How to Buy Compound (COMP) - A Step-by-Step Guide

It doesn't matter if you are in Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, or anywhere in between, Ndax gives you all the tools and support to buy and sell Compound in Canada.

Why buy COMP?

Compound was created for the purpose of creating a trustless, decentralized lending platform. Anyone who deposits supported ETH tokens on Compound can either earn interest on their deposit or use it as collateral for taking out a loan. COMP, Compounds native token, is distributed as a reward to those using the platform.

COMP holders can then propose changes to the protocol as well as vote on proposals made from others, all without any involvement from the Compound team. Buying COMP allows the owner to participate in this governance and it can be bought without loaning or borrowing on the platform itself.

Additionally, COMP has a maximum supply of 10 million tokens. As use of the platform increases, and adoption of DeFi continues to grow, investors are buying COMP for exposure to lending protocols and for the belief that COMP’s value will increase due to its fixed supply and growing utilization.
