Morpho's Borrow Booster markets are offering negative interest rates on USDC loans across Base and Ethereum networks.​

Key Features:

  • Borrowers earn ~9.​7% APY while taking USDC loans
  • Available on both Base (Super OETH market) and Ethereum (OETH market)
  • Auto-deleverage feature provides automatic risk management
  • Higher LTV loops generate more rewards

How It Works: The markets use yield generated by OETH and Super OETH tokens to subsidize borrowing costs, effectively paying users to borrow rather than charging them.​

Risk Management: Auto-deleverage handles risk trims automatically, allowing users to maintain higher loan-to-value ratios while reducing liquidation pressure.​

Both markets are accessible through Morpho's platform with competitive LTV ratios - 86% on Ethereum and 77% on Base.​
