This has caused Compound to soak up over 80 percent of BAT\u2019s liquid supply, reducing the amount borrowed from other protocols such as UADT, WBTC, and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/ethereum\/\">ETH<\/a>. A patch implemented on Jun. 27 managed to resolve the issue.<\/p>\n<h2>High-interest rates led to 80% of BAT to end up in Compound<\/h2>\n<p>Decentralized liquidity provider <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/compound\/\">Compound<\/a> has seen its popularity increase with the launch of yield farming, reaching $1 billion in total supply and over $383 million in total borrows. However, the protocol\u2019s massive success brought some of its problems to light, showing that it over-incentivized certain behavior on the platform.<\/p>\n<p>The current <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/compound\/\">COMP<\/a> distribution system, introduced in proposal no. 10, has two major issues, the first and less important one being a slight issue with flash loans. The second, more major problem, involves the protocol incentivizing users to lend to whichever money market has the highest interest rate.<\/p>\n<p>While this wouldn\u2019t be a problem if the interest rates across various markets remained relatively the same, a huge discrepancy arose when the interest rates for lending the <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/basic-attention-token\/\">Basic Attention Token<\/a> (BAT) jumped to the top of the board.<\/p>\n<p>The huge increase in new users meant that the majority of them naturally gravitated towards BAT, which led to Compound soaking up over 80 percent of BAT\u2019s liquid supply.<\/p>\n<p>According to data from DeFi Rate, $319 million worth of BAT out of the $391 million in liquid supply is currently locked in Compound.<\/p>\n<h2>New COMP distribution patch fixing issues with high-interest rates<\/h2>\n<p>To mitigate this issue, which led to other cryptocurrencies being drastically less represented in yield farming, a new patch was proposed. The <a href=\"https:\/\/compound.comradery.io\/post\/1769\">proposal<\/a>, which is the 11th patch issued on Compound, was introduced by Compound Labs CTO Geoffrey Hayes and it addresses both of the above-mentioned problems.<\/p>\n<p>Hayes\u2019 proposal aims to address the risky yield farming by removing the \u201cinterest accrued\u201d metric that\u2019s used to allocate COMP tokens across various markets on the platform. Instead of using the accrued interest, the protocol will allocate COMP to markets proportional to the users\u2019 demand for borrowing each asset. This, it explained in the official proposal, should remove the incentive to push markets into \u201cextreme levels\u201d of utilization and prevent yield farmers from gathering in a single market, as is currently the case with BAT.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1412px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/bnjDUmBQj6tkc9SWZx-RKq7KbJWcQec8ycmvmM92H9CQdO2_0aVhDskp_noy0cl5kYxnjF0rKYzSuAV871Y7AHKhtZsCrg1M7dfllSfpWOw65X3rIkrVlnPliaCdaDssZKjQN-EZ\" alt=\"Chart showing the economics of COMP distribution before and immediately after the patch\" width=\"1412\" height=\"498\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chart showing the economics of COMP distribution before and immediately after the patch. <i>(Source: <\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/compound.comradery.io\/post\/1769\"><i>Compound<\/i><\/a><i>)<\/i><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The patch will affect all borrowers as they\u2019ll receive the same amount of COMP no matter how high the interest rate they\u2019re borrowing at is.
