What is the problem? & Why are we solving it?

ShapeShift currently lacks support for trading in and out of ThorChain Synthetic assets, a feature exclusive to ThorChain. By integrating this capability, ShapeShift aims to establish itself as a comprehensive trading platform for users in the ThorChain ecosystem, particularly benefiting small-scale traders. This integration will enable these traders to efficiently gain exposure to high gas assets through synthetic asset trading, thus enhancing our TC ecosystem service offerings.
