Onchain lending for institutions: Elwood partners with Morpho, Steakhouse Financial, and Gauntlet. Elwood runs execution, portfolio management, and risk around the clock. From today, lending joins the same 24/7 platform, in partnership with Morpho, Steakhouse Financial, and Gauntlet. Onchain lending has reached institutional scale. From today, 25 June 2026, Elwood's Portfolio Management module supports Morpho Earn positions natively. Institutional clients can deposit into vaults curated by Steakhouse Financial and Gauntlet from inside the Elwood interface, monitor vault metrics and curator risk metrics alongside the rest of the book, and sign and execute through their own wallet infrastructure (MetaMask, WalletConnect, Fireblocks). Keys never leave custody. Onchain lending positions sit on the same platform that runs execution management, portfolio management, risk, collateral, and reconciliation. Morpho is an onchain lending protocol built around isolated lending markets and curated vaults, with more than $11 billion in deposits. Lenders deposit into a vault and the vault allocates that deposit across underlying markets, with defined risk parameters, that have been determined by the vault's curator. The protocol itself is non-custodial; the curator is the active risk decision-maker for each vault. Yet, until now, allocating to a vault through native interfaces has been a fragmented experience: * No unified view: Morpho's own UI shows individual vault positions, but institutions managing capital across multiple vaults, curators, and chains have no consolidated portfolio picture. They cannot see their Morpho exposure alongside their CeFi book. * No institutional risk monitoring: without active monitoring of supply and liquidity across all allocated markets, institutions risk capital lockup at the worst possible time. * No compliance trail: no auditable position records, P&L attribution, and reporting that integrates with their existing operational infrastructure. For a regulated fund, a treasury carrying disclosure obligations, or a wealth and asset manager running yield sleeves inside a portfolio risk framework, this creates a significant structural operating gap: the institution can hold the position, but cannot see the curator's risk dimensions inside its own surface, cannot reconcile the position against the rest of the book, and cannot cite the exposure in an audit or LP report the way every other instrument is cited. What does an institutional surface for onchain lending need to do? To overcome these structural gaps, an institutional offering needs: * Vault metrics in the institutional view, not on a separate site: deposit base, supply rate, allocation, utilisation, surfaced inside the same surface that holds the rest of the book. * Curator risk metrics in the institutional view, alongside vault metrics: collateral at Risk and the curator's other risk dimensions visible at the position level, not buried on the curator's research site. * Position rollup with the rest of the book: onchain lending positions sit alongside spot, derivatives, OTC trades, loans, and collateral in one portfolio view, not in a parallel rail. * Active liquidity monitoring with alerting: Morpho vaults can become temporarily illiquid during stress events because borrowers have to repay before lenders can withdraw. The institutional surface has to watch supply and liquidity across every allocated market and alert when conditions move. * Reconciliation against the venue: trade and balance reconciliation against vault records, with breaks flagged for ops investigation, and yield events booked into P&L automatically rather than entered by hand. * Reporting that cites the position: onchain lending exposure as a first-class line in regulatory, audit, and investor reports, not buried as "other". * Non-custodial execution: position initiation through the institutional platform; signing and execution through the institution's own wallet infrastructure. Keys never leave custody. Few firms have an institutional surface that does all of the above. Most have a workaround: a vault UI, a curator's research page, a spreadsheet, a custom dashboard, and a quarterly explanation. Yet, for institutional participants that are looking to operate at scale, this is not sufficient. How does Elwood's Portfolio Management system support Morpho Earn positions? Elwood has solved for this, through partnering with Morpho, Gauntlet, and Steakhouse Financial. Elwood's Portfolio Management module supports Morpho Earn positions natively, within its institutional surface. Through this, institutional clients can: * Browse curated vaults from Steakhouse Financial and Gauntlet * Initiate lending positions through Elwood's UI, with on-chain execution via their own wallet infrastructure (MetaMask, WalletConnect) * Actively assess vault allocations across every Morpho market their capital is deployed to; monitoring APY, liquidity, total supply, and allocation breakdowns in a single