Felix USDC
- Unrecognized Collateral AssetYELLOWPT-kHYPE-19MAR2026 / USDC
Morpho has flagged the PT-kHYPE-19MAR2026 / USDC market: unrecognized_collateral_asset.
Plain-English summary of this vault — what it does, who runs it, where the yield comes from, and what could break it. Generated from the same deterministic inputs shown elsewhere on this page; the numbers are the source, this is just the explanation.
Depositors put in USDC and earn interest from borrowers who pledge HyperEVM tokens (mainly kHYPE, a staking derivative) as collateral. The vault lends at rates set by supply and demand on Morpho Blue markets; it's fully deployed with no idle cash, so all deposits are actively borrowed against.
Felix runs a concentrated, single-collateral book — 97% of capital lent against kHYPE at a 63% loan-to-value ratio on HyperEVM.
The 4.91% APY comes from borrower interest (4.66%) paid on kHYPE loans, plus a small 0.25% boost from Morpho protocol incentives and curator rewards; the vault carries no idle buffer.
The vault is exposed almost entirely to kHYPE (a liquid staking derivative) price moves — if kHYPE drops more than 37% from current levels, collateral at the 63% threshold gets liquidated. Morpho has flagged kHYPE as an unrecognized collateral asset, adding execution risk in a stress scenario.
Good fit for risk-tolerant allocators seeking yield on USDC with concentrated LRT exposure; avoid if you need stablecoin preservation or can't absorb single-asset correlation.
How the composite risk score breaks down. Every number traces to an explicit input — /methodology documents each factor's formula.
The Felix USDC vault supplies USDC to mature high liquidity Morpho Blue markets where loans are backed by liquid blue-chip collateral per-market caps and allocations are curator-managed to prioritize predictable risk-adjusted stablecoin yield.
What you are actually getting paid for, expressed as a share of net APY.
Interest paid by borrowers on Morpho Blue markets the vault supplies into.

The honest version. Every structural failure mode this vault is exposed to, ranked by severity. If you want to know whether to invest, start here.
Primary loan or collateral asset is a stablecoin. A sustained depeg below 99 cents impacts NAV and disables liquidation routing for non-USD collateral.
Vault is split across 6 markets. More markets means more parameter surface area for the curator to monitor.
What this vault is actually exposed to — including dependencies that are not visible from the strategy name.
Every market the vault has supplied into, with current LTV, LLTV, oracle, and IRM. Idle balances are listed explicitly.
Modeled NAV impact under historical and hypothetical tail events. Each impact = − (shock magnitude) × (vault exposure) × (pass-through). Hover the calculator icon for the per-scenario formula.
Tail-case: a vulnerability surfaces in Morpho Blue that affects the vault's largest single market (97% of TVL). Modeled at 50% loss on that exposure; full vault is not assumed at risk since markets are isolated.
Curator routes into a market that develops bad debt or an oracle break. Worst single position is 97.3% of TVL; top-3 concentration is 100%. Modeled at 50% bad-debt recovery on the worst position.
March 2023 SVB episode: USDC traded as low as $0.88 before banking exposure was clarified. Mark-to-market loss on 100% of vault TVL (the loan asset is USDC).
Vault has $2M idle buffer (16% of $16M TVL). $48M of the $50M request queues; the redeemer takes a ~0.50% forced-exit discount weighted across collateral mix plus 12-day TVM cost. $34M of the request exceeds the vault's $16M TVL and cannot be redeemed at all.
