Plain English
Centrifuge is a DeFi platform connecting on-chain capital to real-world asset (RWA) borrowers — invoices, trade receivables, real estate, US Treasuries. CFG is the native token. Operates as a Polkadot parachain and on Ethereum.
How it actually works
Asset originators tokenize real-world cash-flowing assets as NFT pools; lenders deposit into senior or junior tranches with different risk/reward profiles. MakerDAO has been a major lender via Centrifuge pools. Anemoy Liquid Treasury Fund and other tokenized Treasury products operate through Centrifuge infrastructure.
What it means for you
Centrifuge is one of the most-established RWA platforms. For HNW investors seeking exposure to off-chain credit returns via on-chain rails, Centrifuge pools provide structured access. Senior tranches offer 5–8% yields backed by diverse RWA pools; junior tranches carry higher risk and reward. Read pool documentation carefully — each is unique.
