### What is Centrifuge (CFG)?
Centrifuge (CFG) is a decentralised finance protocol designed to bring **real-world assets (RWAs)** on-chain. It enables businesses to tokenise traditional assets such as invoices, real estate, and receivables, unlocking liquidity from assets that are typically illiquid in traditional finance. By connecting these tokenised assets to DeFi, Centrifuge helps borrowers access capital more efficiently while giving investors exposure to asset-backed yields.

The **CFG token** is the native asset of the Centrifuge ecosystem, used for governance, staking, transaction fees, and liquidity incentives across the network.

### How does Centrifuge (CFG) work?
Centrifuge operates on **Centrifuge Chain**, a Layer 1 blockchain built with **Substrate** and optimised for asset financing. It uses a **Nominated Proof-of-Stake (NPoS)** consensus model to secure the network and integrates directly with **Ethereum** via a two-way bridge for DeFi interoperability.

Its flagship application, **Tinlake**, is a decentralised lending marketplace where businesses can tokenise assets and use them as collateral for on-chain loans. Investors fund these pools to earn yield from asset-backed securities, all managed transparently by smart contracts.

By bridging real-world finance with blockchain technology, Centrifuge transforms physical and financial assets into liquid, programmable instruments that can move freely within the DeFi ecosystem.

### What are the potential use cases for Centrifuge (CFG)?
Centrifuge supports a variety of real-world and DeFi use cases:
- **Invoice and supply chain financing** — tokenising receivables for faster liquidity.  
- **Real estate and mortgage tokenisation** — fractionalising property ownership.  
- **Institutional DeFi** — onboarding regulated entities into decentralised markets.  
- **Asset-backed lending** — enabling stable, collateralised investment pools.  
- **Cross-chain asset integration** — using tokenised assets in DeFi platforms such as MakerDAO and Aave.
