Odaily News: Decentralized lending protocol Compound Finance has completed a leadership overhaul and approved a record $52 million budget. The protocol's total value locked has fallen from a peak of $12 billion in 2021 to $1.2 billion, and it is now seeking to restore growth.
Compound Finance is pivoting to serve institutional clients, developing real-world asset products, partner integration solutions, and credit infrastructure to meet the compliance and technical standards of traditional finance.
Industry executives say Compound Finance's new leadership team and substantial budget align with the broader shift within the decentralized finance sector toward serving financial institutions. The sector's overall assets had previously declined due to market weakness and security breach incidents. (CoinDesk)
