Synthetix mentioned on May 14 that it might purchase Derive in a token alternate deal, pricing 1 SNX token to 27 DRV tokens, which might worth Derive at round $27 million, pending approval from each communities.
Synthetix technique lead Ben Celermajer instructed Cointelegraph that different neighborhood considerations have been the three-month token lock-up interval and the deal’s worth, a part of which Synthetix tried to deal with with no lock-up for holders of lower than 1 million DRV.
“While we understand the commercials did not resonate with all community members, a number of holders from both communities believed the deal was fair and acceptable,” he mentioned.

Another consumer, “AlvaroHK,” known as the deal “difficult to justify,” as they claimed that Derive generates extra income than Synthetix, and there was no clause within the settlement to cease Synthetix from “printing millions of new tokens and keep diluting us.”

“Why this information is not disclosed when asked about it? It will dilute an additional 60% off the value of the offer made to Derive,” they added.
Derive, which Synthetix started in 2021 as Lyra, operated as a decentralized choices protocol however remained a part of the Synthetix ecosystem.
It finally rebranded to Derive and took steps to function independently from Synthetix, equivalent to shifting away from utilizing Synthetix’s sUSD stablecoin and liquidity.
