Information about the Compound (COMP)

The Compound price has tracked the value of COMP since 2020—the governance token of one of the most important protocols in the DeFi sector. On the Ethereum-based platform, users (outside the BISON app) can lend out crypto assets for interest or deposit them as collateral to borrow funds. Here, you’ll learn how the Compound price has developed over the years, what factors influence it, and what the outlook for COMP looks like.

Key facts about the Compound price

  • Compound (COMP) is one of the oldest and most important DeFi protocols. On the Ethereum blockchain, it allows users (outside the BISON app) to lend out crypto assets and earn interest.
  • The Compound price reflects the performance of the COMP governance token. Holders can vote on all major protocol changes, and the total supply is capped at ten million COMP.
  • Alongside general crypto market dynamics, key drivers of the Compound price include the development of total value locked (TVL), governance decisions, and protocol upgrades.
    Compound reached its all-time high in May 2021 at around USD 910 and its all-time low in June 2023 at around USD 24. As of early September 2025, the market capitalization is around USD 420 million.
  • The future of Compound will largely depend on its ability to remain competitive against other DeFi protocols such as Aave and to successfully expand onto Layer-2 blockchains.

How is the Compound price determined?

Behind the COMP token lies an ecosystem that plays a crucial role in DeFi. Like any cryptocurrency, the Compound price is primarily determined by supply and demand. Several core factors shape this dynamic:

  • Limited supply: Like Bitcoin, Compound has a fixed cap—the maximum supply is ten million COMP.
  • Distribution: A large portion of the coins (over 42%) has been gradually distributed as incentives to protocol users who supplied or borrowed assets. This process steadily increases the circulating supply toward the maximum cap. Currently, about 9.45 million COMP are in circulation.
  • Governance power: The key driver of COMP’s value is its function as a governance token. Holders can vote on important changes—such as which crypto assets are accepted as collateral, how interest rate models are adjusted, or how protocol reserves are used.

What drives the Compound price?

While tokenomics define the fundamental framework, the Compound price reacts strongly to overall bullish and bearish trends in the crypto market as well as to project-specific events:

  • Total Value Locked (TVL): TVL represents the total value of assets deposited in the protocol. Rising TVL typically has a positive effect on the Compound price.
  • Governance decisions: Proposals voted on through the Compound DAO often have direct effects on the COMP chart. Negative news also leaves its mark, as seen in September 2021 when a faulty governance proposal (Proposal 062) mistakenly distributed over USD 90 million in rewards—triggering a 13% price drop within hours.
  • Protocol upgrades: New protocol versions are usually received positively. The launch of Compound III (also known as “Comet”) in August 2022, for example, lifted the COMP price by about 25% within a few weeks.

Since Compound is deeply tied to DeFi, sentiment in this sector heavily influences its price development. Hacks at other DeFi protocols, for instance, tend to have a negative effect, while positive news boosts COMP. The best example is the “DeFi Summer” of 2020, when the sector exploded into public awareness and COMP saw strong gains as a result.

Price history: Key moments in COMP’s price development

  1. September 2025: Current price
    After a longer consolidation phase and a 50% price drop at the beginning of 2025, the Compound price at the start of September is trading in a relatively narrow range between USD 41 and USD 44, around 10% above its year’s lows.

  2. 2023 and 2024: Gradual recovery with few outliers
    After bottoming out during the crypto winter, COMP slowly but steadily recovered over the next two years. Unusually for a cryptocurrency, volatility during this period was relatively low. With only a few exceptions (its all-time low at USD 24 in June 2023, highs of USD 90 in March 2024 and USD 100 in December 2024), the price generally moved within a range of roughly USD 40 to USD 70.

  3. 2022: Crypto winter despite Compound III
    The broader bear market hit the entire DeFi sector hard, and the Compound price was no exception. From around USD 200 at the start of the year—including a brief recovery attempt toward USD 170 in April—COMP fell below USD 40 by year-end. The launch of Compound III in August had a positive impact, but the effect was not sustainable.

  4. 2021: Uptrend to all-time high
    Fueled by the broader crypto bull market, the Compound price climbed from the protocol’s launch in June of the previous year to its still-valid all-time high of around USD 910 in May 2021. Later that year, however, the price retreated sharply—driven in part by the faulty governance proposal 062 in September, which led to unintended distributions.

  5. 2020: Major price surge during the “DeFi Summer”
    Although the Compound protocol had existed since 2018, the COMP token first began trading in June 2020. Its launch was one of the catalysts for the “DeFi Summer,” which in turn drove the Compound price higher. The then-novel concept of rewarding users with governance tokens for interacting with the protocol (“liquidity mining”) created hype that pushed COMP from USD 90 to over USD 370.

Outlook for Compound

Forecasts for the Compound price depend largely on the broader DeFi market. As one of the oldest and most established DeFi protocols, Compound benefits from its reputation—but also faces pressure to innovate, particularly against competitors such as Aave.

A potential positive catalyst for COMP is the partnership launched in March 2025 with Morpho and Gauntlet, aimed at creating new and optimized lending markets (vaults) on Polygon.
