a standalone lending protocol across chains.
We went live with leaders from across the Base DeFi ecosystem to discuss Aerodrome’s tokenomics, buyback system, and relationship with Coinbase; Morpho’s lending model, fixed-rate loans, and TradFi integrations; and Moonwell’s vaults, Mamo agent, and card products.
Thanks for tuning in!

Katana directs chain revenue back to DeFi users for consistently higher yields. It starts with VaultBridge, which turns bridged assets into yield streams that back a perpetually funded real yield, boosting rewards for DeFi users. Katana is pioneering Productive TVL, assets actually being used in DeFi and reinforces this with Chain-owned Liquidity, permanent liquidity the chain controls.
