Morpho Blue is offering the ability to borrow WETH against osETH collateral, allowing users to increase their staking income.​ By depositing osETH and borrowing WETH, users can potentially earn higher yields on their staked assets.​ Borrowing WETH currently has a low interest rate of 1% per year, while staking it can yield 3.​5% or more.​ However, users should be aware of the risks involved, such as the depegging of osETH.​ It is recommended to keep the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio below 86% to avoid liquidation, with a recommended maximum LTV of 75%.​ For more details, check out the guide created by Morpho Labs.​
