The Subsequent Chapter of Synthetix Begins Now
In 2022, Synthetix left Ethereum Mainnet, lured by the low charges and considerable blockspace of Optimism. However we shortly (slowly) realized that the layer two scaling roadmap had some harsh trade-offs for functions.

That is only the start for Synthetix, with a lot extra to come back in 2026.
Over the approaching weeks and months, we will likely be rolling out an unbelievable pipeline of latest merchandise and options: multicollateral margin, extra markets each week, RWAs, deep composability with DeFi, partnerships with main protocols on Ethereum, optimistic and trust-minimized orderbooks, and extra.

Revitalizing SNX and sUSD within the Synthetix Ecosystem
During the last 12 months, the SNX token has reclaimed its place on the coronary heart of the Synthetix ecosystem as a supply of yield, liquidity, and governance alignment. We’ve overhauled SNX staking to be intuitive: stake SNX, earn protocol charges. No PhD in DeFi required. The staking providing is easy, without having for hedging, energetic debt administration, or advanced onboarding.
Synthetix additionally has the third longest dwelling stablecoin, sUSD.Whereas Synthetix v3 experimented with exterior collateral, different protocols adopted the Synthetix instance and launched their very own stablecoins. Synthetix Mainnet restores the crucial perform of sUSD, unlocking thousands and thousands in staked SNX liquidity to supercharge the alternate.
Stakers now not mint sUSD; that position now sits with the Treasury Market, which dynamically mints, burns, and deploys sUSD to take care of the peg and gasoline buying and selling liquidity within the orderbook. sUSD would be the deposit asset for AMMs to market-make on the alternate, producing yield from buying and selling exercise, from sharing charges, and from liquidations.
Synthetix has been a DeFi pioneer since its inception. With >50% of SNX now stakedTreasury-funded buybacks, and a Mainnet launch coming in simply 5 days, SNX is poised for a renewed position in DeFi.
