A blockchain venture studio based in Auckland, New Zealand, Centrality is a blockchain ecosystem designed to support startups at each stage of their life cycle using dapps (decentralised applications).
CENNZ is Centrality’s native utility token and is used to connect Centrality marketplace applications and perform a wide range of other tasks. Following a hugely successful ICO in early 2018 that raised US$260 million, the project has attracted plenty of interest from New Zealand, Australia and further afield.
So if you’re thinking of buying any CENNZ tokens, read on to find out how.
CENNZ tokens are currently only available from the HitBTC digital currency exchange.
If you want to buy CENNZ tokens, you can do so in three simple steps:
Step 1. Register with an exchange that lists CENNZ
At the time of writing (August 2019), HitBTC is one of the only exchanges where you can buy CENNZ. To sign up for an account, you’ll need to provide your email address and create a username and password. Make sure you also enable two-factor authentication on your account to provide increased security for your coins and tokens.
Step 2. Deposit funds into your account
HitBTC accepts cryptocurrency deposits, so you can transfer bitcoin (BTC) into your account to buy CENNZ.

Step 3. Buy CENNZ
Once your deposit has arrived, search for the CENNZ/BTC currency pair and look for existing orders if you want to buy from the current list of sell orders. Alternatively, place a buy order to see if you can purchase CENNZ.
Make sure you review the full details of your transaction before finalising your purchase.
If you’re selling your CENNZ tokens, the process is essentially the same as that outlined in step 3 above, except you're selling CENNZ for another currency, rather than buying. Note that you may not be able to directly exchange CENNZ tokens for the currency you want.
If you’re looking for a long-term storage solution, keeping your tokens in an exchange wallet exposes you to a number of security risks and is generally not recommended. Instead, you can provide greater security for your funds (and peace of mind for yourself) by moving your tokens into a secure wallet that lets you control your private keys.
As CENNZ is an ERC20 token on the Ethereum network, you’ll need to store your CENNZ in a wallet that supports these types of tokens. For example, you could opt for an online interface like MyEtherWallet or a hardware wallet like the Ledger Nano S.
According to its website, Centrality is “a venture studio that partners with leading innovators in key industries to create a marketplace of applications. These applications allow consumers to manage everyday tasks and experiences using peer-to-peer transactions – all via one login and using blockchain-enabled infrastructure.”
In other words, it aims to help tech startups and other business put their products and ideas on the blockchain ecosystem. Centrality then becomes the central hub for all those dapps, which consumers can access using just the one login.
Centrality says it also offers tools, services and applications that developers can use to create dapps. This design aims to give startups flexibility over their product, but at the same time ensure that there’s a standardised look and feel across all Centrality platform dapps.
Centrality’s white paper sums up how the project works:
Centrality’s token launch took place in early 2018 and reportedly raised US$265 million, well in excess of its US$100 million hard cap.
Cryptocurrencies are complex and speculative assets, and there are many factors that can influence the price of any given coin or token. With this in mind, you should always thoroughly research any project before deciding whether to make a purchase.
If you’re thinking of buying any CENNZ, make sure you consider the following factors:
By considering these and other factors, you’ll be able to make an informed decision about whether to buy CENNZ.
