The handoff was almost mechanical
After 16 of Clearstar's 17 deposits of $100K or more, Steakhouse's vaults pulled about as much back out within 25 minutes
Steakhouse never lowered its caps, so it looks like rates doing the work, not a decision to leave
Who actually funds @coinbase's Solana-backed loans?
>> May to July: @SteakhouseFi's High Yield vaults
>> July 27th: @ClearstarLabs starts lending
>> today: Clearstar supplies 86% of SOL lending and 88% of JitoSOL
All on @Morpho, all visible onchain
Excellent data @andrewhong5297
We've had some eyes on the fixed-rate looping segment for our upcoming RWAs 👀

Fixed rate lending gaining quick steam among Ethena and Maple
A lot's changed in the few days since our CoinDesk article...
xitter.cf/andrewhong5297/status/…
Big thesis of @O2Ocapital's is fixed-rate looping will be one of the largest levers for RWA growth in DeFi
It's largely been untapped (99% of onchain rates are variable) but the growth is undeniable: @Morpho Midnight, @TenorFinance, @formation_so and @kamino Fixed Rates
Ability to match a 6-month 10% RWA against a 6-month 6% fixed loan and capture that spread is a no-brainer versus dealing with spiking variable rates
Institutional Capital will move into this lane fast.

Full October report: o2ocapital.com/research/rwa-…
Vaults went from ~$3B to ~$20B in under two years, mostly on @Morpho
>> most of it still earns 4% to 6% on crypto lending
>> our forecast: $22B to $28B by year end
>> the path to $100B runs through real-world yield
Receivables, credit and income ETFs are barely onchain yet 🧵

If $35B of tokenized RWAs is sitting unused in DeFi, who puts it to work?

🧵2/3
The products built for DeFi from day one are the ones getting used.
@maplefinance syrupUSDC alone has ~$1B working in DeFi, about a quarter of the total.
Distribution and liquidity is the product. Tokenizing a fund is only the first step
🧵 1/3
Tokenized isn't the same as liquid.
>> @BlackRock BUIDL: $2.8B onchain, $18M working in DeFi
>> @circle USYC: $2.6B onchain, $32M in DeFi
>> @FTDA_US BENJI: $1.7B onchain, $0 in DeFi
Only $4B of the $39B in tokenized RWAs is put to work in DeFi per @RWA_xyz & @DefiLlama
Congrats @FissionXYZ on the $10M raise led by @PanteraCapital. Selling out of a tokenized fund in minutes instead of waiting months on a redemption window is a huge deal for anyone allocating to private credit onchain with any real size. Well deserved
Full October report on why vaults need yield that doesn't depend on crypto to get from $20B to $100B:

Crypto's biggest Earn programs need subsidies to compete.
>> @coinbase High Yield USDC: 3.2% organic + 2.65% Coinbase-funded
>> @RobinhoodApp Earn: ~5% organic + ~2% Robinhood-funded
Offchain, @JPMorganAM $JEPI and $JEPQ pay 8% to 11% with no subsidy. None of it is onchain yet
@coinbase lends customers up to $100K $USDC against $SOL on @Morpho. Our 2nd vault brief follows the money onchain to a $34M vault on @base:
- @ClearstarLabs supplies ~80% of the $USDC in the $SOL market
- 217 liquidations, 0 bad debt
Full brief below:
Our October 2026 RWA Vaults report is LIVE
With $20B in TVL, vaults are becoming the default wrapper for onchain asset management, yet most of that capital sits in crypto strategies paying 4-6%, leaving plenty of room to run for yield-generating RWAs >>
One $500M+ @SteakhouseFi vault on @Morpho, two rates:
>> Through @RobinhoodApp: about 7%
>> Directly onchain: under 4% today
