What is Compound?

Compound is a non-custodial lending protocol built on Ethereum. Compound was founded by Robert Leshner & Geoffrey Hayes and launched in 2017.

How does Compound work?

Lenders deposit funds into Compound and receive interest payments from borrowers (supply-side fees).

Who governs Compound?

COMP tokenholders own and govern the protocol. They currently take a cut of the total interest paid by borrowers (revenue). Compound’s investors include a16z, Paradigm, Polychain, etc.
