Compound Finance is a decentralized protocol for lending and borrowing. Compound utilizes algorithmic formulas to determine rates. User can deposit assets and earn interest or borrow assets at interest.

Users can deposit assets into Compound; users receive cTokens which represent their deposit to the protocol. Deposits have a collateral factor and users can borrow against their deposits.

When a position becomes undercollateralized that position's collateral assets can be liquidated at a slight discount to pay back the debt. Positions on Compound can be partially liquidated, liquidation ends once the user's position becomes fully collateralized.

Assets deposited into Compound Finance have a Collateral Factor. The Collateral factor is the percentage of value that can be borrowed against a particular asset. Collateral Factor Collateral Factor is the percentage a user can borrow against a particular asset.

Compound automatically shifts the asset panels if you supply or borrow an asset, to circumvent this utilize a strategy like 'Leverage' or 'Deposit and Borrow' to supply and borrow the same asset.
