Odaily News: Decentralized lending protocol Compound Finance has completed a leadership overhaul and approved a record $52 million budget. The protocol's total value locked has fallen from a peak of $12 billion in 2021 to $1.2 billion, and it is now seeking to restore growth. Compound Finance is pivoting to serve institutional clients, developing real-world asset products, partner integration solutions, and credit infrastructure to meet the compliance and technical standards of traditional finance.
