When Crypto Drama Meets Regency Wit: Upbit’s SNX Deposit Dilemma

by

It hath come to the attention of the esteemed South Korean exchange, Upbit, that henceforth, deposits for the curious token known as SNX shall be suspended, following an ever-so-formidable caution from the Digital Asset Exchange Alliance—quite the party poopers, one might say.

In a proclamation dispatched with the gravity of a gentlewoman’s whisper at a ballroom, the Synthetix (SNX) token has been declared a “trading caution item” by the ever-watchful guardians of commerce, the Digital Asset Exchange Association, or DAXA for short. Thus, from the hour of three in the afternoon on April the twenty-fourth, all deposits of SNX shall be most strictly prohibited.

Now, Synthetix is a rather clever invention— a decentralized finance contrivance atop the Ethereum (ETH) foundation—where one may fashion and barter synthetic assets, quaintly named Synths, mirroring the worth of all manner of worldly possessions: currencies, commodities, stocks, and the like. Truly, a marvel of modern ingenuity, or perhaps a fool’s errand, depending on one’s constitution.

Alas, not long after this formal notice was uttered, SNX’s value took a tumble of nearly five percent—ouch! The poor token currently limps about at $0.69 with a market capitalization amounting to a rather modest $235 million, not quite the fortune of a landed gentleman, but still respectable in these volatile times.

Upbit, ever the conscientious steward, informs its clientele that such “trading caution items” undergo rigorous inspection to ascertain whether to continue their courtship or break off the liaison entirely.

“During this delicate review,” Upbit declared, “the designation of trading caution may linger, and should the issues remain most obstinate, the final stroke might be to sever trading support forthwith.” A dramatic turn, indeed.

The crux of the matter, dear reader, lies with SNX’s companion stablecoin, sUSD, which has regrettably refused to maintain its pledged 1:1 ratio with the noble US dollar. A breach of promise most grave in the world of finance!

This admonition from Upbit shall endure until the fifth week of May in the year 2025, when yet another review shall take place. Should the malady persist, a complete cessation of trading support may be decreed. One must keep one’s fans and gloves ready for such junctures.

Though SNX and sUSD are separate entities, they share a curious intimacy—SNX acting as “collateral” for the sUSD stablecoin. A curious arrangement, reminiscent of society’s complicated courtships.

At the moment of penning this account, sUSD—a stablecoin in name but a rebel in practice—has risen an astonishing 9.4%. Unlike other, more obedient stablecoins holding steadfast at 1 USD, sUSD has capered upward by 12.7% in the past week only to stumble by 10.6% in the preceding month, currently trading at a somewhat rebellious $0.86, still a modest $0.14 shy of its promised dollar.

In a rally deserving of a Regency heroine’s call to arms, Synthetix’s founder, the honorable Kain Warwick, entreated stakers on April 21 to contribute to the cause via staking, in hopes of restoring peace and stability afore more drastic steps be taken. Thus was born the “420 Pool,” an initiative granting SNX holders the chance to earn tokens by locking their sUSD away for a full annum—patience, thy price is stability! 🚀📉
