Polygon rejects proposal to bridge funds into Morpho to drive DeFi growth

Advertising

The Polygon community has decided against a proposal to deploy $1.3 billion in stablecoins from its Proof of Stake (PoS) bridge into yield-generating programs on Morpho, an Ethereum-based DeFi platform.

The announcement, made on Dec. 17 through Polygon’s official social media account, highlighted concerns raised by users regarding the lack of a consent mechanism and potential risks to the network.

Polygon stated:

“Given the community’s concern around the pre-PIP, it seems unlikely for this proposal to progress. However, it doesn’t mean innovative or even aggressive ideas shouldn’t be explored in the future.”

Security and ecosystem risks

The proposal, known as a preliminary proposal (pre-PIP), sought to utilize stablecoin reserves currently held in Polygon’s PoS bridge to incentivize liquidity and drive growth in the platform’s DeFi ecosystem.

Backed by Allez Labs, Morpho Association, and Yearn, the proposal claimed these idle funds could generate an estimated $70 million annually by being deployed into Morpho’s liquidity pools.

However, critics of the proposal cited significant risks to the stability of Polygon’s ecosystem. Former Polygon employee Pranav Maheshwari outlined concerns about the potential fallout of deploying bridge assets into high-risk protocols.

He noted that vulnerabilities in the underlying systems, such as hacks or financial instability, could jeopardize the value of assets secured by Polygon’s bridge.

Maheshwari wrote in a social media post:

“Any attack on the underlying protocol could destabilize the ecosystem, risking user assets and undermining confidence.”

He warned such scenarios could lead to liquidity crises akin to a “bank run.”

Disagreements

The proposal also triggered a dispute with DeFi protocol Aave, a key participant in Polygon’s ecosystem.

Aave-Chan Initiative founder Marc Zeller submitted a counter-proposal suggesting that Aave exit Polygon due to concerns over security risks tied to the initiative. His response noted that deploying funds into Morpho could benefit Aave’s competitors.

Polygon Labs responded with disappointment, pointing out that Aave had previously proposed a similar approach for deploying stablecoin reserves into yield-generating mechanisms. It also accused the Aave of acting in a “monopolistic” manner.

The decision to reject the proposal reflects the community’s prioritization of security and user trust over aggressive yield-generation strategies. While the idea has been shelved, Polygon acknowledged the need for creative approaches to manage its substantial stablecoin reserves effectively.

The platform’s PoS bridge remains one of the largest holders of on-chain stablecoins, presenting both an opportunity and a challenge for future governance discussions.
