Supply & Demand Curve

How pool utilization creates the spread that Morpho captures. Higher utilization means higher borrow rates but also a narrower spread - the P2P improvement is most valuable at moderate utilization.

Understanding the P2P Index Cursor

0%
Favor Lenders

P2P rate = pool borrow rate. Lenders get max improvement, borrowers get pool rate.

50%
Default (Midpoint)

P2P rate = midpoint of supply and borrow. Both sides benefit equally.
