First up, a draft roadmap for the yr was launched, and the important thing milestones embody:

Scaling base quantity to $20 million/dayDeciding on a brand new chain to deploy V3 and Perps toConverting governance to be totally on-chain:

Jackson requested if this was actually a precedence provided that it doesn’t transfer the dial a lot for the tip person (merchants) of the Synthetix product (Perps). Cav replied saying the additional decentralization of governance is one thing that the protocol has been working in direction of for some time, and persevering with to construct on that is a vital a part of the protocol.

This has been in progress for some time, and has already been via one audit and is preparing for a second. This might be a V3 launch, which suggests there’ll should be enough collateral on V3 on L1, which can require some incentives. The goal proper now could be roughly $100 million of SNX collateral to make this a purposeful product for the anticipated person base — which is roughly 20% of the SNX within the V2 system. Releasing Perps on L1 would additionally require approving wstETH as margin, which has been requested by potential integrators like Ethena.

Starting the migration of SNX from V2X:

The most important dependency for V2X to V3 migration is the vacation spot chain.

Cav has a SIP in progress to stipulate who owns every a part of the roadmap and correctly allocate sources to every piece. There was some concern that the CCs can be stretched even thinner with a number of deployments, however Cav thinks the Treasury Council (TC) will help remedy a few of these points. A part of the motivation behind releasing this roadmap was to make extra clear precisely what the protocol intends to perform over the following yr, then put the sources in place to verify it may well get completed.

After reviewing the roadmap, the SC mentioned bridging. Millie voiced assist for potential future remoted deployments, however mentioned he would vote no on any bridging integrations. ML_sudo is in favor of interoperability, however is worried about safety. Jackson thinks the rationale that Synthetix is hesitant about bridging is as a result of that’s not an space of experience for the protocol, so the desire needs to be to work with suppliers who’re specialists.
