Simple Summary

This SCCP proposes to deploy the below markets on Perps V3 on Base and Arbitrum.

Market	minimumInitialMarginRatio	initialMarginRatio	maintenanceMarginScalar	skewScale	maxMarketSize	maxMarketValue
GOAT	5%	2.459	0.317	20M	5,000,000	3,000,000
MOODENG	5%	1.588	0.317	50M	17,000,000	3,000,000
SAFE	5%	1.211	0.317	3M	500,000	500,000
CAT	5%	1.575	0.328	250B	35,000,000,000	1,000,000

Aside from the above parameters , the perps markets will have the following configurations as well:

• TakerFeeRatio: 10 bp (5 bp during the promotional period)
• MakerFeeRatio: 0 bp
• maxFundingVelocity: 9
• flagRewardRatio: 3 bp
• minimumPositionMargin: 50
• lockedOiRatio: 0.5
• maxLiquidationLimitMultiplier: 1.5
• maxLiquidationPD: 5 bp
• endorsedLiquidator: "0x11233749514Ab8d00C0A5873DF7428b3db70030f"

Abstract

The parameters configurations description is as follows:

• initialMarginRatio is a scalar applied on the minimumInitialMarginRatio to determine the minimum initial margin required to support a given portfolio of positions
• maintenanceMarginScalar is a scalar applied on the initialMargin in order to obtain the maintenanceMargin. When traders fall below the maintenance margin, they are liquidated.
• skewScale is the scaling factor of the relevant market in the underlying currency for computing price impact and funding rates
• maxMarketSize is the max market value of the relevant market in the underlying currency
• maxMarketValue is the max market value of the relevant market in USD
• maker/taker fees pertain to fees charged when trading
• maxFundingVelocity is the main parameter that allows to nudge funding rates
• minimumPositionMargin is the minimum margin required
• lockedOiRatio is the multiplier that determines the minimum amount of perp collateral required to back a given perp market
• maxLiquidationLimitMultiplier is a parameter that rate limits liquidations. It is applied on the sum of maker and taker fees with a liquidation rate limit being triggered if pd exceeds that value
• maxLiquidationPD is the minimum pd that triggers a reset of the liquidation capacity
• endorsedLiquidator is a liquidator address that can bypass the rate limit
• the collateral liquidation penalty is the penalty paid to the liquidator for executing a liquidation

Motivation

The more options traders have via Synthetix Perps, the less likely they will move their margin to other trading venues to trade markets we don't provide.
