Morpho: Coinbase Developer Platform launches Borrow through Morpho Blue on Base - 22 Sep 2026

Coinbase Developer Platform introduces Borrow, letting apps open and manage crypto-backed USDC loan positions through CDP APIs. The feature is available for CDP Smart account users on Base Mainnet through Morpho Blue, supporting cbBTC, cbXRP, SOL and cbETH pairs against USDC.Morpho Blue acts as the exclusive lending layer for the feature, so borrow demand from third-party apps built on the Developer Platform routes directly into Morpho markets on Base. This gives Morpho a distribution channel through Coinbase's developer ecosystem without requiring those apps to integrate lending protocols individually.Actual volume depends on how many developers adopt the API and how much borrowing activity follows, so market repricing around the announcement can run ahead of measured usage on Morpho markets.Introducing Borrow with Wallets, a simple way to bring crypto-backed USDC loans directly into your app.Browse products, open collateralized positions, and manage them over time.
