Strengths and weaknesses

In its favour

Large, fast-growing book: ~$2.7B on DefiLlama, and Morpho vaults of $1.36B with no share-price decline in any vault above $0.5M.
Publishes research every week (a weekly digest and articles) and uses timelocks plus 2–3 sentinels on its main V2 vaults.

Against it

Short track record: its first curated vault dates from September 2025.
Its AUM relies on few counterparties: most Morpho assets sit in a handful of issuer-partner vaults (PYUSD, RLUSD). A large part of the DefiLlama figure is BoringVault strategies on Ink ($898M) rather than lending-market curation.

How to read these tables

No paid placement. Nobody buys a position, a score or a mention. We take no affiliate commission on any link in this section, and operators do not see their score before it publishes.

Scores are read from the record. Each one is derived from the fact printed beside it — a published attestation, a contract, a register entry, an incident report — against bands that describe evidentiary states. Facts age: each table carries the date it was last verified, and this is not an audit.

Nothing here is financial advice. Crypto services fail, change terms and withdraw from markets without notice. Verify anything that matters directly with the provider, and tell us when we get something wrong.
