Compound allows you to borrow and lend on Ronin. That means you’ll be able to earn yield by lending idle tokens, or unlock liquidity by borrowing against them. This introduces new ways to earn rewards and use your tokens.
Earlier this week, a governance proposal passed to initialize wETH Compound markets on Ronin. Voter turnout was 2x to 4x higher than other chains, and 99.99% of votes were cast in favor of deployment. This is a positive sign that DeFi has room to grow on Ronin – and it’s just the beginning. RON and USDC votes are also starting soon, and you can show your support here once the votes go live.

About Compound

Founded in 2017 by Robert Leshner & Geoffrey Hayes, it launched on Ethereum’s mainnet in 2018 and now supports dynamic interest rates as well as collateral options including $ETH, $WBTC, $LINK, $UNI, & $COMP.
