## Summary

Allocate up to 55,605.10 MORPHO tokens for rewards on Optimism Mainnet.

## Detail

Optimism has awarded a 1.5M OP growth grant to the Morpho DAO. We propose a partial match (40% of total) based on a one week TWAP of MORPHO and OP tokens.

Calculations:

1.5M OP one week TWAP ~= $212,689.50  
$212,689.50 x 0.4 ~= $85,075.80  
MORPHO one week TWAP ~= $1.53  
Matching proposed == $85,075.80 / $1.53 == 55,605.10 MORPHO tokens

These rewards will initially be distributed on either Base or Ethereum, as the MORPHO token is not currently deployed natively on Optimism mainnet. A native deployment may be considered and proposed in a future DAO vote. Distribution will be governed under the optimistic rewards framework, with a high level strategy of growing total USDC deposits and activating relevant new collateral asset markets.
