Utility
- Became an incentive token for its rollup (28-7-2022):
"How does Synapse’s optimistic verification system secure itself? Enter SYN — the economic incentive for the system’s off-chain actors to reach consensus on the validity of cross-chain transactions. Notaries are required to bond SYN to attest to outgoing transactions. Similarly, guards have to stake SYN in order to prevent griefing attacks, a process that regular holders will be able to participate in via DPoS. Dishonest behavior results in SYN being slashed."

Transaction Details
How it works
- From the chain announcement (28-7-2022):
"Synapse Chain is designed as an Ethereum-based optimistic rollup. By leveraging Synapse’s messaging system and bridge, Synapse Chain will become the organizational hub of all cross-chain activity. Rather than deploy your dapp on ten different chains, why not deploy it on the bridge protocol that’s already connected to every chain? With Synapse Chain, a dapp’s business logic can be hosted on a single execution environment, while simultaneously being able to communicate with all other blockchains. This means "multi-chain" transactions happen atomically, meaning directly on the chain itself.
Fees
- Upon launch of the chain, gas will be paid in ETH, but the DAO may explore ways to tie usage of the chain to SYN (28-7-2022).
