# Introduction

The Circular Protocol is designed to seamlessly integrate with Centralized Exchanges (CEX), enabling efficient management and transfer of assets across public blockchains. With its multi-chain architecture, Circular offers a flexible solution for exchanges looking to support CIRX and other Circular-native assets, providing secure and scalable transactions.

This guide provides centralized exchanges with step-by-step instructions on how to integrate Circular’s blockchain, interact with the Circular SDK, manage wallet operations, query blockchain data, and process transactions. Whether you are facilitating trades, tracking balances, or retrieving transaction history, this documentation is designed to help you implement Circular’s blockchain capabilities smoothly into your exchange infrastructure.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://circular-protocol.gitbook.io/cex-integration-guide/introduction.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
