The SynFutures team hints at or carries out an L1 upgrade, with the mainnet testnet scheduled to launch in October

BlockBeats News, October 2nd, On-chain derivative protocol SynFutures announced today the launch of a major protocol upgrade, introducing a fundamental chain upgrade with block times as low as 5 milliseconds. In the next phase, the protocol will focus on constructing a new generation of derivative infrastructure that combines top-tier trading experience with DeFi's open spirit. This upgrade focuses on three core aspects: millisecond-level execution speed, institutional-grade liquidity depth, and full on-chain settlement transparency.

Since its launch in 2021, SynFutures has accumulated over $300 billion in trading volume and has withstood multiple market tests. This upgrade will be driven by a brand-new high-performance modular engine, achieving single-digit millisecond order execution while integrating institutional liquidity to support large trades, all while maintaining complete on-chain transparency. To uphold its core principle of "trader-first, zero compromise," the protocol will also undergo a brand refresh.

SynFutures will begin internal testing in October, collaborating with core partners to refine the infrastructure in preparation for a full launch. The protocol emphasizes that the community will be at the core of the upgrade process and will introduce a series of activities in the future to invite traders to participate in the construction process.
