Spartan Council and SIP updates

Starting out with a liquidity provider update, additional LP incentives are live and are currently paying about 80% in SNX and stablecoins — these incentives will run for 4 weeks before being reassessed. With SCCP-373 implemented, fee share to LPs has also been increased from 40% to 60% of the fees generated on V3, which is more in line with what the market is offering to LPs in terms of fee share. Synthetix Treasury also intends to channel some integrator fees to add to V3 LPs’ revenue. Head to liquidity.synthetix.io to provide liquidity and claim your rewards!

And for a quick staker update, while there is nothing yet for L2 stakers to do on Optimism, SNX stakers on L1 can migrate to V3 to mint at 500% c-ratio. A tokenomics announcement is expected to be published for stakers by the end of the year.

Next, the TLX acquisition passed through governance just over a week ago and the Core Contributors are currently getting a better feel for the codebase as they clean things up in preparation for a Base deployment. There are also plans for a V2 leverage token launch in early 2025. Both of these launches (Base and Optimism) will be accompanied by some initial incentive programs.

The Kwenta acquisition contract work is also complete — so head over to the Synthetix Exchange, formerly Kwenta, and trade new markets like $SOL/ETH Perps, now available on Base and Arbitrum. Whether you’re an ETH maxi or SOL degen, you can now trade these markets against each other with leverage.
