Description

Horizon Protocol stands out as a unique DeFi platform that goes beyond conventional services like borrowing, lending, and liquidity by facilitating the development of synthetic assets on-chain that mirror real-world economic instruments. By allowing the creation and liquidity supply of these synthetic assets, participants can earn rewards and fees in tokens by contributing stablecoins and major cryptocurrencies to support these digital representations. This innovative approach seeks to closely mimic the price dynamics, volatility, and associated risk and return attributes of the underlying real assets. Furthermore, Horizon plans to implement an experimental asset verification protocol to enhance its functionality, enabling the accurate verification and synthetic replication of physical assets and other valuable instruments. This protocol will play a crucial role in linking synthetic instruments to relevant market data, economic indicators, and demand trends, ultimately aiding in their pricing. Through these advancements, Horizon aims to bridge the gap between decentralized finance and the real economy effectively.

Description

Synthetix is a protocol for the issuance of decentralized synthetic assets operating on the Ethereum blockchain. These synthetic assets, known as Synths, are backed by the Synthetix Network Token (SNX), which, when locked within the contract, allows for the creation of these assets. The model of pooled collateral permits users to exchange Synths directly through the smart contract, eliminating the necessity for counterparties. This innovative approach addresses common problems such as liquidity and slippage that decentralized exchanges often face. Currently, Synthetix provides synthetic representations of fiat currencies, cryptocurrencies (both long and short), as well as various commodities. SNX holders are motivated to stake their tokens, as they earn a proportional share of the fees accrued from transactions on Synthetix.Exchange, reflecting their stake in the ecosystem. This right to engage with the network and earn fees from Synth transactions contributes to the intrinsic value of the SNX token. Notably, traders do not need to hold SNX in order to participate in trading on Synthetix.Exchange, enhancing accessibility for a broader audience. By doing so, Synthetix opens the door for more users to engage in trading without needing to invest in the underlying token initially.
