Compound Based Lending & Borrowing Modules

At the heart of Peridot lies a customized implementation of Compound V2, one of the most trusted and audited lending protocols in the Ethereum ecosystem.

Why Compound V2?

  • Battle-tested and widely adopted

  • Audited by top-tier security firms

  • Extensible for cross-chain logic

Custom Enhancements for Peridot

We’ve adapted Compound V2's modules to:

  • Support cross-chain deposits and borrows

  • Operate centralized vaults for global accounting

  • Interface with Wormhole payload messages from Spoke chains

  • Include support for custom oracles (Pyth & Witnet)

These enhancements allow the lending model to operate efficiently across chains without duplicating core logic.

By extending Compounds Architecture instead of building from scratch, Peridot delivers security, reliability, and speed to market.
