#ApollotoBuy90MMORPHOin4Years
✨Apollo Global Management (Apollo), a giant alternative asset management company managing approximately $900 billion (or $938 billion according to some sources) in assets, has signed a strategic collaboration agreement with Morpho (a DeFi lending protocol). This agreement was officially announced by the Morpho Association on February 13, 2026. Details are as follows:
🔹Token Purchase Commitment: Apollo or its affiliates will be able to purchase a total of 90 million MORPHO tokens over 48 months (4 years). This is a maximum cap and will not be exceeded.
🔹Purchase Methods: Purchases will be made through open-market purchases, OTC (over-the-counter) transactions, and other contractual arrangements.
🔹Restrictions: Transfer and trading restrictions will be applied, meaning sudden large-scale sales or manipulation will be prevented. The total ownership limit is 90 million tokens. 🔹Potential Value: Based on the MORPHO price at the time of the announcement (approximately between $1.19 and $1.25), this commitment is worth around $107–$112.5 million. However, the actual value will change over the next four years depending on market conditions (due to price fluctuations).
🔹Purpose and Collaboration: Apollo and Morpho will jointly support and develop on-chain lending markets on the Morpho protocol. This means Apollo will combine its traditional finance expertise with Morpho's innovative peer-to-peer lending architecture. Apollo will also gain the right to participate in protocol governance (influence in voting on risk parameters, fee structures, etc.) thanks to MORPHO tokens.
🔹Market Impact: Following the announcement of the agreement, the MORPHO token price increased by approximately 10–17% in a short time (e.g., reaching levels of $1.25). This is seen as one of the biggest examples of institutional entry into DeFi, and along with other institutional moves like BlackRock/Uniswap, it's boosting confidence in DeFi.
✨This is a long-term, controlled commitment rather than a "buy." It's structured to minimize the risk of a sudden dump. A landmark step in TradFi's (traditional finance) integration into DeFi.
