Synthetix (SNX) is a decentralized synthetic asset issuance protocol built on Ethereum. It allows the creation and trading of synthetic assets collateralized by SNX, used for hedging, gaining exposure to diverse assets, and trading on the price movements of real-world assets. SNX stakers are incentivized to contribute to the network and capture fees generated from Synth exchanges, which determine the value of the SNX token.

Synthetix is a decentralized synthetic asset issuance protocol built on Ethereum. It allows the creation and trading of synthetic assets, which are collateralized by the Synthetix Network Token (SNX). The platform is designed to address liquidity and slippage issues experienced by decentralized exchanges.

Synthetix was created by Kain Warwick in 2018. Warwick is also the founder of Blueshyft, an Australian payment processing company.

Synthetix is used for a variety of purposes, such as hedging against price fluctuations, gaining exposure to a diverse range of assets, and trading on the price movements of real-world assets without actually owning them. The platform currently supports synthetic fiat currencies, cryptocurrencies (long and short), and commodities. SNX holders are incentivized to stake their tokens as they are paid a pro-rata portion of the fees generated through activity on Synthetix.Exchange, based on their contribution to the network. The value of the SNX token is derived from the right to participate in the network and capture fees generated from Synth exchanges.
