Pharos Network Partners with Morpho to Enhance On-Chain Lending Infrastructure
In an exciting development, Pharos Network, a prominent Layer 1 blockchain focusing on Real-World Asset Finance (RWAfi), has formed a strategic alliance with Morpho, a renowned lending network boasting over $9 billion in total deposits. This collaboration aims to integrate Morpho’s advanced lending framework into the Pharos mainnet, as reported by Finbold on August 7, 2025.
Building a Robust Lending Framework on Pharos Mainnet
Pharos Network is thrilled to announce its integration with @MorphoLabs, a trusted name in the lending sector. By embedding Morpho’s lending solutions directly into the Pharos Mainnet, Pharos aims to establish a sophisticated infrastructure capable of supporting complex, institutional-grade strategies. This initiative aligns with the network’s commitment to maintaining the flexibility and transparency that define decentralized finance (DeFi).

Establishing Institutional-Grade Lending Rails
The partnership sets the stage for the creation of institutional-grade lending rails within the on-chain real-world asset ecosystem. Morpho’s deployment on Pharos will facilitate capital-efficient lending while minimizing risk exposure to RWA vaults. This integration will pave the way for dynamic credit markets for asset originators and liquidity providers.
Morpho as the Official Lending Infrastructure Provider
With this collaboration, Morpho is positioned as the official lending infrastructure provider for Pharos. This partnership supports the broader RWAfi strategy, working alongside key players like Ant Digital, R25, and Gauntlet. Together, they aim to offer both DeFi-native and institutional participants transparent and modular tools for lending and credit risk modeling.
A Transparent and Capital-Efficient On-Chain Credit Ecosystem
Wish Wu, CTO and Co-Founder at Pharos, expressed the significance of this collaboration: “Working together with Morpho is about building trust and composability at the core of RWAfi. By integrating Morpho’s lending infrastructure directly into our mainnet, we’re laying the foundation for a more transparent and capital-efficient on-chain credit ecosystem. It enables us to support complex, institution-grade lending strategies while preserving the modularity and openness that define DeFi.”
Expanding Morpho’s Trusted Lending Infrastructure
Kirk Hutchison, responsible for New Chains Growth at Morpho, highlighted the alignment of their goals: “Deploying natively on Pharos allows us to extend Morpho’s trusted lending infrastructure into the real-world asset space. Following initial successes with private credit and tokenized stocks, Pharos’ vision for RWAfi aligns with our commitment to creating transparent and scalable credit systems. Together, we are building a powerful infrastructure for structured lending products, better risk pricing, and more accessible yield opportunities across both institutional and retail markets.”
Supporting Future Vault Launches and Capital Deployment
Morpho’s protocol is set to support Pharos’ upcoming vault launches and capital deployment frameworks. Initial deployments will concentrate on institutional vault designs, enhanced by Pharos’ expertise in credit modeling, liquidity routing, and custody. This native integration is crafted to ensure compatibility with Pharos’ existing infrastructure and foster experimentation around RWA yield structures and capital matching algorithms.
