$CRED is not just a utility token—it’s the fuel of Credible’s credit economy. It bridges the protocol’s PayFi rails, onchain reputation layer, and DeFi capital infrastructure, making it a critical asset for:

  • Users building credit

  • Institutions issuing credit

  • Ecosystems co-launching branded cards

  • Developers building on Credible’s SDK

As adoption grows, $CRED becomes the trust and incentive layer behind a decentralized financial future.
