As we approach the official release of Morpho’s fixed rate markets protocol it’s becoming clear that it should not be seen as an iteration of the existing Morpho variable rate markets (today known as Markets V1). It is a completely new paradigm that’s unlike anything DeFi has seen before. Fixed rate markets are an extension of Morpho's offering, not a replacement. Variable rate markets remain a foundational part of DeFi for the few years to come. The two will complement one another. For that reason, we’re drop the versioning naming we've been using up until now, and the protocols will no longer be named Markets V1 and Markets V2. We’re changing: Markets V1 → Morpho “Blue” (as it was originally) Markets V2 → Morpho “[TBA]” Blue introduced permissionless open-term variable rate markets, with externalized risk management. [TBA] will introduce fixed term, fixed rate, intent lending, with externalized risk and rate management. A completely different structure for pricing and matching that will take Morpho from $10B to $100B+. As a side note: Morpho Vaults retain versioning because Vaults V2 is a direct improvement designed to supersede Vaults V1, exactly what versioning is meant to signal. It has been an incredibly hard 2 years of building [TBA], but we are very excited to share more information about Morpho fixed-rate markets soon.

are we back?

Not everything should be variable.

We're building finance like the early internet. Morpho Vaults V2 is open-source by design, permissionless by default. Find the GitHub repo below 👇
