Metronome Synth is a multi-collateral synthetic-asset protocol where users mint msUSD, msETH, msBTC and msOP against productive on-chain collateral and swap between synthetics with zero slippage.
Deposit ETH, mint msUSD debt against it, and watch the collateralization ratio sweep toward liquidation.
Liquidation triggers when the ratio falls below 125% (the floor implied by ETH's 80% collateral factor). The hand sweeps left as you mint more or ETH falls.
Drop the ETH price and the same debt becomes under-collateralized — the ratio drifts toward the red band.
Your msUSD is debt backed by over-collateral. The collateral is worth more than the synth you minted — keep the ratio in the teal band so a price drop can't push you below the liquidation floor.

Synthetic-asset protocols typically force users into a single collateral type, illiquid debt markets, and slippage on swaps between synthetics.
Metronome accepts a broad set of productive collateral (including Vesper yield-bearing receipts) and enables zero-slippage oracle-priced swaps inside its Synth Marketplace, with cross-chain msAssets via LayerZero.
Productive-collateral CDPs + zero-slip internal synth swaps + LayerZero-OFT cross-chain synthetics in one stack, governed by a 9-year-old crypto team (Bloq / Jeff Garzik).
