The DeFi Saver extension is now live on the Compound app
DeFi saver is an all-in-one dashboard to create, manage and track positions with automatic liquidation protection and effective management options for only the most trusted DeFi protocols.
Thanks to Compound’s newly released extension framework, DeFi Saver is now available as an extension in the Compound app. The two teams worked together to bring DeFi Saver’s advanced and automated features to Compound v3 users directly within the Compound application. Features like 1-tx position rebalancing and automated liquidation protection are now available to users.
With the DeFi Saver extension, Compound users can rely on the characteristic Boost and Repay options for rebalancing 1-tx positions, which can come in handy in the event of market crashes, for example, when a user partially unwinds (or ” liquidate yourself”) wants position to save it from sinking. Additionally, all users can now consider automation options if they fear market downturns while not being able to actively monitor their positions.
The new version improves the user experience and makes DeFi Saver features more accessible to a wider audience. Making complex DeFi interactions easier, more accessible and more efficient for end users has always been the goal of DeFi Saver.
with DeFi saverCompound users can now manage their positions automatically and more efficiently without leaving the Compound app.
