I got KWENTA Tokens, where can I swap them for SNX?

Updated over a week ago

Kwenta (KWENTA) is being unified into the Synthetix system. The migration process allows you to convert KWENTA into SNX under a vesting schedule.

How the migration works & key details

  • A swap interface is now live for migrating your KWENTA to SNX.

  • Vesting begins November 12th, with a 3-month cliff + 9-month linear unlock for the migrated tokens.

  • Even if you migrate later, your tokens will vest on that same schedule relative to the original timeline.

Step-by-step: Migrating KWENTA to SNX

  1. Unstake your KWENTA

    • Go to the Staking section on the Synthetix staking UI.

    • Unstake any liquid KWENTA. (Escrowed KWENTA will become liquid through vesting.)

  2. Vest escrowed KWENTA

    • Go to the “Escrow” tab.

    • Select all escrow entries and vest them (this converts them into liquid KWENTA in your wallet).

  3. Deposit KWENTA via the migration site

  4. Claim your SNX as it vests

    • Once deposited, the SNX tokens are subject to the vesting schedule (3-month cliff, then linear unlock over 9 months).

    • You’ll return to the migration site to claim the vested SNX gradually.

If you have any problems, do not hesitate to contact an agent.

⚠️ Important: You cannot swap KWENTA for SNX instantly at full value, it’s governed by the vesting schedule.
