A credit protocol in decentralized finance establishes rules and mechanisms for issuing, managing, and settling loans on a blockchain without traditional intermediaries. These protocols often leverage smart contracts to automate lending processes, enabling peer-to-peer or pooled lending arrangements. They define parameters such as collateral requirements, interest rates, and repayment terms.
