Morpho’s Optimizers set the bar for efficient lending and borrowing, making it a key integration as Sommelier expands access to the best of DeFi including Aave, Compound, Uniswap, 1Inch, 0x, and now, Morpho.

Sommelier vaults like Real Yield ETH have successfully used borrowing markets for leveraged looping strategies paired with sophisticated position health monitoring to deliver best-in-class ETH yields to depositors, while Real Yield USD optimizes stablecoin yield by dynamically supplying across lending markets.

With Morpho, strategists, and in turn end users, have the opportunity to unlock even better vault performance. The protocol’s peer-to-peer matching system builds upon the pool model used by the likes of Aave and Compound to enable improved rates for both lending and borrowing.

As an example, the RYETH strategy is highly sensitivity to borrowing costs. By capitalizing on Morpho’s improved rates, it has the potential to increase the already impressive overall returns earned by depositors.

Audited by macro, Sommelier’s smart contract integration with Morpho is the latest in a series of adaptors built to expand the design space for strategists developing vaults.

Thanks to its native yield improvements, Morpho is empowering the next generation of DeFi applications and protocols, with over $875M is supplied assets.

Morpho Optimizers have become essential integrations for protocols seeking improved returns and cheaper borrowing costs. In addition to Sommelier, projects such as Instadapp, DeFi Saver, Index Coop, Idle Finance, Spool, Sense, and Origin are all leveraging Morpho’s superior rates.

Sommelier is an innovative asset management protocol whose mission is to make DeFi more accessible, profitable, and efficient for everyone. The project enables intelligent vaults that optimize portfolios by predicting, reacting and responding to changing DeFi conditions.

Sommelier is unique in that while being a natively cross-chain application, those technical details are completely abstracted away from the user to deliver a seamless, ecosystem-native experience.

The Sommelier blockchain, built on the Cosmos SDK, serves as a routing and coordination hub enabling strategy providers to operate off-chain models to inform rebalance decisions and then execute those rebalances on-chain in a decentralized manner.

The end result of this architecture is a system that gives users access to highly sophisticated, market-adaptive vaults using decentralized architecture. Importantly, users access these vaults and their benefits natively on Ethereum without having to onboard to the Cosmos ecosystem or bridge assets.

Built on top of Aave and Compound, Morpho Optimizers allow users to earn more and pay less, while maintaining the same liquidity and risk parameters. In practice, the UX is almost identical to that of Aave and Compound, except for improved rates.

Each optimizer has a matching engine that stores user positions, similar to an onchain order book. When there is a match, Morpho creates peer-to-peer credit lines between suppliers and borrowers.

When a supplier is matched with a borrower, they are disconnected from the lending pool and are paired with each other. If the supplier chooses to exit their position, Morpho automatically reconnects the borrower with the lending pool, and vice versa.

When users are in a peer-to-peer position, they can benefit from a near-zero spread since they are no longer required to bear the spread of the underlying pool.
