Centrifuge Protocol vs Kinetiq

Centrifuge Protocol tokenizes real-world assets like invoices and credit pools for DeFi. Its infrastructure bridges traditional finance and DeFi, enabling collateralization of real-world assets for on-chain lending.

Kinetiq is a non-custodial liquid staking protocol built natively on Hyperliquid L1. Users stake HYPE and receive kHYPE, a liquid, yield-accruing representation usable across the Hyperliquid DeFi ecosystem. Behind the scenes, StakeHub — Kinetiq’s autonomous validator scoring and delegation system — routes stake to the highest-performing validators to maximise yield and reinforce network security. kHYPE grows in value automatically through validator rewards, requires no claiming, and remains fully composable for lending, liquidity provision and advanced yield strategies. Kinetiq’s architecture emphasises security through multi-layered safeguards, multiple independent audits and a $5M bug bounty. The protocol also offers iHYPE, a compliant, institution-ready staking solution. With over a billion dollars staked, Kinetiq powers scalable, efficient and integrated liquid staking for the entire Hyperliquid ecosystem.
