Decentralized Finance for crypto traders
About Yearn
Yearn Finance is a suite of products in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) that provides lending aggregation, yield generation, and insurance on the Ethereum blockchain. The protocol is maintained by various independent developers and is governed by YFI holders. The first Yearn product was a lending aggregator. Funds are shifted between dYdX, AAVE, and Compound automatically as interest rates change between these protocols. Users can deposit to these lending aggregator smart contracts via the Earn page. This product completely optimizes the interest accrual process for end-users to ensure they are obtaining the highest interest rates at all times among the platforms specified above. Capital pools that automatically generate yield based on opportunities present in the market. Vaults benefit users by socializing gas costs, automating the yield generation and rebalancing process, and automatically shifting capital as opportunities arise.

Aave
Aave is an open source and non-custodial liquidity protocol for earning interest on deposits and borrowing assets. Aave is a decentralized non-custodial money market protocol where users can participate as depositors or borrowers. Depositors provide liquidity to the market to earn a passive income, while borrowers are able to borrow in an overcollateralized (perpetually) or undercollateralized (one-block liquidity) fashion. At Aave, security is our top priority and we are constantly auditing and improving our protocol. The funds are stored in a non-custodial smart contract on the Ethereum blockchain. You control your wallet. Regulated and auditable by code. To ensure top notch security, Aave Protocol has had audits by trail of bits, open zeppelin, consensys diligence, certik, peckshield and certora. All audits are publicly available.

mStable
mStable is an open and decentralized protocol that unites stablecoins, lending and swapping into one standard. Autonomous and non-custodial stablecoin infrastructure. mStable combines lending income with trading fees to produce higher yielding assets. Smart contract security is mStable’s first priority. The mStable protocol was fully audited by Consensys Diligence and no critical bugs were found. mStable is governed by MTA holders who have staked their tokens to vote on proposals. mStable's governance goes through a process where consensus is reached in progressively concrete stages. Proposals and ideas are surfaced on the Discord or public forum, and are finalized by on-chain signalling by MTA holders. mStable is a collection of autonomous, descentralice, and non-custodial smart contracts. It is built on Ethereum. mStable assets (hereafter mAssets) represent some underlying value peg and are minted/redeemed on-chain via smart contracts.

Compound
Compound is an algorithmic, autonomous interest rate protocol built for developers, to unlock a universe of open financial applications. Higher returns, for you or your users. Balances held by your application can automatically earn the prevailing market rate. You can build interest directly into your product. Earn by the block. Expand functionality, without compromising liquidity. You can tokenize balances. Withdraw assets any time, or transfer balances to cold storage, other users, etc. Earn interest while assets are in cold storage. No trading fees, no slippage, no problem. Tapping into the Compound Protocol means you have access to a global liquidity pool per asset. Borrowing assets from the Compound Protocol has no time-duration; balances can be repayed at anytime, while interest is accumulating per block on the Ethereum network.

Cream
CREAM Finance is a DeFi ecosystem focused on providing lending, exchange, payment, and asset tokenization services. CREAM also operates a permissionless and open-source protocol so any other internet participant can be a part of the development of the network, instead of just using it or locking up funds in smart contracts for staking rewards. Financial inclusion is among CREAM'S primary goals. And the objective is to be able to achieve it without compromising the safety and security of each user and their assets. CREAM is established on the Ethereum blockchain, it can take advantage of smart contracts that can be used to run Ethereum Virtual Machines (EVM). Such a set-up also allows the CREAM project to have better composability than other DeFi projects. EVMs can also help community users develop their own decentralized applications (Dapps) on top of the network. However, there is very little detail on the community’s plans for such at the moment
