A Comparison of Aave and Compound

By Kaiko

  • Aave and Compound are two of DeFi’s stalwarts: the two largest lending and borrowing protocols on Ethereum, each with a TVL over ten times larger than the third largest protocol.
  • Both protocols have functioned nearly flawlessly this year while a growing number of centralized entities have been failing in often spectacular fashion.
  • Aave has accumulated just $2.17mn of bad debt (most of which was generated in a recent, likely unprofitable, exploit covered here) relative to its $3.2bn TVL, while Compound has just $65,000 to its $1.5bn TVL.
