Synthetix

Synthetix is a protocol for issuing and trading synthetic assets. It provides on-chain exposure to crypto assets, real-world currencies, commodities, stocks, and indices. These synthetic assets (Synths) are backed by Synthetix Network Tokens (SNX) locked into a smart contract as collateral. Since the launch in January 2019 the network has done over $1B in trading volume

Kyber Network

Kyber’s on-chain liquidity protocol allows decentralized token swaps to be integrated into any application, enabling value exchange to be performed seamlessly between all parties in the ecosystem. Close to 100 crypto wallets, websites and financial DApps, including MyEtherWallet, Trust, Enjin, and InstaDApp, have already integrated Kyber for their liquidity needs. Kyber has successfully facilitated over USD 500M through 600K on-chain trades and is reported as the most used DeFi project in 2019.

Ren
Ren is an open protocol enabling the permissionless and private transfer of value between any blockchain. Ren's core product, RenVM, brings interoperability to decentralized finance (DeFi).
