Centrifuge (CFG)
System: Centrifuge — Tokenised Assets
Centrifuge issues and services tokenised assets, with Centrifuge V3 providing infrastructure for asset managers, issuers and curators to launch, manage and distribute on-chain fund and RWA products. Founded in 2017, Centrifuge combines multi-chain EVM smart contracts, hub-and-spoke pool infrastructure, vaults, share-token mechanics, on-chain accounting, compliance hooks, the Centrifuge Network Foundation (CNF), Centrifuge Labs, and product-level fund, issuer, custody and compliance components where required for Centrifuge-issued claims. External base chains, external DeFi venues and non-exclusive front ends sit outside the Centrifuge boundary except as settlement rails, integrations or access surfaces.

System Attributes
Operating Model
<p>Centrifuge operates through both deployed protocol infrastructure and material off-chain operating components. The on-chain system handles pool deployment, share-token issuance, vaults, transfer controls, accounting, cross-chain distribution and role-scoped permissions, while CNF, Centrifuge Labs, issuers, curators, fund managers, custodians and compliance providers remain necessary to deliver tokenised asset products.</p>
Value Creation
<p>Centrifuge creates value by combining on-chain asset-servicing infrastructure with off-chain financial product operations. On-chain value creation comes from tokenisation, vault issuance and redemption flows, share-token mechanics, automated NAV and share-price accounting, transfer restrictions, and multi-chain distribution; off-chain value creation comes from asset management, fund structuring, custody, investor eligibility, compliance operations and institutional distribution.</p>
Value Capture
<p>Centrifuge routes investor value through on-chain vaults, share-token issuance and redemption, NAV/share-price accounting, and cross-chain tokenised fund claims. Monetary capture is currently entity- and service-provider-led: management fees, treasury management, product operations and institutional distribution are routed through the Centrifuge Network Foundation (CNF), Centrifuge Labs, issuers, managers and other service providers rather than through a live CFG-holder revenue path. This makes the system hybrid: economic claims and asset-servicing flows are routed through protocol infrastructure, while fee capture and operating economics remain primarily off-chain.</p>
