Simple Summary

This SIP proposes the addition of WETH, wstETH, cbETH, and cbBTC tokens as LP collateral on Base V3 deployment.

Abstract

In order to enhance the diversity of yield-generation and exposure options for LP collateral within the Synthetix ecosystem, this SIP aims to add WETH, wstETH, cbETH, and cbBTC tokens as LP collateral on Base V3 deployment.

Motivation

  1. Capital Efficiency: Expand use cases for WETH, wstETH, cbETH, and cbBTC holders, letting them earn yield while retaining exposure to underlying yields.
  2. Diversification: Incorporate multiple types of ETH- and BTC-based derivatives to spread risk.
  3. Ecosystem Growth on Base: Attract additional users and liquidity through widely recognized “blue-chip” derivatives.
  4. Arbitrum Match: Provide a home for wstETH and WETH Arbitrum LPs on Base.
