It should clearly explain why the existing protocol specification is inadequate to address the problem that the SIP solves. SIP submissions without sufficient motivation may be rejected outright.-->\n<p>Adding long/inverse exposure to a range of new crypto Synths will allow traders to speculate on the value of some of the best-known tokens in the ecosystem. This update is intended to attract more traders to Synthetix.Exchange, adding to the growing list of available Synths. It's important to attract new traders to the platform, because the entire protocol is built around rewarding SNX stakers with fees generated by trding volume.</p>\n<h2 id=\"specification\" style=\"position:relative;\"><a href=\"#specification\" aria-label=\"specification permalink\" class=\"anchor before\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" height=\"16\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" width=\"16\"><path fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M4 9h1v1H4c-1.5 0-3-1.69-3-3.5S2.55 3 4 3h4c1.45 0 3 1.69 3 3.5 0 1.41-.91 2.72-2 3.25V8.59c.58-.45 1-1.27 1-2.09C10 5.22 8.98 4 8 4H4c-.98 0-2 1.22-2 2.5S3 9 4 9zm9-3h-1v1h1c1 0 2 1.22 2 2.5S13.98 12 13 12H9c-.98 0-2-1.22-2-2.5 0-.83.42-1.64 1-2.09V6.25c-1.09.53-2 1.84-2 3.25C6 11.31 7.55 13 9 13h4c1.45 0 3-1.69 3-3.5S14.5 6 13 6z\"></path></svg></a>Specification</h2>\n<!--The technical specification should describe the syntax and semantics of any new feature.-->\n<p>These Synths will be implemented in much the same way as the other long/Inverse crypto Synths.
