## What happened

Morpho announced that Morpho Blue is live on Arc, with variable-rate lending and borrowing available through its application and live distribution through Arc EarnKit, Pulsar Money Earn, and SafePal Earn.

## What changed

Morpho Blue now has a live deployment on a new chain and additional advisor-accessible distribution paths, expanding the protocol's deployment, asset, curator, chain, and integration diligence perimeter.

## What did not change

The launch does not make Arc markets, vaults, curators, assets, or integrations Ketju-approved. Announced future products, including Circle Mint borrowing and Morpho Midnight on Arc, are not treated as live.

## Confirmed

- Morpho's official notice says Morpho Blue is live on Arc as of September 16, 2026.
- The notice says users can access variable-rate earning and borrowing on Arc through app.morpho.org.
- The notice identifies live USDC and EURC vaults in Pulsar Money Earn curated by Steakhouse Financial and a SafePal Earn integration.
- Digital Asset Backed Borrow on Circle Mint, additional distribution partners, and Morpho Midnight on Arc are described as forthcoming rather than live.

## Still open

- The deployed contract addresses and verification status for the Arc deployment were not provided in the cached launch notice.
- Market-level collateral, oracle, liquidation, curator, cap, and liquidity configurations require separate review.
- The custody and suitability characteristics of each distribution integration remain unreviewed.

## What it means for an advisor

- Open a deployment-specific review before extending any existing Morpho Blue approval or research conclusion to Arc.
- Keep announced future integrations outside the approved perimeter until live operation and operative controls are independently evidenced.

## Previous interpretation

Existing Morpho Blue research did not include the newly live Arc deployment or its distribution integrations.
