Moonwell Borrowing Surges Across Networks

Borrowing activity accelerated across Moonwell's lending markets last week, with notable increases on multiple chains. **Key Metrics:** - USDT borrows on Ethereum: **+236%** - USDC borrows on Ethereum: **+148%** - VELO borrows on OP Mainnet: **+206%** (reaching nearly 6M VELO) This uptick follows recent protocol enhancements, including new borrow incentives for USDC, USDT, ETH, and cbBTC on Ethereum. Users can now earn WELL tokens while borrowing these assets. The growth comes as Moonwell continues expanding across chains. Since launching on Ethereum in June, the protocol has attracted over $3.5M in supplied assets. Supply-side WELL incentives remain active across all Ethereum markets. Moonwell operates on Ethereum, Base, and OP Mainnet, offering lending and borrowing for stablecoins, ETH, cbBTC, and other assets. All smart contracts are audited by Halborn Security.
