Introduction
What CerinFI is, what it is not, and how to read this documentation.
CerinFI is an intelligence layer for navigating decentralized markets. It takes fragmented on-chain observations and organizes them into a clearer view of liquidity, activity, market conditions and risk.
This documentation describes the product surface (Market Explorer, Liquidity Analytics, Cerin Signal), the architecture that powers it, and the principles that constrain what CerinFI will and will not say.
Core philosophy
Three rules shape every screen in the product.
- Data before action.
- Signal before noise.
- Context before capital.
Status
Market figures on the landing page and in the Intelligence Terminal are live on-chain observations sourced from the public GeckoTerminal API, refreshed every five minutes. If the source is unreachable, the site shows an explicit unavailable state; it never substitutes demo figures for live ones.
