# The Butane Platform Users interact with Butane's synthetic assets through the platform by creating and managing CDPs. The main actions on the platform are: * Creating CDPs by depositing collateral and borrowing an amount of synthetic tokens * Closing a CDP by repaying its debt and withdrawing locked collateral * Adjusting a CDP by changing the synthetic amount (minting more or burning a portion of the debt), altering the locked collateral (depositing and/or withdrawing tokens), or both * Liquidating another user's unhealthy CDP and claiming a portion of their collateral * Staking held synthetics in the system to earn savings ## Action Composability Engine Butane introduces a novel innovation by allowing for multiple actions to be completed in a single transaction through a wholly interoperable mechanism. All of the above actions can be effected within a single transaction, on multiple CDPs, and across multiple synthetics. This maximizes efficiency and ensures that operations on Butane can be fully atomic. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
