Morpho Protocol Leaderboard (Conservative)

Conservative DeFi Vaults Ranking

Overview

Uses Morpho Vaults V2 GraphQL data to fetch vaults on Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum, enforce strict exposure-asset address allowlists, apply conservative safety and liquidity filters, and rank by Net APY. Exposure enforcement relies on V2 adapter data: MetaMorphoAdapter (recursive vault exposure) and MorphoMarketV1Adapter (loan/collateral assets). No mock data is allowed.

Rules

Deposit Assets (Canonical):

• USDC, USDT, ETH, BTC
• Deposit asset is determined by vault.asset.address and mapped to symbols via the address allowlist.
• WETH -> ETH, WBTC/cbBTC -> BTC for deposit normalization.

Exposure Assets (Enforced by Address):

• BTC, ETH, WETH, WBTC, cbBTC, cbETH, wstETH, USDS, sUSDS, USDT, USDC
• Any adapter exposure address outside the allowlist excludes the vault.

Safety:

• whitelisted must be true
• warnings must be empty

Thresholds:

• Minimum Liquidity: $10,000,000 USD (use totalAssetsUsd, fallback to totalAssets / 10^decimals for USDC/USDT)
• Net APY: netApy > 0

Target Chains:

• Ethereum (Chain ID: 1)
• Base (Chain ID: 8453)
• Arbitrum (Chain ID: 42161)

Parameters

Execution Workflow

Step 1: Initialize

1. Map chain param to chain IDs:
   - ethereum -> [1]
   - base -> [8453]
   - arbitrum -> [42161]
   - all -> [1, 8453, 42161]
2. Set result limit (default: 10, max: 100)
3. If chain == all, query each chain separately and merge results
4. Enable pagination with `skip` and `first` for vault lists (default: first=500)
5. Load address allowlists for each chain (see above)
6. Conservative safety gate: whitelisted == true AND warnings.length == 0

Step 2: Fetch Data (Vaults V2)

Source: Morpho GraphQL API
Endpoint: https://api.morpho.org/graphql

GraphQL query (V2 list):

query VaultV2s($chainIds: [Int!], $first: Int!, $skip: Int!) {
  vaultV2s(
    where: { chainId_in: $chainIds }
    first: $first
    skip: $skip
    orderBy: TotalAssetsUsd
    orderDirection: Desc
  ) {
    items {
      address
      name
      symbol
      chain { id network }
      asset { address symbol decimals }
      totalAssets
      totalAssetsUsd
      netApy
      whitelisted
      warnings { type level }
    }
    pageInfo { countTotal count skip limit }
  }
}

Example variables:

{ "chainIds": [1, 8453, 42161], "first": 500, "skip": 0 }

Step 3: Pre-Filter

Normalization:
  - depositAddress := vault.asset.address (lowercase)
  - depositSymbol := map address -> symbol via allowlist
  - depositCanonical :=
      * WETH -> ETH
      * WBTC/cbBTC -> BTC
      * else -> same
  - liquidityUsd := totalAssetsUsd
  - if liquidityUsd is null AND depositCanonical in [USDC, USDT]:
      liquidityUsd := totalAssets / (10 ^ asset.decimals)

Filtering:
  - whitelisted == true
  - warnings.length == 0
  - liquidityUsd >= 10_000_000
  - netApy > 0
  - depositCanonical in [USDC, USDT, ETH, BTC]

Step 4: Fetch Exposures (Adapters)

Use adapter-specific fields to extract exposure assets. Any unknown adapter type or missing data => exclude vault.

GraphQL query (V2 exposure by address):

query VaultV2Exposure($address: String!, $chainId: Int!, $positionsFirst: Int!) {
  vaultV2ByAddress(address: $address, chainId: $chainId) {
    adapters {
      items {
        __typename
        type
        ... on MetaMorphoAdapter {
          metaMorpho {
            address
            asset { address symbol }
          }
        }
        ... on MorphoMarketV1Adapter {
          positions(first: $positionsFirst) {
            items {
              market {
                loanAsset { address symbol }
                collateralAsset { address symbol }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Exposure rules:

• MetaMorphoAdapter: recursively resolve exposures from the nested metaMorpho.address vault.
• If the nested vault cannot be queried, fall back to metaMorpho.asset.address and log a warning.
• MorphoMarketV1Adapter: collect loanAsset.address and collateralAsset.address from all positions.
• If positions length == positionsFirst, treat as possibly truncated => exclude vault (conservative).
• If any exposure address is not in the chain allowlist => exclude vault.

Step 5: Sort and Rank

Sorting:
  - Primary: netApy (descending)
  - Secondary: liquidityUsd (descending)
Take:
  - Top N = limit

Step 6: Build Vault Link

link := https://app.morpho.org/{network}/vault/{address}
# network comes from chain.network; lowercase it for URL safety

Step 7: Reference Script (Python)

# Recommended fast/stable defaults:
# CHAIN=all LIMIT=10 FIRST=500 POSITIONS_FIRST=50 REQUEST_DELAY_MS=100
python scripts/morpho_v2_conservative_leaderboard.py

Error Handling

Notes

• Exposure assets are enforced via V2 adapters. MorphoMarketV1Adapter uses loan/collateral asset addresses, MetaMorphoAdapter is resolved recursively via nested vault adapters.
• If a MetaMorpho nested vault cannot be queried, the script falls back to the nested vault asset address with a warning.
• Vault list queries auto-downgrade page size on 5xx responses to improve stability.
• Set REQUEST_DELAY_MS to throttle requests if 5xx persists.
• netApy is a decimal rate; multiply by 100 for percentage output.
• Prefer totalAssetsUsd; fallback to totalAssets / 10^decimals for USDC/USDT only.
• ETH/BTC are represented via their wrapped tokens (WETH/WBTC/cbBTC) in address-based filters.
• Arbitrum uses the USD₮0 (USDT) token contract address for USDT allowlisting.
• USDS/sUSDS are only included for Ethereum and Base (per Sky deployments tracker).
• Exposure query failures are logged and treated as unknown, which excludes the vault.
