Synthetix Network

Value derived through systematic reduction in SNX supply via the buyback and burn mechanism. This deflationary mechanism directly impacts token value by continuously reducing circulating supply based on protocol activity. As trading volumes increase across Synthetix's synthetic assets and perpetual markets (supported by the Andromeda release), a portion of the generated fees is allocated to purchasing and burning SNX tokens, creating a direct correlation between protocol usage and value accrual for token holders through supply reduction.

Represents the collateralization requirements and associated risks that SNX stakers must accept. When staking SNX to mint the synthetic asset sUSD, holders expose themselves to potential liquidation if their collateral ratio falls below required thresholds, as well as debt pool fluctuations due to market volatility of the synthetic assets.

The Future Cashflow OoV is realized through trading fees distributed to SNX stakers who provide collateral for the system. When traders use Synthetix for synthetic asset exchanges or perpetual futures trading, the generated fees are distributed to stakers proportional to their collateral contribution.

Reflects the specific actions required to derive value from the token within the Synthetix ecosystem. Token holders must actively participate in governance through council elections and proposal voting.

Manifests through SNX's multi-council governance system, where token holders can influence protocol decisions by electing council members and voting on proposals. This includes control over protocol parameters, treasury management, and ecosystem development through specialized councils.
