About Compound

COMP is the governance token of the Compound protocol, enabling users to participate in the decision-making process of the platform. Its uses include voting on proposals, earning rewards, and facilitating the decentralised management of the protocol. Launched in 2020 by Compound Labs, COMP plays a crucial role in shaping the protocol’s future through community-driven governance.
The primary purpose of the COMP token is to enable governance over the Compound protocol. Specific uses include: - Proposal creation: Holders with at least 1% of the total COMP supply can propose changes to the protocol, such as adding new collateral types, adjusting market parameters, or updating the protocol's code. - Delegation and voting: COMP holders can delegate their voting power to others or vote directly on proposals. This ensures even passive holders can participate in governance indirectly. - Ecosystem rewards: COMP is distributed as an incentive to users who interact with the Compound protocol, whether by supplying or borrowing assets. This encourages participation and maintains liquidity in the system. - Reputation and signalling: Holding COMP signifies involvement in the governance of one of DeFi's leading protocols, and large COMP holders often influence key decisions in the DeFi ecosystem.
The COMP token was introduced in June 2020 by Compound Labs, the company behind the Compound protocol. Compound Labs was founded in 2018 by Robert Leshner and Geoffrey Hayes. While the protocol itself was developed and initially managed by Compound Labs, the introduction of COMP facilitated the transition to a decentralised governance model, reducing the role of the founding team over time. COMP was designed to distribute control of the protocol to its users and stakeholders, ensuring the Compound ecosystem remains decentralised and community-driven. As of its launch, Compound Labs retained a portion of COMP tokens to incentivise developers and fund further research and development.

Buy Power Ledger Before These Three Energy Mandates Hit

The European Commission's RED III update must be passed into law by EU member states by mid-2026, requiring per megawatt-hour level traceability of all renewable energy certificates. Australia's new RET framework starts January 2027 and will require digitally verifiable evidence of all large-scale generation certificates. The EU CBAM needs to be fully operational by 2026 and will require auditable supply-chain energy use data from importers.

How to Buy Illuvium Without Overpaying on Gas Fees

Illuvium is currently priced at $4.30 per ILV, but how much you actually pay depends entirely on your purchase strategy. Ethereum gas fees, DEX slippage, and exchange withdrawal costs can add 10-15% to your total trade cost if you're not buying wisely. This guide breaks down the real all-in cost of acquiring ILV and shows you how to minimize every layer of fees.

Compound Staking Mechanics and Yield Strategies Decoded

Compound DAO approved proposals 553 and 554, setting COMP borrow and supply incentives to 0 for ten Comets on Ethereum, Linea, OP Mainnet, and Unichain on March 26th. While the protocol maintains $1.389 billion in TVL and $17.72 million in annualized fees, how users farm yield through Compound has fundamentally shifted. Every strategy depending on COMP token rewards now requires complete reevaluation.
