DeFi lending platform Morpho has secured $775 million in pre-deposits from Stable, a Bitfinex-backed stablechain. These funds will be managed by risk manager Gauntlet and allocated across various Morpho vaults. In a strategic expansion, Morpho has also announced support for Optimism, an Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution, and is offering 300,000 OP tokens as incentives to attract new deposits.
