# Hybrid Approach to CeDeFi EarnPark aims to bridge the gap between centralized and decentralized finance by using a hybrid approach that combines the best practices of CeFi and DeFi. While decentralized finance (DeFi) holds enormous potential, currently, the liquidity and infrastructure of centralized services remain more developed, with trading volume on decentralized protocols accounting for only about 10% of the overall market. In most of our strategies, we leverage centralized exchanges (CEX), making our platform a hybrid of CeFi and DeFi. In the coming years, we plan to gradually increase the share of decentralized solutions while maintaining high liquidity and a reliable centralized infrastructure. The hybrid approach allows: * **Users** to build portfolios of strategies with varying levels of risk and transparency, using both decentralized protocols and trusted management. * **Managers** to flexibly adapt to market changes, forecast fund management timelines, and effectively manage risks. * **The platform** to attract institutional investors by offering secure management tools through approved contracts and whitelisted addresses. We believe in the future of decentralization and apply its principles—such as consensus, transparency, and immutability of ownership rights—to provide a high level of trust and control for our users. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
