Centrifuge V3 Development Milestone: Governance Approves Token Architecture Update

**Most onchain equity today is synthetic** - just price exposure without actual ownership rights. **Real onchain equity** means actual company shares on blockchain with full legal protections, issued by the company and recorded in regulated registries. Two key developments made this possible: - **Regulation**: SEC-registered transfer agents can now maintain official shareholder records onchain - **Infrastructure**: Smart contracts and real-time settlement are production-ready **The opportunity is massive.** BCG and Ripple project tokenized real-world assets reaching $19T by 2033, with equities and funds driving growth. **Crypto-native companies benefit first.** While tokens helped bootstrap communities, they lack enforceable investor rights and clear institutional capital paths. **Caesar demonstrates this breakthrough** - the first crypto-native company issuing real equity onchain through Centrifuge's SEC-registered infrastructure. Contributors and institutions share the same shareholder ledger with no parallel systems or fragmentation.

**JAAA structure receives external validation** as onchain credit transitions into institutional territory. Falcon's acceptance of **JAAA and JTRSY tokens** as collateral marks a significant milestone. These structured credit products are becoming programmable building blocks for: - Enhanced liquidity solutions - Institutional leverage products - New financial instrument development This integration demonstrates how **tokenized assets are evolving** beyond simple digitization into functional DeFi infrastructure. The move signals broader institutional adoption of onchain credit markets, with structured products gaining recognition as legitimate collateral in decentralized finance protocols.
