Where does a deposit go?

One USDC deposit, from your wallet to the borrower — and back as yield.

1
You deposit USDC

Into a frgmnt vault on Morpho (Base). Non-custodial — your wallet stays in control.

2
The vault allocates it

Across Morpho lending markets, with a cap per market. Supply only — zero leverage on the vault side.

3
Borrowers post collateral

Worth more than they borrow (e.g. Coinbase tokenized stocks). Overcollateralized.

$
Interest (+ rewards) flows back

Borrowers pay interest; some markets add Merkl rewards. That’s the APR — and why it moves.

!
If collateral falls

Positions can be liquidated. That reduces risk to lenders — it doesn’t erase it.

Educational only — not advice. Rates are variable. DeFi has smart-contract, collateral, liquidation and depeg risks.

Curious what that rate means in dollars?
