Symmio is a hybrid derivatives clearing protocol that enables intent-based, symmetric, leveraged trading of any asset via solver-enabled bilateral agreements. It acts as a communication, settlement, and clearing layer for permissionless derivatives, solving DeFi fragmentation by permissionlessly synthesizing exposure to virtually any asset.
Synthetix is a decentralized perpetual futures protocol on Ethereum Mainnet that uses a hybrid off-chain order matching and on-chain settlement design to deliver CEX-like performance with on-chain security. It enables trading of synthetic assets and perpetual futures, with liquidity provided by staked SNX collateral and the Synthetix Liquidity Provider vault. The protocol powers permissionless derivatives across multiple EVM chains.
