Syncus: Reshaping Decentralized Finance Game Theory to Break the prisoner's dilemma
Redefining Game Theory: Syncus Paves a New Path for Decentralized Finance
In the last bull market, DeFi was considered one of the most disruptive innovations in the blockchain space. However, due to technical imperfections or structural flaws in economic models, many projects ultimately fell into difficulties. In the current market environment, how can we reshape the glory of DeFi? Syncus may provide a potential solution.
Introduction to Syncus
Syncus is a decentralized currency reserve protocol deployed on the zkSync Era chain, dedicated to becoming the core of the zkSync DeFi ecosystem. It aims to provide comprehensive financial services, including lending, collateral, stablecoins, interest accounts, and more, to create a truly decentralized "bank" system.
As an Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution, zkSync Era provides an ideal development platform for DeFi projects with its efficiency, low cost, and strong security. Syncus was born in this context.
Core Concept: Breaking the Prisoner's Dilemma
Syncus's core concept is to redefine the application of game theory in the field of Decentralized Finance. It aims to break the zero-sum game in traditional protocols and design a mechanism to transcend the prisoner's dilemma, creating an ecosystem where all participants can benefit.
Lessons Learned from OlympusDAO
OlympusDAO once addressed the issue of token holder dilution to some extent through the innovative ve(3,3) model. However, its strategy has inherent flaws in assumptions and does not fully align with real market behavior.
Syncus optimization plan
Syncus has designed a mechanism that allows the actions of each participant to contribute to the benefits of the entire ecosystem. Even in seemingly adverse actions, the DAO and long-term holders can still profit. This mechanism is similar to a decentralized casino, ensuring that the DAO and participants can always profit from the system.
Two-player Model and SYNC token elasticity
In the Two-player Model of Syncus, any sale of SYNC results in a loss for the seller, but stakeholders benefit. At the same time, each transaction brings revenue to the DAO. This mechanism attracts more participants, creating a self-sustaining ecological cycle. Even if SYNC activity decreases, the remaining APY distribution will reignite interest and promote recovery.
SYNC Token Design
The token economic model of Syncus is key to its mechanism design. The total supply of SYNC tokens is 4,186,731,698, aimed at ensuring that the interests of token holders are closely linked to the long-term success of the ecosystem. A transparent and fair economic model evolves in sync with the development stage of the Decentralized Finance platform.
Innovative Strategy Optimization Measures
Adaptive Tax Strategy
Syncus has implemented a flexible tax system that dynamically adjusts sales tax and cancels staking tax based on market fluctuations. During significant price increases, taxes are temporarily raised to reduce speculative trading; during stable market periods, taxes are reassessed and correspondingly reduced. This strategy also takes into account the current staking APY, ensuring that the tax policy remains fair.
Financial Treasury Mechanism

Goals and Vision
Syncus will successfully position its standards based on the benefits it brings to all stakeholders, rather than simply the value of the tokens. The short-term goal is to grow market share and create value for holders, while the long-term goal is to become a decentralized protocol backed by a treasury. In the future, Syncus plans to invest in the zkSync ecosystem, build its own product ecosystem, and create a truly yield-generating stablecoin.
Summary
Syncus represents the arrival of a new era in Decentralized Finance, drawing lessons from past experiences and moving towards a more stable and sustainable future. It applies game theory to transcend the traditional prisoner's dilemma model, proposing solutions that are more beneficial for DAOs and their long-term stakeholders. Through transaction taxation and treasury mechanisms, Syncus encourages positive behavior and avoids falling into a death spiral.
As more innovative DeFi projects emerge, the market's confidence in this field is expected to be revitalized. Syncus provides new ideas and a solid foundation for the long-term development of DeFi, and is likely to stand out in the new bull market.
