Abstract
Decentralised finance (DeFi) is a decentralised peer-to-peer system based on blockchain technology that facilitates lending and borrowing through smart contract code and lending protocols replacing traditional financial activities that typically require trusted intermediaries such as brokers or banks. In this essay, the four factors of collateral presentation, borrowing rate, lending relationship, and subject of legal connection are compared between decentralized and centralized financial lending models. This paper illustrates the entire DeFi lending model using Compound as a real-world example. The borrowing interest rate is decided in real time by Compound's smart contract according to the supply and demand of funds in the market, so the borrower does not need to bargain with the lender. The smart contract will automatically match the money market. Additionally introduced are the DeFi innovation's concept and features. The paper concludes by discussing the advantages of DeFi lending and borrowing, the hazards associated with doing so, and providing an outlook on the future path of DeFi research.
