With today’s launch of Synthetix Multi-Collateral Perps V3 on Kwenta, we’re kicking off a promotional incentive program for traders and liquidity providers.
Traders can now benefit from reduced taker fees for a two-week period, and liquidity providers will see increased APYs as the treasury allocates rewards from trading fees to a month-long promotion.
In the previous versions of Synthetix, traders had to use stablecoins (sUSD or USDC) as collateral. Now, you can use a variety of assets to keep your exposure to your favorite cryptocurrency while trading. The new collateral options are:
Wrapped Bitcoin (tBTC)
Ethereum (ETH)
Ethena (USDe)
USDx (Synthetix-native Arbitrum stablecoin)
Note: Users who deposit USDe will earn Sats from Ethena’s Season 3 campaign.
