MakerDAO works within the ethereum blockchain system. MakerDAO was developed as a medium for borrowing and saving on the ethereum blockchain system. Makerdao created a protocol that allows anyone with ETH and a MetaMask wallet to borrow money in the form of sabtablecoins called DAI. The MakerDAO token is called MKR. MKR token holders can control activity on the MakerDAO platform. The DAI is a decentralized and stable currency which is pegged to the United States dollar.

Compoud is a container that is in the ethereum blockchain system that allows anyone to take loans and facilitates other users to make loans, with the guarantee that their crypto assets will be locked in a protocol. The advantage of using this compound application is that loans can be repaid and crypto assets that are locked in a protocol can be withdrawn at any time according to our wishes.
