SYN Synapse

Synapse is a cross-chain layer ∞ protocol powering frictionless interoperability between blockchains. By providing decentralized, permissionless transactions between any L1, sidechain, or L2 ecosystem, Synapse powers integral blockchain activities such as asset transfers, swaps, and generalized messaging with cross-chain functionality – and in so doing enables new primitives based off of its cross-chain architecture.

SYN (Synapse Token) SYN is the asset that powers the Synapse Ecosystem. It is used for community governance votes via the SynapseDAO, as an incentive for the liquidity providers that enable the protocol’s cross-chain functionality, and as a subsidy to pay for the gas expended by network validators to secure transactions across the network.

Once the Synapse Chain reaches the Archean Phase, SYN will provide economic security for the chain by requiring validators to stake it in order to operate on the network. As the native token of the Synapse Chain, SYN may also be used to pay for transactions within the network as well as for bridging to other chains.
