Simple Summary

This SIP proposes the implementation of a fee capture mechanism for staking interfaces. It will allow any interface that integrates Synthetix Staking to specify a percentage of staking rewards to be captured.

Abstract

In order to encourage the development of multiple staking interfaces and promote Synthetix staking integrations into more platforms, a fee capture mechanism will be implmented at the contract level. This will allow an interface to assign a referral code to each staked position ensuring a percentage of fees earned by the staker are diverted to the interface continuously.

Motivation

The time and effort required to integrate Synthetix staking is fairly high making it is challenging to recover the cost of this effort. Implementing a fee capture mechanism will encourage new staking interfaces to be developed as well as ensuring staking is integrated into more interfaces like mobile wallets and portfolio tracking sites like Zapper.
