The On/Off Ramp and Exchange Layer for the CAW Economy
CAWBank is an omnichain on/off ramp and exchange concept for CAW (A Hunter’s Dream). In simple terms, it maps how value can move between fiat, other crypto assets and CAW ? while keeping wallets under user or partner control wherever possible.
In short: CAWBank shows you how to move money into and out of CAW safely, using your own wallet and trusted partners.
Fiat conversions are handled only through licensed third-party on-ramp / off-ramp partners. CAWBank itself never takes custody of user fiat and does not guarantee any fiat settlement.
CAWBank is a crypto asset on/off ramp and exchange coordination service, not a licensed bank. It does not provide deposit, lending, or interest-bearing financial products.
An Exchange Layer, Not a Traditional Bank
CAWBank is a conceptual on/off ramp and exchange layer centered on CAW (A Hunter’s Dream). Its role is not to replace exchanges, wallets or payment services, but to connect them: offering users a clear way to move into and out of CAW from fiat and other cryptocurrencies.
Put simply: CAWBank is the map for “how money gets in and out of CAW” ? not a place that holds everyone’s funds in one big account.
Instead of pooling all assets into a single custody structure, CAWBank is envisioned as a routing and coordination layer. Where fiat or regulated activity is required, those functions are expected to be handled by licensed partners ? not by CAWBank itself.
CAWBank is built by CAWdecoded, an independent research and media initiative exploring how CAW can function as a long-term, omnichain-native economic layer.
Four Primary Conversion Directions
At the center of CAWBank is a simple idea: users should be able to move value around CAW in four distinct but connected directions. Implementation details, providers and availability may differ by jurisdiction, but the high-level map stays the same.
CAWBank’s job is to map and coordinate these flows, not to own every part of the stack. That keeps the architecture closer to the ethos of CAW itself.
Users, Holders, Merchants and Builders
- Start from zero: acquire CAW from fiat using supported on-ramp providers.
- Move between CAW and other crypto assets as part of a broader portfolio.
- Exit part of a CAW position into fiat for real-world expenses or risk management.
- See which rails and chains are involved without having to trace every transaction manually.
- Connect CAW-based revenue (via CAWPAY) with external currencies when necessary.
- Design products that use CAW as a unit of account while still offering on/off options.
- Integrate CAWBank flows by API to automate conversions where regulation permits.
- Offer users a documented onboarding and off-boarding experience into CAW.
How CAWBank Relates to CAWPAY
CAWBank and CAWPAY are designed as separate but coordinated layers. CAWPAY focuses on payments. CAWBank focuses on conversion and access.
- Handles CAW payments between users and merchants.
- Wallet-to-wallet settlement, non-custodial by design.
- Used in checkouts, invoices, in-app purchases and recurring payments.
- Connects CAW to fiat and other cryptocurrencies.
- Coordinates routes through partners and liquidity venues.
- Helps users and merchants move in and out of the CAW economy.
Together, these layers are meant to give CAW both a way to be used (payments) and a way to be accessed, rebalanced and risk-managed (on/off ramp and exchange).
Non-Custodial First, Partner-Based for Fiat
CAWBank is intended to sit between existing rails, not to replace them. Wherever possible, CAW-related balances stay under user-controlled wallets, while fiat handling and regulated services are offloaded to licensed partners.
- CAWBank is not a licensed bank or deposit institution.
- No deposit-taking, lending or interest-bearing products are offered.
- Services are limited to crypto asset on/off ramp and exchange coordination.
- Availability, partners and exact flows may differ by jurisdiction and regulation.
In other words: CAWBank is meant to be an exchange and routing layer for a CAW-centric economy, not a traditional bank and not a promise of principal protection.
