Unlocking Real-World Assets in DeFi: A New Era of Liquidity
Cables Finance is shaking things up in the liquidity cryptocurrency sector with its new RWA Liquid Staking Platform and the upcoming launch of Cables Perp DEX. This is a step towards supporting the DeFi 2.0 economy and tapping into existing traditional FX markets.
In 2025, a major gap in DeFi is the absence of tools to engage with real-world currencies and commodities directly on-chain. Bridging centralized and decentralized finance is essential, and Cables is keen on addressing that gap.
Cables Finance is on the verge of offering yield-bearing stable assets and a perpetual futures DEX that will connect non-USD currencies, real-world assets like commodities, and FX markets with Web3. With tools to earn and trade globally, Cables is constructing the infrastructure to facilitate liquidity movement across its rails, effectively merging core DeFi elements into a cohesive CeDeFi system, which exemplifies DeFi 2.0.
Cables Finance: Bridging Finance Worlds
Cables Finance is merging centralized efficiency with decentralized transparency. This aims to create a trustworthy ecosystem where FX operations can be executed on-chain. By leveraging Cables' access to Shift Markets' existing $5 billion daily fiat volume ecosystem, Cables sidesteps reliance on banks or complicated setups. Instead, it's about providing powerful tools that allow traders to seize control over global trading and hedging.
The Challenge: Inadequate Financial Instruments
While DeFi has witnessed rapid growth, the limited access to real-world assets has left traders wanting for effective hedging or yield opportunities. Take a European trader seeking to hedge euro exposure or earn yield on euro-denominated assets. They often find themselves relying on expensive currency swaps or foreign banking systems.
This issue extends to those diversifying into FX or commodity markets. Even though DeFi platforms have advanced in crypto trading, they lack the means to engage with real-world assets. Users wishing to trade in gold, equities, or multi-currency portfolios are left with no choice but to turn to centralized exchanges or legacy systems, bringing counterparty risks and inefficiencies back into the fold.
Lack of Tools for Yield and Hedging
In DeFi, RWAs are largely out of reach, with scant mechanisms to unlock liquidity for staking or yield generation. Cables aims to change that, making liquid RWAs a crucial part of DeFi's future and generating considerable liquidity around its infrastructure.
Yield Limitations in Web3
Web3's yield-bearing assets are predominantly USD-based stablecoins, like USDC or USDT, which don't cater to users outside USD-centric economies. Yield opportunities are scattered across staking, lending, and liquidity pools, resulting in cumbersome setups that introduce inefficiencies, fees, and risks.
Those desiring to hedge currency risks or earn yield linked to their local economies are often left out. The USD-centric system maintains a global imbalance, keeping DeFi disconnected from broader financial landscapes.
The Answer: Tapping into a Massive Market
Cables Finance aims to reshape decentralized finance by integrating RWAs into the DeFi landscape, addressing the limitations of USD-focused systems. This phased approach will introduce yield-bearing stable assets and sophisticated trading tools, fostering a financial ecosystem where users can earn, hedge, and trade across global markets more efficiently.
Phase One: Liquid Staking for RWAs
Cables is laying the groundwork with yield-bearing stable assets, such as cEUR, cJPY, and cXAU. These liquid staking tokens allow users to earn yield, trade commodities like gold, and manage currency risks through decentralized tools. Backed by a hybrid system of on-chain and off-chain FX derivatives, these assets offer consistent yields and stable valuations tied to real-world conditions. This approach transforms liquidity into an active financial resource, connecting traders and liquidity providers while preparing for more advanced trading instruments.
Phase Two: DEX Instruments for RWA Liquidity
Cables is about to unveil its Perpetual Futures DEX, a trading platform designed to leverage the growing liquidity from its yield-bearing stable assets. Unlike other perpetual DEXs that are tied exclusively to USD, Cables will support non-USD bases like cEUR, cJPY, and cXAU. This allows traders to tap into global markets in currencies and commodities that are relevant to their local economies, removing barriers created by traditional USD-centric systems.
The Perp DEX will serve as a centralized hub for trading crypto, FX, commodities, and equities. Combining low-latency off-chain order matching with secure on-chain settlement, traders can efficiently execute leveraged positions and manage diverse portfolios.
By connecting the yield from stable assets to deep liquidity pools, the Perp DEX empowers traders to hedge currency risks, open various market positions, and manage exposure with tools typically associated with centralized platforms.
A Need for Change: What’s Possible
Cables is gearing up for 2025 with bold infrastructure and a focus on regional expansion, especially in Asia, to bridge gaps in Web3. In Q1, yield-bearing stable assets like cEUR, cJPY, and cXAU will launch, unlocking global yield and hedging tools tied to real-world currencies and commodities.
Cables' launch is just the beginning, breaking free from USD-centric systems and paving the way for a perpetual futures DEX that integrates crypto, FX, commodities, and equities. This is a new frontier for DeFi, driven by the $CABLE Token—and it's merely the start.
