Morpho is a noncustodial lending protocol for overcollateralized borrowing and lending of crypto assets on EVM networks. The core protocol implements permissionless isolated markets defined by collateral asset, loan asset and fixed risk parameters, and tracks lender balances, borrower debt and interest accrual on chain. On top of this base layer, Morpho Vaults accept deposits and allocate liquidity across selected markets within predefined risk guidelines, providing passive exposure to lending strategies while leaving collateral management and liquidations to the underlying markets.
