Morpho is a trustless, permissionless lending primitive where anyone can create isolated markets with immutable parameters. Vaults built on top allow curators to manage diversified lending strategies.
When supply matches borrow demand, the protocol connects users directly. This eliminates the pool's fee spread, splitting the benefit to give lenders higher yields and borrowers lower costs.
If no direct match is available, funds automatically flow to the underlying pool (like Aave or Compound). This ensures you always have liquidity and earn at least the standard market rate.

Existing lending protocols like Aave and Compound use shared liquidity pools where a single governance mistake or risky asset can drain the entire pool. They also extract protocol fees from both lenders and borrowers, reducing capital efficiency.
