A PayFi Protocol Linking Real World Assets with DeFi

Payment is the leading application for we crypto and needs a new infra to handle compliance challenges, custodian risks, AML implementations as well as new crypto assets
DeFi needs a new infra for new yield source, compliance friendly and real world asset integration
Payment + DeFi = PayFi
Both of them need a new infrastructure layer —> PolyFlow
The fusion of crypto payments and DeFi has given rise to PayFi. PayFi seeks an entirely new infrastructure to support its implementation and address complex compliance issues. Since Solana Foundation Chair Lily Liu introduced the concept of PayFi at the Hong Kong Web3 Summit, PolyFlow has been regarded as one of the pioneering protocols aimed at constructing the financial infrastructure for PayFi.
PolyFlow’s core concept revolves around modular design, decoupling the transaction information flow and fund flow previously controlled by centralized institutions. By doing so in a decentralized manner, it enhances compliance with regulatory standards and reduces custody risks throughout the transaction process. Additionally, PolyFlow leverages blockchain features to connect with the DeFi ecosystem, facilitating the widespread adoption of PayFi applications.
In the current business model of crypto payments, whether it’s payment solution providers or asset management service providers, most operate in a centralized manner. These centralized institutions lack transparency, and the risk between trading counterparts can easily lead to single points of failure. Additionally, centralized decision-making contributes to widespread custodial risks. These issues have long plagued the industry, adding significant complexity to transactions and causing concern for regulatory agencies:
Centralized custody: Institutions holding user-related private keys exposing user assets to significant custody risks.
Traditional fiat settlement: The current crypto payment model is transitional and must be integrated with traditional fiat settlement systems, resulting in increased costs and inefficiency.
Regulatory blind spots: Opaque centralized institutions, coupled with incomplete cryptocurrency legal frameworks, pose significant challenges for regulation.
Service limitations: Single institutions supporting limited categories of cryptocurrency payment services struggle to meet diverse user needs.
DeFi incompatibility: Centralized institutions cannot effectively integrate with the DeFi ecosystem, hindering widespread adoption of PayFi.
