Galaxy joins Morpho as curator with the launch of its institutional stablecoin vaults. As a global leader in digital assets, @galaxyhq is bringing its expertise from traditional markets to the Morpho ecosystem. Asset curation is here to stay.

EXCLUSIVE: Robinhood is going to pay 7% on dollars to 27.7 million customers. In this Interview Johann Kerbrat, their SVP of Crypto explains how it all works. Robinhood Earn lives inside the main investing app. You can buy the USDG stablecoin in a few taps, and it gets deployed into vaults built with Morpho and Steakhouse, and the target yield is roughly 7%. Where does 7% come from? Market makers and liquidity providers pay it. These are traders who need USDG liquidity to run spot and perps trading. Your deposit is funding someone else's 50x leverage, and you're the one getting paid for it. Assuming you get paid back. Which, as we've seen, doesn't always work in DeFi with hacks and smart contract risk. But Robinhood has done something extra to make this retail-grade. Robinhood's answer is an insurance program with Lloyd's of London and Relm covering smart contract and vault failure. He says it's one of the largest ever built for a crypto product. Earn was one of 12 announcements; some others that caught my eye: Stock tokens in 120+ countries, backed 1:1 by real equities. You can withdraw them to a self-custody wallet and post them as collateral. Borrowing against a stock portfolio used to be a private banking perk; now it's a smart contract. Robinhood Chain went to public mainnet after 200 million transactions on testnet. Perps on stocks, crypto, and commodities at 20 to 50x leverage, bringing an entire new asset class to the mainstream. Robinhood is all in on DeFi. DeFi protocols spent a decade fighting for users. Robinhood just made a Morpho vault look like a savings account, in front of 27.7m funded customers.

Robinhood Earn, powered by Morpho Millions of eligible @RobinhoodApp users can now earn onchain yield from a Morpho Vault curated by @SteakhouseFi via noncustodial wallets. This is how we bring the benefits of onchain finance to the world.

Personal news: I've joined @Morpho full-time as a solutions engineer focusing in the APAC region. I've been public about my obsession with Morpho since the protocol showed up in 2023, and I've been building @monarchlend for more than two years. Along the way I've talked to countless teams and individuals building on top of Morpho, and it became clear to me that this immutable contract is becoming one of the most trusted pieces of code on EVM. What I didn't see at the beginning is how much Morpho has quietly been doing to onboard the real world — a team bigger than any other in DeFi, dedicated entirely to that movement. That's some unprecedented effort, compounding for three years. With Morpho Midnight coming, lending is about to expand fast. Midnight adds a new dimension — duration — both a challenge and something familiar to TradFi. Risk curation becomes far more than asset selection, and the best curators will push lending to a new level. This is DeFi's one shot to prove smart contracts can be a trustless layer like Ethereum, and make finance better. If any institution wants to go onchain and manage money for users, I want them to use Morpho. Because as an immutable layer, Morpho gives end users the best protection: the cleanest isolated markets for proper risk assessments, the most trustworthy base layer to settle loans, and the most tools in the ecosystem to keep finance transparent onchain. That's what ultimately made me join. I'll keep working on Monarch in my own time, and slowly hand it over to other builders in the Morpho ecosystem in the next few months. I'll make sure Monarch keeps existing as an independent platform and service provider — for anyone who wants a different access point to Morpho. It'll always be here. Before I joined, I tried to make sure everything I did was best for the Morpho protocol and $MORPHO. After joining, I'll do exactly the same. Morpho will win.

