Uncertainty

Known unknowns

Reviewed gaps remain visible instead of being converted into false certainty.

synthetix_v2_v3_and_post_launch_lifecycle

The eUSD predecessor, nUSD launch, and nUSD-to-sUSD rename are now resolved. Synthetix V2/V3 boundaries, SNX-backed minting deprecation, 420 Pool history, debt-pool mechanics, deployment upgrades, and any successor or parallel stable assets still require dedicated source-backed lifecycle records.

Severity
Medium
Last checked
2026-06-23

Do not reopen the 2018 launch boundary without conflicting first-party evidence. Keep later protocol-version and debt-system transitions separate from the launch lineage.

sip423_governance_and_implementation

SIP-423 remains Vote Pending. Vote opening and closing dates, Spartan Council result, approval or rejection, implementation schedule, deployed contracts, and on-chain execution transactions are not yet established.

Severity

snapshot_claim_and_compensation_eligibility

The final snapshot block, eligible contracts and wallets, treatment of post-snapshot purchases, LP and vault receipts, DeFi deposits, Optimism Safe routing, claim opening and deadline, burn mechanics, maximum SNX issuance, lock start, vesting start, transferability, and frontend or jurisdiction restrictions remain unresolved.

420_pool_staker_exit_and_debt_treatment

Final handling of each 420 Pool position, debt-backed SNX, debt-free SNX, returned sUSD, early debt repayment, cooldown, accrued and undistributed rewards, four-year continuation lock, one-year vesting, and any alternative USDT compensation remains subject to approval and implementation details.

depeg_market_price_and_execution

The canonical market low, exact duration, Ethereum and Optimism price divergence, pool reserves, TVL, route, block, spot price, and executable prices for 1,000, 10,000, and 100,000 sUSD remain source-specific. User screenshots are investigation leads and are not canonical price evidence without route and timestamp verification.
