Synthetix releases the 2026 roadmap, focusing on six major directions including stock buybacks and multi-collateral trading

Synthetix releases the 2026 roadmap, covering six major directions:

• Stock Buybacks and Restoration of USD Pegged Exchange Rate: All trading revenues will be used for SNX stock buybacks and USD buybacks. The goal is to achieve a stable USD pegged exchange rate by the end of the second quarter.
• Multi-Collateral Trading (April): Native deposits of ETH, cbBTC, and other assets as collateral on Synthetix Perps - releasing billions of dollars of idle Ethereum mainnet funds.
• Basis Trading Vault (Second Quarter): Popularizing access to delta-neutral basis trading strategies, with stablecoin assets represented as supported by basis trading.
• Synthetix Liquidity Pool (SLP) Public Release (Second Quarter): A community-owned market-making vault - no management fees, no performance fees, currently in private beta testing with an annualized yield of about 45%.
• Market Expansion: The cryptocurrency market expands in the first quarter, the commodities market begins to expand in April, the foreign exchange market starts expanding in June, and pre-release perpetual contracts for highly anticipated tokens.
• Digital Dollar Vision: Transitioning sUSD to a fully decentralized, basis trading-collateralized stablecoin—supported by a Perp DEX that uniquely owns the native stablecoin.

Synthetix states that 2026 is the year of Synthetix's return, with a clear goal: to provide the best perpetual trading experience in the DeFi space, relying on the security, composability, and neutrality of the Ethereum mainnet.
