Vortex is a novel decentralized lending protocol that integrates multiple existing protocols, such as Maker, Compound, and Uniswap V2. By utilizing existing open and reconfigurable infrastructure components, Vortex aims to rebuild and expand current financial structures in a new way, building upon one another like "Lego bricks". It strives to create a permissionless, accessible, and open decentralized finance (DeFi) world for all.