view. * Track risk in real time including vault liquidity drawdowns, concentration risk, and position health across their full portfolio (DeFi and CeFi combined) * Receive alerts when vault conditions change, such as liquidity drops, utilisation spikes, or positions approach stress thresholds * Book positions automatically into PMS with accurate P&L tracking, including accrued yield. Curator lineup at launch: Steakhouse Financial and Gauntlet. Both curators manage more than a billion dollars in vault deposits, publish detailed curator risk metrics for every vault they manage, and are already powering institutional-grade products elsewhere in the market. Steakhouse Financial is the largest stablecoin vault curator on Morpho, with over $1.7B in TVL across over 67 vaults. Of that, over $1.5B is stablecoins, roughly 40% of all stablecoin TVL on Morpho and around twice the next-largest curator. More than 60 institutional partners use Steakhouse as their curator of choice, including Coinbase, Société Générale, and Crypto.com, where Steakhouse is the exclusive curator. The vaults span Prime and High Yield, as well as selective ecosystem vaults, each with its own risk posture and collateral profile. Steakhouse has curated continuously since January 2024, one of the longest track records on Morpho, with no bad debt. Gauntlet is a leading yield vault curator in crypto, bringing over eight years of cryptoeconomic research and risk management to 100+ integrations across fintechs, institutions, and neobanks, with over $1.5B in supplied assets across its vaults. On Morpho, Gauntlet curates over $1B across 63 vaults, structured into Prime (blue-chip collateral), Balanced (blended), and Frontier (higher-yield, newer markets). This includes Morpho's largest vault: Gauntlet USDC Prime on Base. Agent-based simulations continuously model market scenarios, DEX liquidity, and network conditions to size allocations within bounds. Collateral at Risk is one of the curator risk metrics published by Gauntlet for each vault under management. It quantifies the share of vault collateral exposed at defined health-factor thresholds under stress scenarios, surfacing concentrated downside risk that vault-level deposit and supply metrics do not show on their own. Steakhouse and Gauntlet are the anchor curators at launch. Additional curators and additional onchain lending venues join the same surface as institutional access matures. Who is this for? The integration is designed for institutional teams managing capital that needs both yield and operational discipline: * Crypto hedge funds - earning yield on idle wallet capital between trades. * Treasuries and DAOs - putting reserve assets to productive use through professionally curated, risk-tiered vaults, with the audit trail required for disclosure obligations. * Wealth and asset managers - adding yield sleeves to institutional portfolios with proper risk controls and a unified portfolio view. * Existing Morpho depositors - who want consolidated monitoring, alerting, and portfolio-level visibility across every vault position, rather than a per-vault UI and a separate research site. * Multi-asset institutional desks - running a single book who need exchange balances, OTC trades, derivatives, loans, collateral, and onchain lending positions to render, reconcile, and report through one portfolio surface. Onchain lending is the latest example of an instrument context moving from a venue-native retail product into institutional flow. The market structure question that shapes adoption is the same one it has been for every previous instrument context: at what point does the institutional surface model the position well enough that institutional capital can deploy at scale? For curated Morpho vaults via Steakhouse Financial and Gauntlet, it begins today. Get started. Elwood's Morpho integration is available now for institutional clients; not for retail. All figures referenced in this post are accurate as of 25/06/26. References:

Elwood US is launching platform connectivity to Kalshi, the CFTC-regulated prediction market, enabling institutional clients to manage event contracts using the same compliance, risk analytics and reconciliation tools they use across their portfolios. The integration addresses operational gaps for institutional desks holding direct access to event contracts, which became available at CFTC-regulated venues following Commission approval. Venue-native portals were not designed for institutional operating models requiring 24/7 risk monitoring and post-trade infrastructure. Elwood's platform will support event contracts across the full trade lifecycle, extending its connectivity beyond digital asset exchanges and CME to include prediction markets. The system already serves hedge funds, asset managers and broker-dealers with SOC2 Type II and ISO 27001 certification. The integration is available only to Elwood customers in jurisdictions where prediction markets are legally permissible.
