The collateral being used to wager on cryptocurrencies on Synthetic Exchange is 100% notional and follows a structured value:&#x20;

&#x20;1 $CRT `pegged` to 1 $USD \[keeping a fixed notional value at all times].

1. creating `LONG` (higher) price exposure&#x20;
2. creating `SHORT` (lower) price exposure