Charlie Munger spent 50 years studying why intelligent people make catastrophically stupid decisions. It is the most useful thing I have ever watched: 1. Incentives are more powerful than anyone thinks. Munger says he has been in the top 5% of his age cohort his entire life in understanding the power of incentives and he has still underestimated it every single year. Federal Express could not get their night shift to work efficiently until someone realized they were paying by the hour. They switched to paying by the shift. The problem disappeared immediately. 2. People rationalise terrible behavior when their incentives point that way, and they do not even know they are doing it. A doctor in Nebraska was removing perfectly healthy gallbladders for years. When Munger asked an old colleague whether the doctor knew he was harming patients, the answer was no. he genuinely believed the gallbladder was the source of all medical evil and that removing it was an act of love. That is incentive-caused bias at its most extreme. 3. Psychological denial is real, and it is not just for weak people. A family friend's son flew off a carrier in the North Atlantic and never came back. His mother, a completely sane woman, simply never believed he was dead. Reality was too painful, so she distorted it until it was bearable. Munger says we all do this to some extent, and it causes terrible problems. 4. Consistency and commitment tendency are one of the most powerful forces in the human mind. Once you have stated a position publicly, you are psychologically locked into it. Max Planck said the really important new physics was never accepted by the old guard. A new guard came along that was less brain blocked by its previous conclusions. If this happened to the deans of physics, Munger says, imagine what it does to ordinary people. 5. The Chinese brainwashing system used on prisoners of war worked better than torture. They did not start with big demands. They maneuvered people into making tiny little commitments and declarations and slowly built from there. The same mechanism operates in every cult, every sales system, and every ideology that gets deeply embedded in people's heads. 6. Pavlovian association shapes buying behavior at a level most people never consciously process. Munger estimates three quarters of all advertising works on pure Pavlov. Coca-Cola does not want to be associated with funerals. They want to be associated with the Olympics, wonderful music, heroics. The association itself changes how people feel about the product at a subconscious level. Raising the price of a product can actually increase its market share because price and quality are associated in the human mind, and people use price as a signal of value. 7. Persian messenger syndrome is alive and running every major organization. The Persians killed the messenger who brought bad news. Bill Paley in his last 20 years, did not hear one thing he did not want to hear. everyone around him knew bringing bad news was dangerous. The result was that one of the most powerful men in media made terrible decisions for two decades because reality never reached him. 8. Social proof causes otherwise intelligent people to follow each other off cliffs. When one oil company bought a fertilizer company in the 1970s, practically every other major oil company rushed out and did the same. There was no rational reason for oil companies to own fertilizer companies. But if Exxon was doing it, it was good enough for Mobil. Every single acquisition was a disaster. 9. The efficient market theory persisted in academia for decades despite Berkshire Hathaway existing as a living contradiction. One economist kept adding sigmas to explain away the anomaly. two sigma, then three, then four, eventually six sigma. Munger's observation: It is better to add a sigma than change a theory just because the evidence comes in differently. That economist later went into money management himself and sank like a stone. 10. Contrast bias warps perception constantly and invisibly. Put your hand in hot water, then room temperature water. It feels cold. Put your hand in cold water, then room temperature water. It feels hot. same bucket. The human sensory apparatus has no absolute scale, only a contrast scale. Real estate agents exploit this deliberately. They show you two overpriced, awful houses first, then take you to a merely overpriced house, and it feels like a bargain. 11. The frog in slowly heating water is the business version of contrast bias. If something bad comes to you in small pieces, you are likely to miss it entirely. Munger says he has known many high-powered brilliant businessmen who were destroyed this way. not because they were stupid but because each incremental change was too small to trigger alarm. The contrast was never large enough to notice. 12. Authority bias is so powerful it can make trained professionals watch a plane crash. In flight simulator experiments, when the pilot, the authority figure, does something that any trained co-pilot knows will crash the plane, 25% of the time, the co-pilot sits there and lets it crash anyway. They have been trained to know better. The authority relationship overrides the training. 13. Deprivation super reaction syndrome explains why people go insane over small losses. Munger's neighbor had a 180 degree view of the harbor. the neighbor put in a pine tree about 3 feet high that turned it into a 179 and three-quarter degree view. They had a blood feud that went on for years. The New Coke disaster is the corporate version. Coca-Cola told customers they were changing a flavor and triggered a deprival super reaction so powerful that Pepsi was weeks away from releasing old Coke in a Pepsi bottle. smart engineers. brilliant lawyers. armies of psychologists. All missed it. 14. Envy and jealousy are far more powerful than greed and almost entirely absent from psychology textbooks. Munger says Warren Buffett has said half a dozen times that it is not greed that drives the world but envy. In a thousand-page psychology textbook, the index entry for envy and jealousy is blank. One of the most powerful forces in human behavior and academia essentially ignores it. 15. Gambling addiction is not explained by variable reinforcement alone. Skinner thought he had fully explained gambling by showing that variable reward schedules pound in behavior more powerfully than fixed ones. But the people who design modern slot machines know things Skinner did not. Lotteries where you pick your own number get far more play than lotteries where the number is assigned to you. People who commit to a number believe it has more validity because they chose it. Near misses on slot machines trigger deprival super reaction syndrome. It is four or five psychological tendencies working together, not one. 16. The most dangerous situations are when multiple psychological tendencies combine toward the same end at once. Munger calls this the lollapalooza effect. Tupperware parties use four or five tendencies simultaneously. Moonie conversion methods combine multiple tendencies and work extraordinarily well. alcoholics anonymous achieves a 50% no drinking rate when everything else fails because it also combines multiple tendencies toward a constructive end. The Milgram experiment is not just about obedience. it involves authority bias, consistency and commitment tendency, and contrast effects all working together. That combination turns human brains into mush. 17. Boards of directors are structurally designed to fail as corrective mechanisms. The top executive is the authority figure. He is doing something questionable. You look around, and nobody else is objecting, which is social proof that it is fine. He flies you around in the corporate jet and raises your director fees every year, which triggers reciprocation tendency. Munger's rule: boards only act when the behavior gets so bad it starts making them look foolish or threatens legal liability. That is the only forcing function that reliably works. 18. John Goodfriend of Salomon Brothers destroyed his career and reputation because he did not fire a trusted employee who had lied to the government. Every psychological tendency pointed toward keeping the man. He was a close colleague. His wife was known. He was part of a group that had made over a billion dollars for the firm. He said he had never done it before and would never do it again. Goodfriend looked into his eyes and believed him. The man did it again. The lesson: everyone who gets caught embezzling says they have never done it before and will never do it again. That is what they all say. 19. Darwin avoided confirmation bias by deliberately seeking out disconfirming evidence. Munger says Darwin was not especially smart by ordinary standards of human acuity. Yet he is buried in Westminster Abbey. Munger studied how Darwin worked and realized he had psychological tricks worth learning. Darwin always paid extra attention to evidence that contradicted his theories. Munger started doing the same and credits it as one of the most important intellectual habits of his life. 20. Why is the most important word in communication? Carl Braun designed oil refineries with spectacular skill, and you got fired in his company if you wrote a communication without explaining why. not just who, what, where, and when, but why. Braun knew that in a complex system where things can blow up, a communication system that always explains the reason behind an instruction works dramatically better than one that does not. Forstein, the general counsel of Salomon, told Goodfriend on multiple occasions that he had to report the employee's misconduct. He explained it was the right thing to do. He never explained what would happen to Goodfriend personally if he did not. he failed to use the most powerful tool of persuasion. Goodfriend ignored him. When Goodfriend went down, Forstein went with him.
