With Morpho, our goal is to create a lending network that anyone on earth can comfortably build upon. Achieving a balance of power and ensuring credible neutrality are critical requirements imo. In light of the recent piece by @VitalikButerin on the Balance of Power, below are some of the ways Morpho balances power: → Vault V2 is open source (GPL2), forstering diffusion of technology → Vaults can be made fully noncustodial, preserving user agency → The protocol is credibly neutral and permissionless: anyone can create any vault or any market, fostering competition between entities. No decentralized theatre, no rent seeking & gate keeping → Immutable: nobody can ever change the behavior of the protocol forever → Morpho does not do curation, again to foster competition → One single asset (MORPHO), no equity that can skew incentives → etc Projects that fail to create those safeguards will end up recreating the same monopolistic and value-extracting behavior that we're seeing in "Big Businesses" and that we're exactly trying to fix...
