Moonwell Flagship USDC
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 USDC into a lending vault on Base; it's lent out entirely to borrowers using WETH, cbBTC, and wstETH as collateral. The vault earns interest paid by those borrowers. All deposited cash is actively lent—there's no idle buffer.
Anthias Labs runs the vault, holding a concentrated book: 63% against WETH and 36% against cbBTC, both at 86% loan-to-value and 90% utilization.
The 3.90% APY comes from borrowing demand against crypto collateral (primarily WETH and cbBTC). Composition data does not break out incentive contributions.
The vault's risk comes entirely from two assets: WETH and cbBTC price moves. Both are held at 86% loan-to-value with 90% utilization—collateral gets seized if either drops ~14%. USDC itself is healthy. Risk score 25/100 reflects low overall probability of loss, but realized loss would occur if either collateral crashes.
Good fit for stablecoin allocators seeking 4% yield if comfortable with WETH and cbBTC price exposure; avoid if you need capital preservation or can't tolerate liquidation risk on those two assets.

The Moonwell Flagship USDC Morpho Vault curated by Anthias Labs is intended to optimize risk-adjusted interest earned from blue-chip collateral markets.
Morpho V2 vault — wraps downstream Morpho markets and V1 vaults via adapters.
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 V2 that affects the vault's largest single market (63% 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 62.7% 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).
V2 vaults route through adapters into downstream venues. A misbehaving adapter (paused, drained, or pointing at a compromised target) can lock or mismark a portion of the vault until governance acts.
100% of TVL is in markets running >85% utilization. Redemption requests on that slice queue until borrowers repay; remaining LPs absorb a small forced-exit discount.
Vault has $0M idle buffer (10% of $0M TVL). $50M of the $50M request queues; the redeemer takes a ~0.51% forced-exit discount weighted across collateral mix plus 13-day TVM cost. $50M of the request exceeds the vault's $0M TVL and cannot be redeemed at all.
48h sequencer halt on Base. Collateral drifts while liquidations are frozen; the LLTV buffer absorbs liquidation-clearable moves, the excess accrues as bad debt. Plus a small forced-exit discount on the 100% of TVL sitting in markets above 85% utilization. Total -0.58% NAV loss.
