Here’s what you need to know about assets:
Optimism (OP) It is a layer 2 scaling solution implemented on the Ethereum network. It alleviates congestion on the Ethereum mainnet and lowers transaction fees by aggregating multiple transactions using a technique called optimistic rollups. OP is Optimism’s native governance token, allowing OP token holders to participate in decisions regarding the future direction, upgrades, and parameters of the protocol.
Synthesis (SNX) Cryptocurrency derivatives provide an alternative way to invest in fiat currencies, cryptocurrencies and commodities. Synthetix is a decentralized protocol built on top of Ethereum that allows users to gain exposure to assets without actually holding or managing the underlying resources. These synthetic assets (Synths) are backed by the platform’s cryptocurrency, Synthetix Network Token (SNX), which can be held as collateral to generate rewards.
Injection (INJ) It is a decentralized exchange (DEX) that provides various functions such as cross-chain margin trading, derivatives, and foreign exchange futures trading. Built on the Cosmos blockchain, a Layer 2 application, Injective uses bridges to provide cross-chain functionality that allows traders to transact on other networks. The exchange operates with INJ tokens, Injective’s native cryptocurrency, which is used by makers and takers to pay transaction fees on the network.
Celestia (TIA) A modular blockchain network focused on scalable data availability on the blockchain. Celestia helps solve the data availability issues that many blockchains face while scaling by decoupling transaction ordering from network consensus. TIA is the native token used for data transactions, network security through proof-of-stake, and enabling decentralized governance within the ecosystem.
