SlowMist: The core reason for the GMX attack is that the global short average price of GMX v1 can be manipulated, causing the GLP price to be maliciously inflated for arbitrage.

7 hours ago

On July 10th, the Slowmist Chief Information Security Officer (@im23pds) tweeted that "The underlying cause of the GMX attack is that in handling short positions, GMX v1 promptly updates the global short position average price. This global average price directly influences the calculation of the total assets under management (AUM), resulting in the manipulation of the GLP token price." The attacker took advantage of this design flaw by using a Keeper to activate the timelock.enableLeverage feature when placing orders (a prerequisite for creating a large short position). Through reentrancy, they successfully established a large short position to manipulate the global average price, artificially raising the GLP price in a single transaction and making a profit through redemption.

The current mainstream CEX and DEX funding rate indicates that the market is not unanimously bullish.

On July 10th, according to Coinglass data, the current funding rates of mainstream CEX and DEX show that the market is only in a neutral state and not entirely bullish. The funding rate for BTC contracts on the Binance platform has returned to 0.01% (it was previously below 0.01% for a period), and on some exchanges, certain trading pairs have even shown a negative rate (indicating a greater number of short positions). The specific funding rates for mainstream coins are shown in the attached image.

It is used to adjust the cost or profit of traders holding contracts to keep the contract price close to the underlying asset price. When the funding rate is 0.01%, it represe

If Bitcoin surpasses $114,000, the mainstream CEX cumulative short liquidation pressure will reach $1.389 billion.

On July 10th, according to Coinglass data, if Bitcoin manages to break through $114,000, the cumulative short liquidation strength on mainstream CEXs will reach $1.389 billion. Conversely, if Bitcoin drops below $108,500, the cumulative long liquidation strength on mainstream CEXs will reach $1.994 billion. BlockBeats Notes: The liquidation chart does not display the exact number of contracts to be liquidated or the precise value of the contracts being liquidated. The bars on the liquidation chart actually represent the significance of each liquidation cluster in relation to neighboring liquidation clusters, that is, the strength. Therefore, the liquidation chart shows to what extent the price of the underlying asset will be influenced when it reaches a certain level. A higher "liquidation bar" indicates that when the price reaches that point, a more intense reaction will occur due to a liquidity cascade.
