The GMX DAO community has addressed key questions around the distribution plan for the recovered GLP funds. A follow-up vote is expected to go live on Snapshot tomorrow, Thursday.
Once the results of this vote are in, the distribution of the funds to users will begin.
GMX introduces a Single-Token Pool for the ARB/USD market:
🔸 ARB/USD [ARB-ARB]
This single-asset GM pool enables users to supply 100% ARB liquidity to the ARB/USD market, allowing them to earn yield while avoiding impermanent loss.
The new liquidity pool complements the existing ARB/USD [ARB-USDC] pool.
There was a security vulnerability in the GMX V1 codebase that was disclosed. GMX V1 forks were also safely notified.
We would like to recognise the actions of 0xDF3340A436c27655bA62F8281565C9925C3a5221 in this recovery. A potential exploitable amount of $42 million belonging to GLP holders was secured.
After payment of a $5 million bounty to the user, the remaining funds are now safely in the GMX Security Multisig.
Contributors are working on a proposed distribution plan for presentation to the GMX DAO and will share more information shortly.
The GLP pool of GMX V1 on Arbitrum has experienced an exploit. Approximately $40M in tokens has been transferred from the GLP pool to an unknown wallet.
Security has always been a core priority for GMX, with the GMX smart contracts undergoing numerous audits from top security specialists. So, in this hands-on-deck moment, all core contributors are investigating how the manipulation occurred, and what vulnerability may have enabled it.
Our security partners are also deeply involved, to ensure we gain a thorough understanding of the events that occurred and minimise any associated risks as quickly as possible. Our primary focus is on recovery and pinpointing the root cause of the issue.
Actions taken:
Trading on GMX V1, and the minting and redeeming of GLP, have been disabled on both Arbitrum and Avalanche to prevent any further attack vectors and protect users from additional negative impacts.
Scope of the vulnerability:
Please note that the exploit does not affect GMX V2, its markets, or liquidity pools, nor the GMX token itself.
Based on the available information, the vulnerability is limited to GMX V1 and its GLP pool.
As soon as we have more complete and validated information, a detailed incident report will follow.
