What is Compound (COMP)?
Compound is a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol that allows users to earn interest on their cryptocurrency holdings and borrow assets without the need for a central authority. Launched in 2018 by Geoffrey Hayes and Robert Leshner, the protocol is built on the Ethereum blockchain and has quickly become one of the most popular DeFi platforms. At the moment, the total value locked of Compound is close to $1.6 billion, and the highest TVL at one time was close to $10 billion.
How Compound (COMP) Works
Compound allows users to lend and borrow cryptocurrency without intermediaries, enabling greater efficiency and flexibility than traditional financial systems. Users can earn interest by supplying digital assets to the platform, and can also borrow assets by depositing collateral in the form of other cryptocurrencies. Interest rates are determined by supply and demand, with rates varying depending on the asset being lent or borrowed.
One of the unique features of Compound is the use of algorithmic interest rates, which adjust in real-time based on market conditions. This allows the platform to maintain a balance between supply and demand, ensuring that interest rates remain stable and liquidity is maintained.
COMP is the native token of the Compound protocol, and is used for governance and to incentivize users to contribute to the platform. Users who supply or borrow assets on Compound are rewarded with COMP tokens, which can be used to vote on proposals for changes to the protocol. This ensures that the community has a say in the development of the platform and helps to maintain its decentralization.
How Many Compound (COMP) Tokens Are in Circulation?
There is a total supply of 10 million COMP tokens, with around 7.3 million currently in circulation.

Located in Southeastern Europe and forming part of the Balkans is Montenegro, a nation that shares its borders with Serbia to the northeast, Croatia to the northwest, Bosnia and Herzegovina to the north, Kosovo to the east, Albania to the southeast, and the scenic Adriatic Sea to the west. Its coastline for the latter runs a whopping 293.5 kilometers long, with its capital city Podgorica located inland to the east. The city spans 13,812 square kilometers and is home to around 30% of Montenegro’s overall population of 621,000. There, you’ll find plenty of culturally-rich museums and art galleries, including the city’s main museum and the Center for Modern Art.
Due to the diversity of its landscapes which stretch from the coast of the Adriatic Sea to the mountain ranges of Durmitor, Bjelasica, Sinjajevina, Prokletije, Komovi, and more, the country attracts approximately 1.3 million tourists every year. Interestingly, more than 60% of the nation sits at an altitude of 1000 meters above sea level or more, meaning you’ll be able to ski up in the mountains and swim in the sea on the same day during mid-season changes. There are also four national parks, with Durmitor National Park earning the title of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Currently in the process of joining the European Union, Montenegro has adopted the Euro (EUR) as its official currency, and with direct support from Bitget, you can purchase Compound(COMP) in just a matter of minutes, no matter where you are in the country, from Podgorica to Nikšić to Herceg Novi.
