Reply to @theDAHTcom: Coinbase loans just got a LOT more expensive overnight.
@Coinbase BTC-backed loan interest rates spiked from ~5% to over 13.8%
It's settled down slightly to 9.75% this morning. Currently ~2x the cost of the loan as is was yesterday.
And here's the part most people still don't understand:
Your BTC is used to mint cbBTC out of thin air, which gets pushed onto @Morpho. If Morpho gets hacked or the cbBTC disappears, Coinbase loses none of the collateralized BTC.
You do.
Coinbase keeps the real BTC.
So the borrower gets:
• Smart contract risk
• Morpho risk
• Wrapped BTC risk
...AND now gets to pay 2x to 3x higher interest for that risk.
How many people understood THAT when they clicked "Borrow"?
