Simple Summary

\n\n

As virtual Synths and other cross-asset swaps become more viable it is important the protocol continues to add liquid in-demand assets. There are a number of highly liquid assets not yet supported by Synthetix, this SIP proposes to add two of them s1INCH, sRUNE.

\n

Abstract

\n\n

This SIP will add the two new ERC-20 assets as Synths, s1INCH, sRUNE. It does not propose adding inverse Synths for these assets.

\n

Motivation

\n\n

There are two main reasons for adding additional ERC-20 asset support, the first is the growing usage of virtual Synths for cross-asset swaps. The second and more important reason is that as Synthetix transitions to OE many ERC-20 assets will have low liquidity initially, so Synthetix will be able to support exchanges of these assets helping to bootstrap liquidity.

\n

Specification

\n\n

Rationale

\n\n

The Synths proposed were chosen as they are some of those most in demand by the comunity over the last few months. The reasoning behind only proposing the sSynths and not the iSynths is to allow avoid the need for depreacting them when iSynths are eventually depracated. Once thye have been live for a reasonable amount of time a SIP will be required to enable shorting of these assets.
