CeDeFi

CeDeFi, or Centralized Decentralized Finance, is a hybrid model that combines the features of both centralized finance (CeFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). While DeFi relies on smart contracts and blockchain protocols to automate and decentralize financial transactions, CeDeFi incorporates a centralized entity that governs and manages these decentralized protocols. CeDeFi aims to bring the benefits of both systems together, offering the transparency, accessibility, and innovation of DeFi with the security, regulation, and user-friendly interface of traditional centralized platforms. CeDeFi platforms ensure regulatory compliance and offer institutional-grade security while maintaining decentralized components such as yield farming and liquidity pools. Examples of CeDeFi platforms include Binance and KuCoin, where users can access both centralized trading services and decentralized finance products.
