Zootosis: The DeFi Rewards Adventure Begins
Zootosis is now live - a bold new event from Morph and Mitosis designed to reward early participants, deepen liquidity, and offer real token incentives to those helping shape the next chapter of onchain finance.
What is Zootosis?
Zootosis is an onchain yield event powered by Mitosis, built to grow sustainable, long-term liquidity within the Morph ecosystem. It marks the debut of Matrix Vaults on Morph - designed to let users access dual rewards with full flexibility.
By depositing into Matrix Vaults, users receive points called Zoots. These points determine your share of the total Morph and Mitosis token rewards. No lockups are required, but the longer you stay, the more Zoots you receive.
How It Works
- Deposit supported assets into Matrix Vaults on Morph
- Receive maAssets - tokenized vault positions
- Receive Zoots based on amount, asset type, and duration
You can withdraw anytime, but early exits reduce your Zoots. The system is flexible and rewards commitment.
Supported Assets
Zootosis supports a wide range of assets with fixed TVL caps to ensure fair reward distribution.
- Main assets: WETH, WBTC, USDC, USDT
- Alt assets coming soon: mphETH, weETH, STONE, sUSDe, and more
- Wildcard asset: Chosen via community vote
Depositing any supported asset rewards you with Zoots - the points that determine your share of tokens.
What Are Zoots?
Zoots are points that reflect your contribution to the Zootosis event. They're calculated based on:
- Asset category (main vs secondary)
- Amount deposited
- Liquidity duration
- Eligible multipliers (NFTs, early participation, etc.)
The more Zoots you accumulate, the more rewards you receive.
Additional multipliers are available for:
- Early participants (first-week deposits get a 1.02x bonus)
- NFT holders (Morse, Morphies, etc.)
- Long-term holders via HODL Boost
- Expedition tier status and other criteria
Two Phases of Zootosis
- Phase 1: Deposit into Matrix Vaults and begin receiving Zoots. Your maAssets can be held passively or prepped for strategies.
- Phase 2: Deploy your maAssets into Morph-native strategies like AMMs, lending markets, and more. Strategy-specific maAssets will continue accessing Zoots and unlock more potential yield.
Zootosis is built to reward both passive holders and active participants.
Withdrawal Logic
There are no forced lockups, but exiting early reduces your Zoots:
- Withdraw within 7 days = 90% Zoots forfeited
- The forfeiture percentage of Zoots decays linearly over 270 days
- Full 270-day hold = no penalty
All forfeited Zoots are redistributed to remaining participants.
Why Join Zootosis?
Zootosis is more than just a campaign - it's a realignment of how liquidity incentives should work.
- No lockups, but powerful incentives to stay
- Real rewards in Morph and Mitosis tokens
- NFT and early-user multipliers
It’s the beginning of a new kind of DeFi experience on Morph - one where aligned incentives and long-term rewards finally meet.
