The protocol highlighted the success of V2, with a milestone of $30 billion in total value based on innovations such as on-chain perps, risk management focus and the introduction of new standard features such as dynamic funding rates and price impact.
With Synthetix heading to V3, users are predicted to be able to take advantage of collateral from various coins, such as sUSD, sETH and sBTC, for use as margin. Liquidity upgrades and innovations, such as cross-margining and account-based access, will be central to Perp V3. Although excitement about V3 has been around for some time, the exact launch date has not yet been announced.
