Bitwise Expands Onchain Solutions With Introduction of Non-Custodial Vault Curation on Morpho
Bitwise Asset Management, a global crypto asset manager with more than $15 billion in client assets, today announced a new onchain investor solution: non-custodial vault curation. The vault offering is powered by Morpho, an onchain lending network that provides programmable and non-custodial infrastructure for onchain lending and borrowing. The underlying strategy and real-time risk management are led by Jonathan Man, CFA, Bitwise Portfolio Manager and Head of Multi-Strategy Solutions and DeFi Strategies, leveraging the expertise of Bitwise’s 140-person team of technology and investment professionals.
Vaults are onchain lending strategies that function similarly to a portfolio of lending positions. Bitwise’s first vault strategy is powered by Morpho’s open, modular architecture for implementing scalable, custom onchain strategies with systematic risk management. The Bitwise strategy on Morpho’s vault currently targets an annual percentage yield of 6%.
“Decentralized finance, or DeFi, offers compelling yield opportunities, but the complexity of managing onchain risk has kept many investors on the sidelines,” said Bitwise’s Man. “That’s why we’re so excited for Bitwise to enter vault curation. Bitwise provides value-add by layering professional guidance and risk management experience onto these non-custodial tools.”
Morpho’s vault utilizes a set of smart contracts to programmatically invest funds on behalf of its clients with the aim of generating digital yield.
“Bitwise joining Morpho as a vault curator highlights growing institutional demand for allocating capital onchain through noncustodial infrastructure,” said Paul Frambot, Co-founder and CEO of Morpho. “Morpho Vaults are built for institutional use, enabling professionally defined risk parameters to be expressed directly onchain and making them the perfect foundation for Bitwise’s entry into vault curation. As major institutions like Bitwise recognise the value in diversified fixed-income strategies in digital assets, vaults are emerging as a core building block of onchain finance strategies.”
