* [vela](vela.md)
* one of ethereum's ecosystem's leading derivatives projects.

* synths let traders capitalize on exposure to assets without having to directly own the assets in question.
* some of Synthetix's most popular synths are its forex synths: sUDS and sEUR.
* a foundational element of Synthetix is SNX staking, which is used for collateralizing the derivatives protocol and for creating deep liquidity for synths.
* SNX stakers earn inflationary SNX rewards and a cut of sUSD fees generated by protocols that work on top of Synthetix.
* [kwenta perp trading platform on synthetix](https://mirror.xyz/kwenta.eth)
* The primary DEX in the Synthetix ecosystem.
