Simple Summary
Replace the deprecated sCEX synth with a new sCEFI synth.
Abstract
In order to support the rebalancing of sCEX and introduction of new non-exchange elements into sCEFI, the old sCEX and iCEX tokens were deprecated in order to make way for a new sCEFI token using the upgraded feed from Chainlink.
Motivation & Rationale
SCCP-124 proposed the rebalancing of the sCEX index with two new centralized finance tokens - NEXO and CEL - and a rename into sCEFI which more correctly depicts the index. A rename in this instance is not valid due to the 150k of open interest currently held in the sCEX synth, as those holders did not buy into a sCEFI token. In order to correctly handle this rebalance, we either needed to a) keep sCEX around and create a new sCEFI token or b) deprecate sCEX and create the new sCEFI synth allowing them to trade into it. Thus the council opted for option b, and once sCEX is deprecated in SIP-169 this SIP can proceed.
Specification
Overview
