Morpho Blue is a minimal peer‑to‑peer lending primitive where anyone can deploy an isolated market smart contract referencing an external Chainlink price feed. Rates dynamically converge toward Compound V3 curves but settle peer‑to‑peer, which removes spread capture by the protocol and routes it to lenders and borrowers. The entire factory is less than 500 lines of Solidity and was formally verified by Certora.
Pendle splits yield‑bearing tokens into Principal (PT) and Yield (YT) tokens, enabling users to lock in fixed rates or speculate on future yield. A permissionless AMM with a custom logit bonding curve lets YT premiums track forward‑looking yield expectations. Pendle TVL grew 10× in 2024 on the back of LST and RWA integrations, and PENDLE governance now controls a large veToken bribe market.
