Bitwise & Morpho: Making DeFi Vaults Great Again (With 6% APY!)

by

Well, slap my face and call me a blockchain – Bitwise Asset Management, the crypto wizards, have teamed up with Morpho, the DeFi lending protocol, to create non-custodial on-chain vaults. Because who needs a bank when you can have a digital safe with a 6% APY? They announced this financial revolution on X (formerly known as Twitter, for those of us still living in 2023), promising to make your crypto work harder than a barista on a Monday morning.

Bitwise: Vaults are the New Black (And They Pay Interest)

According to their X announcement (which I’m sure was meticulously crafted by a team of marketing geniuses), Bitwise is all about these “on-chain vaults,” calling them the future of finance. Think of them like a piggy bank, but instead of loose change, you’ve got digital assets, and instead of your mom stealing your quarters, you’ve got algorithms working overtime to earn you a sweet 6% APY. They’re basically saying, “Finance is moving online, and we’re here to make sure your crypto doesn’t just sit there looking pretty.”

Their secret weapon? Overcollateralized lending pools. It’s like a game of financial Jenga, but with less chance of everything crashing down (hopefully).

“Finance is moving onchain. Vaults are a key part of that, offering investors a transparent way to earn digital yield on their assets.”

Today, we’re excited to announce that Bitwise is launching non-custodial vault strategies as a curator on @Morpho.

Bitwise, ever the trendsetter, has been hyping vaults lately, calling them “onchain investment funds.” Basically, you toss your crypto into the vault, and some financial wizard (aka Jonathan Man, their portfolio manager) works his magic to make it grow. They’re predicting a 100% surge in assets under management this year, which is either incredibly optimistic or they’ve got a crystal ball hidden in their server room.

Bitwise: ETF Queen with a Side of DeFi

When they’re not busy vaulting your crypto, Bitwise is dominating the crypto ETF game. They’ve launched more altcoin funds than you can shake a blockchain at, joining the likes of Grayscale in the race to make crypto investing as mainstream as buying Starbucks.

Their latest masterpiece? The Bitwise Chainlink ETF (ticker: CLNK), the second fund in the U.S. to let you directly own LINK tokens. And get this – they’re waiving the management fee for the first $500 million in assets for three months. That’s like getting a free latte with your crypto investment!

But wait, there’s more! They also launched the Bitwise Proficio Currency Debasement ETF, a fund that combines Bitcoin with gold and precious metals, because why not hedge your bets against the apocalypse?
