We're blockchain enthusiasts working together in San Francisco, California with a mission to make Ethereum assets more efficient and productive. Compound is an open-source protocol for algorithmic, efficient Money Markets on the Ethereum blockchain. Seamlessly earn interest or borrow ERC-20 tokens without managing an order book. The majority of cryptocurrencies sit idle on exchanges and in wallets, yielding no interest. At Compound, we’re creating interest rate markets to unlock the value of these assets, empowering investors with new opportunities to profit.

We’re building an open, transparent, frictionless protocol using smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain. Our goal: to create financial infrastructure that is used for the next hundred years. The Compound Protocol is designed with developers in mind; for the first time, applications can easily monetize or borrow tokens. We've designed the Compound Wallet as a functional interface to the protocol; we're excited to see what you come up with.
