As reported by CoinTelegraph, decentralized finance protocol Synthetix has launched multi-collateral perpetuals trading on Coinbase's Base network as of December 18. This move is part of a broader revamp following a governance shakeup in October. The new feature allows users to use various tokens, including Coinbase Wrapped BTC (cbBTC) and Coinbase Wrapped ETH (cbETH), as collateral. This expansion aims to provide traders with more control over margin positions and easier access to hedging. Additionally, Synthetix has launched its own perpetuals trading app, marking a shift from solely providing smart contract infrastructure to offering an in-house trading platform. The Base network, a popular Ethereum layer 2 scaling solution, ranks second in total value locked, with $14 billion, according to L2Beat. This development follows Synthetix's acquisition of perps platform Kwenta and leveraged token trading platform TLX, as part of its ongoing reorganization efforts.
