Curated Credit: How Maple and Morpho Approach DeFi Lending | Sid Powell & Merlin Egalite

0xResearch

Crypto
Key Takeaways:
  1. Institutional capital is eyeing DeFi, pushing for tokenized real-world assets like private credit and bonds to diversify yield sources beyond crypto-backed loans. This requires robust risk isolation at the smart contract level and a new generation of independent risk assessors to bridge TradFi and DeFi.
  2. Prioritize protocols that offer explicit risk profiles and transparent fee structures, especially those building towards intent-based lending. For builders, focus on creating infrastructure that supports isolated risk and attracts independent rating agencies.
  3. The future of DeFi lending hinges on transparency and sophisticated risk management. As institutions enter, the demand for clear, independently verified risk assessments will intensify, making protocols that embrace these principles the winners in the next market cycle.
