New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

@here Briefly turning on maintenance mode for a quick deploy to improve performance under periods of high load. Will post when complete.
New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

@here Maintenance complete. Enjoy trading!
New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

@here first leaderboard update is now live in https://docs.variational.io/
New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

@here Brief announcement regarding the trading competition:

1. **There is no reason to bot testnet.** We can and are easily identifying multiaccounts/bot farms, and will remove all accounts associated with them from any trading competition rewards or mainnet rewards.
2. **We're aware of an issue with liquidations.** TLDR on the issue is that if your margin no longer becomes enough to maintain your positions, positions will be liquidated relatively randomly instead of liquidating the worst-performing position(s) first. A fix for this will be going in ASAP.

Next leaderboard update coming soon 🫡 Thanks everyone for your participation so far!

New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

@here We are aware of the congestion/performance issues on testnet--specifically around certain users running into delays when linking new wallets.
These issues will be resolved in mainnet but this week we will perform some upgrades to help address them. We're seeing 20x higher load this competition than last. Keep testing! 🚀
New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

@here Turning on maintenance mode to investigate a few reports of pending accounts/orders taking longer than expected. Will issue updates when available.
