Gauntlet Expands Yield Strategies Through Bitget’s Morph Ecosystem

According to a recent LinkedIn post from Gauntlet, the firm has introduced two new yield strategies on Morph, an Ethereum Layer 2 network within the Bitget ecosystem. The post indicates these vaults are accessible to more than 125 million users through Bitget and Bitget Wallet, potentially expanding Gauntlet’s reach in retail and institutional crypto markets.

The company’s LinkedIn post highlights the Gauntlet USDC Prime vault, described as a Morpho-based strategy focused on risk‑adjusted yield from large market cap, high‑liquidity collateral, initially lending only against bgBTC. A second product, bgBTC Earn, is presented as a Gauntlet Aera vault that seeks to generate yield on Bitcoin by deploying bgBTC across Morpho markets and vaults.

According to the post, all parameters for these strategies — including risk configuration, market allocation, and exposure limits — are tuned by Gauntlet’s proprietary risk engine. This emphasis on quantitative risk optimization suggests an attempt to differentiate Gauntlet’s offerings from generic yield products, which may be relevant to investors assessing the firm’s competitive positioning in the on‑chain asset management segment.

The LinkedIn post further notes that this is Gauntlet’s first deployment on Morph and frames it as the beginning of a broader collaboration with the Bitget ecosystem, with additional vaults and strategies anticipated. For investors, this expansion into Bitget’s distribution channels could support user growth, fee revenue, and data scale for Gauntlet’s risk platform, while also signaling deeper integration into the emerging Ethereum L2 infrastructure landscape.
