Protocols are applications. Like everything in DeFi, they are decentralized, so you may also see them referred to as “dApps.” A protocol (or dApp) is a set of smart contracts that enable investors to perform financial transactions like lending, borrowing, or trading tokens. Each protocol has unique rules, characteristics, user benefits, and risks.
