# Core Architecture

The Cables platform connects traditional financial infrastructure with onchain smart contracts to enable minting, staking, and utility of real-world assets like gold, euro, and yen. At the core of the system is a hybrid architecture that bridges centralized liquidity aggregation with decentralized onchain interaction.

On the offchain side, Cables integrates with FX liquidity providers and treasury systems to manage reserves and maintain asset integrity. These reserves back tokenized RWAs, which are issued and redeemed via smart contracts deployed on Ethereum and Arbitrum.

Onchain, users can mint or redeem assets like cXAU or cEUR, stake them to earn yield, and interact with a transparent rewards system tied to ecosystem activity. The staking layer connects to a treasury wallet that dynamically rebalances backing reserves to match onchain demand. DEX aggregators support asset swaps, enabling users to move between RWAs efficiently.

This architecture ensures capital efficiency, price stability, and coordinated liquidity between offchain reserves and onchain activity - allowing real-world assets to function as yield-bearing, composable primitives across the Cables ecosystem.
