# Synth Wrap

{% hint style="warning" %}
This documentation is a work in progress!
{% endhint %}

Whenever an underlying asset has an reputable representation on-chain it can be enabled for direct wraps between the [Kopio Asset](/kopio-docs/fundamentals/kresko-assets.md), which is called a Synth Wrap.

Similar to how the [vault](/kopio-docs/fundamentals/kiss.md#vault) enables capital efficient entry point for stablecoins through [ONE](/kopio-docs/fundamentals/kiss.md), the synth wrap enables a capital efficient entry point for underlying assets with on-chain representations.

## Use Cases

This enables accounts to directly trade with them using the [SCDP](/kopio-docs/fundamentals/cdps/scdp.md) and liquidators can perform [liquidations](/kopio-docs/fundamentals/liquidations.md) without opening a separate [ICDP](/kopio-docs/fundamentals/cdps/icdp.md) position.

## Examples

Simplest examples of this would be allowing Ether or Wrapped Ether to be directly converted into a Kopio Asset representing Ether.

## Fees

The wrapping is configurable with a separate fee percentage for both directions which is similar to the open and close fee in the ICDP.
