Centrifuge adds Symbiotic liquidity network across $1.6B in Janus Henderson, NYLIM funds
Centrifuge has integrated Symbiotic’s Liquid Lane to provide immediate USDC liquidity for three of its tokenized funds, representing approximately $1.6 billion in assets under management. The integration covers Janus Henderson’s JAAA AAA-rated collateralized loan obligation strategy and JTRSY short-duration US Treasury strategy, alongside New York Life Investment Management’s HYB high-yield corporate bond strategy. Symbiotic’s Liquid Lane utilizes an onchain request-for-quote marketplace, allowing market makers to fill redemption requests by tapping into liquidity vaults. This mechanism enables investors to receive USDC instantly, decoupling the payout from the standard fund redemption timeline. By aggregating redemption demand across multiple issuers and asset classes, the platform aims to improve the economics for market makers who have historically faced low trading volumes. This development marks a significant step in enhancing the secondary market liquidity for institutional-grade tokenized assets. As tokenized funds increasingly serve as collateral in onchain markets, such infrastructure improvements are essential for broader adoption and capital efficiency.
Centrifuge tokenizes Janus Henderson Anemoy Treasury Fund as JTRSY crosses $882M in assets
The Janus Henderson Anemoy Treasury Fund, tokenized as JTRSY on the Centrifuge platform, has emerged as a significant onchain investment product, reaching a peak of $1 billion in assets under management in early 2026. Currently holding approximately $882 million in value, the fund provides professional non-US investors with exposure to short-duration US Treasury bills. In March 2025, S&P Global Ratings assigned the fund an AA+f/S1+ rating, marking it as the highest-rated tokenized fund at that time. The product utilizes the ERC-7540 token standard to facilitate structured deposit and redemption flows, with settlement occurring via USDC rails. By offering real-time NAV tracking and same-day liquidity, the fund addresses traditional friction points that have historically hindered institutional adoption of blockchain infrastructure. Janus Henderson’s role as sub-advisor underscores the growing institutional interest in integrating traditional asset management with decentralized finance protocols. This development highlights the maturation of the RWA sector, as high-credit-quality assets become increasingly available as collateral within decentralized lending ecosystems.
Centrifuge partners with Ground to expand tokenized asset offerings
On July 22, 2026, Centrifuge and Ground announced a strategic partnership to streamline institutional access to tokenized real-world assets through integrated API technology. By combining Centrifuge’s established tokenization infrastructure, which has managed between $1.3 billion and $2 billion in assets, with Ground’s fintech API capabilities, the collaboration simplifies the integration of on-chain finance for banks and startups. The partnership specifically enables access to Janus Henderson’s JTRSY treasury fund and JAAA collateralized loan obligation fund. This development is significant for the RWA market as it lowers technical barriers for traditional financial institutions to adopt structured credit products and tokenized treasuries. By facilitating seamless API connectivity, the initiative aims to increase market liquidity and broaden the investor base for on-chain assets. The move reflects a growing trend of institutional demand for diversified yield opportunities within a compliant blockchain framework. Ultimately, this integration could redefine how traditional finance entities engage with decentralized infrastructure, potentially accelerating the broader adoption of tokenized financial products.
Centrifuge’s JAAA token settles instantly in Kraken’s custody 24/7
Kraken Institutional has integrated the JAAA token, a tokenized AAA-rated collateralized loan obligation (CLO) managed by Janus Henderson, into its qualified custody framework. This development marks the first real-world asset available within Kraken Custody, enabling institutional investors to hold the asset while benefiting from 24/7 instant on-chain settlement. The JAAA token, which currently represents approximately $686 million in assets, allows institutions to use their holdings as collateral for trading and borrowing via Kraken Prime. By leveraging Centrifuge’s tokenization infrastructure, the fund provides a 3.66% annualized yield while maintaining the security of a regulated custody environment. Originally seeded with $1 billion from the Sky ecosystem in June 2025, the asset has already seen significant adoption, including a $200 million allocation from Ethena. This integration bridges the gap for institutions hesitant about pure DeFi exposure by offering a familiar, regulated custody structure for high-quality credit assets. However, the move also introduces complex risk layers, as users are stacking traditional credit risk from the underlying corporate loans with smart contract risks and potential leverage on platforms like Aave Horizon.
Centrifuge facilitates $200M investment in Janus Henderson’s JAAA on Solana
Ethena has integrated $200 million in AAA-rated collateralized loan obligation (CLO) shares into its USDe stablecoin backing, marking a significant expansion into institutional-grade credit. Facilitated by Centrifuge using its deRWA standard, this deployment represents one of the largest real-world asset issuances on the Solana blockchain to date. The move diversifies Ethena’s collateral base beyond its traditional crypto-native delta-neutral strategies, aiming to increase institutional appeal. Janus Henderson, an asset manager overseeing $480 billion, provided the JAAA fund shares and has also invested in Ethena’s ENA governance token. While the current allocation is $200 million, Ethena maintains a risk-approved expansion cap of $310 million. This partnership signals a deepening integration between traditional finance and decentralized infrastructure, as Janus Henderson explores using USDe for its own treasury operations. The development contributes to the 109% year-to-date growth of tokenized assets on Solana, though it introduces new credit and technical risks for stablecoin holders.
