Ecosystem & Partners

CICADA Finance is building an interconnected ecosystem across Web3 and traditional finance, with the objective of expanding liquidity pathways, broadening asset coverage, and enabling composable onchain financial use cases. Ecosystem development is guided by two complementary tracks: Web3-native integrations and TradFi-facing collaboration frameworks.

Web3 Ecosystem Development

CICADA Finance works with ecosystem partners across DeFi protocols, exchanges, and RWA platforms to improve market accessibility and composability for yield-bearing assets. These collaborations are designed to:

• Enhance liquidity and secondary market usability for onchain assets

• Expand investment and integration opportunities across DeFi primitives

• Support seamless user participation through interoperable product and liquidity design

Where applicable, integrations may include connections to leading DeFi protocols and market venues to enable broader utility such as liquidity provisioning, lending compatibility, structured usage, and ecosystem participation programs.

Traditional Finance Integration

CICADA Finance also pursues collaboration with traditional financial institutions—such as banks, asset managers, and enterprise issuers — to bridge conventional finance with blockchain-based markets. This strategic direction is intended to:

• Facilitate compliant tokenization of real-world assets and cash-flow exposures

• Improve accessibility, transparency, and operational efficiency of traditional assets in an onchain environment

• Align institutional-grade compliance expectations with open and composable DeFi infrastructure

Through these collaboration models, CICADA Finance aims to support the transition of qualified traditional assets into standardized onchain representations under structured issuance and lifecycle management processes.

Strategic Alliances

Strategic alliances are established to strengthen CICADA Finance’s market connectivity and to diversify the range of assets and opportunities available to users. Depending on the partnership type, alliance outcomes may include:

• Protocol integrations that enable composable onchain usage

• Exchange and liquidity venue connectivity to improve accessibility and secondary market depth

• RWA platform collaboration to accelerate asset onboarding and standardization

• TradFi collaboration frameworks to enable enterprise-grade issuance, custody-aligned workflows, and disclosure standards

CICADA Finance treats ecosystem development as a long-term capability rather than a one-off integration effort, with the ecosystem designed to expand in parallel with asset categories, partner activities, and onchain product modules.
