General

What is the new token called?

The new token is called $SYNT. This name change reflects our rebrand to Synternet and aims to enhance token recognition and alignment with our updated identity and vision.

Why migrate to another ERC20 token?

For security reasons, it is industry standard to separate migration and bridging processes. The migration to the ERC20 $SYNT token is essential before bridging $SYNT to Cosmos, as it ensures alignment and addresses the supply differences between the hard-capped $NOIA and the inflationary Cosmos-based $SYNT token. By first migrating from $NOIA to ERC20 $SYNT, we maintain a 1:1 ratio and establish a secure basis for the bridging event scheduled to begin on July 29th. On that day, staking will go live with rewards paid on every block on Cosmos. Until then, $NOIA staking rewards will continue.

On which blockchain is ERC20 $SYNT deployed?

The new token is deployed on the Ethereum Network. Please note that the ERC20 $SYNT token acts as a stepping stone into the Cosmos ecosystem.

What is the new ERC20 token contract address?

Contract information is available here.

Is the new $SYNT ERC20 token contract audited?

All migration and bridging smart contracts have been successfully audited by Certik. Over the past few months, we have collaborated closely with Certik to identify potential issues. We have successfully addressed all findings, and the formal report will be released in the coming weeks and will be available here.

Where can I buy & sell the new ERC20 token?

You can use the following exchanges to trade ERC20 $SYNT: Gate.io, Huobi, and Uniswap. Kucoin will start supporting $SYNT soon after. Please pay attention to exchange announcements and instructions.

Where can I find the old $NOIA staking portal?

The $NOIA staking portal is available here.

Why did the team not announce the new ERC20 token in advance?

To protect $NOIA holders from potential scams and fraud attempts, we chose not to disclose this information prematurely.

How much time do I have to migrate?

The token migration will be live for a total of one year, until June 30th, 2025.

What happens after the migration period?

Will I have only one year to bridge to Cosmos too?

The June 30th, 2025 deadline only applies to the migration, the bridge will stay open indefinitely.

Can I connect my Ledger or other hardware wallet?

You are able to connect any wallet that supports integrating with Metamask. Find instructions for Ledger here.

Is there a minimum or maximum amount $NOIA needed to migrate?

There is no minimum or maximum amount for token migration.

Are there costs associated with migrating my $NOIA tokens to the new ERC20 token?

While there are no direct costs for the migration itself, Ethereum gas fees apply.

What Happens to $NOIA

What happens to my tokens in CEXs?

Users will have to manually migrate their $NOIA tokens if they are held in self-custody. On the following exchanges, $NOIA will be exchanged automatically: Gate.io, Huobi, Kucoin. Please pay attention to exchange announcements and instructions.

What happens to my tokens in the Uniswap LP pool?

Please withdraw your $NOIA tokens from any liquidity pools and migrate them. New liquidity pools for the $SYNT token will be available on Uniswap.

What happens to my tokens that are staked?

Your $NOIA tokens will continue to accumulate rewards until July 29th. Afterwards, they will need to be unstaked and then migrated to the new $SYNT token.

What happens to my $NOIA staking rewards?

Your $NOIA staking rewards will continue to accumulate until July 29th, with the unbonding period being 7 days. On July 29th, the unbonding period will be reduced to zero. Due to the 7-day unbonding period, removing your stake between July 22nd and July 29th might result in your tokens being locked up when the bridge to Cosmos opens on July 29th. Our recommendation is to either unstake before July 22nd or on July 29th when the unbonding period is at zero.

What happens to my $NOIA on Ledger?

You will have to manually migrate your $NOIA to ERC20 $SYNT. If your Ledger is connected to Metamask, you will immediately see your $SYNT. If not, you will need to add $SYNT via Zerion (on your Ledger: Discover > Zerion). For more information, please reach out to Ledger’s support team.

Will the staking rewards be paid out in $SYNT?

Staking rewards will be paid out in $NOIA until July 29th after which the staking program will relaunch on the new Synternet Blockchain. More information about the staking program will be provided at a later date.

$SYNT Tokenomics

Will this affect the token price? What is the new price of the token?

The $SYNT token is migrated at a 1:1 ratio.

Does the token supply change?

While the circulating token supply will not be affected immediately, the token will become inflationary to accommodate the Proof-of-Stake consensus protocol utilized by the Synternet Blockchain. Learn more about the specifics of the tokenomics here.

Does the token utility of the ERC20 token change?

The token utility of the ERC20 token remains unchanged until bridged to the Cosmos-based Synternet Blockchain.
