COMP Protocol
Compound, a leading project in the DeFi market, uses cryptocurrencies to create financial products without intermediaries, giving users more control over their money. It pioneered the concept of “liquidity mining,” which allows users to earn interest and COMP tokens on their deposited crypto assets.
Other cryptocurrency projects have followed suit by introducing similar tokens for liquidity farming. Compound utilizes Ethereum’s smart contracts to replace intermediaries with computer programs.

To supply or lend crypto assets on Compound, users deposit them into the protocol and receive tokens in return. These tokens accrue interest for the user. Users can also use their deposited assets as collateral to borrow from Compound, using an over-collateralization model to ensure that no one can borrow more than what is collateralized.
COMP Price History
Compound distributes 42% of its 10 million total tokens through the protocol to users at 2,312 COMPs per day until 2024. The remaining tokens are allocated as follows:
- 24% to shareholders of Compound Labs
- 22% to the Compound founders and staff
- 8% to participants in the project’s governance
- 4% to future Compound staff members
The token, COMP, is a “governance token,” allowing holders to vote on significant changes to the protocol. After its launch in June 2020, COMP’s price peaked at $337.05 and fluctuated between $80 and $250 for the rest of the year. In May 2021, COMP reached its all-time high of $854.48 during a crypto-wide bull run before quickly falling to $342.96 on May 22 and hitting a low of $221.85 on June 20, 2021.
Since then, the price has been hovering between $200 and $500, with a peak of $508.91 in September 2021. The price has since been on a bearish move until the end of last year.
