$SYN Token

the SYN token is being migrated to the CX token. Learn more about the migration here.

As part of the conversion the Total Supply will increase ~49M (19.75%) from 250,000,000 SYN to 299,380,000 SYN immediately. There was no immediate change in the Circulating Supply. The conversion ratio for SYN to CX is 1:5.5.

As part of the conversion, the Total Supply of CX is thus 1,646,590,000 CX. This reflects the above increase in the SYN total supply (299,380,000 * 5.5). There was no immediate change in the Circulating Supply. The additional ~271M CX supply (~49M*5.5) is vested over 4 years with a one year cliff (inflation rate of 4.9%).

Of the 271M CX total supply increase:

66.6% (181,060,000 CX) of the allocation increase is delegated to the team (token grants to current and future contributors). This is vested over 4 years with a one year cliff.

33.3% (90,530,000 CX) of the allocation increase is delegated to Ecosystem & Growth. This is allocated for marketing efforts, grants for builders, security (audits), and other growth initiatives (like trading competitions etc.). This is vested over 4 years with a one year cliff.

$SYN is the legacy governance token for the Synapse Protocol. As per SIP - 43, all SYN tokens will be converted to CX. To learn more about the conversion, please see https://docs.cortexprotocol.com/docs/Misc/TokenUpgradeFAQ.

There are no unlocks, all future $SYN emissions are governed by the DAO.

CX Token

The $CX token serves to decentralise the Cortex Protocol, and is used to govern Synapse and Cortex Protocol. More information about Cortex can be found in the Cortex Docs
