Pieces of #Synthetix puzzle are falling into their places...
I spent some time, since morning, to figure out where we are now, in terms of progress... 🧵
1. Alphecca Release on Nov. 30th introduced some upgrades to #Synthetix contracts, to facilitate upcoming migration of debt and collateral from V2 to V3.
4. SIP-255: Burn fees instead of distributing them
This SIP proposes burning fees collected by the fee pool on instead of allowing them to claim the fees and have it transferred to them. This will have the effect of reducing user's debt overall.
#Synthetix core-contributors split up into two groups in 2021, to build two different scopes at the same time. At the same time #SNX on-boarded additional engineers and core contributors to accelerate the process.
As you know, @optimismPBC's mainnet launches in March. @synthetix_io in Phase 0 of mainnet and Phase 1 coming in couple days/weeks. Phase 2 coincides with launch of Synthetix V3, a compete re-write of the original codebase.
This is what's coming in next 2 months on V3:
1/13
New SNX staking mechanism
This mechanism would require users to send SNX to a contract to stake and SNX outside this contract would always be freely transferable.
2/13
eSNX
This change would create eSNX which would be paid out directly to wallets but not immediately staked as is the case now. Instead stakers would be able to burn it and receive escrowed SNX which would unlock after a year, this creates more flexibility for stakers.
