Price impact on the Single-Token Pools for BTC and ETH on Arbitrum has been set to zero, effective immediately.
All trades on the BTC-USD [BTC] and ETH-USD [WETH] markets now benefit from zero price impact. To take advantage of this, select the BTC or ETH market in the trading interface, then choose the appropriate single-sided pool below the leverage slider.
Zero price impact is being introduced in these specific markets following a thorough risk review for market size and depth. The parameters will continue to be fine-tuned over time. This may include extending zero price impact to other markets, or adjusting the levels of price impact.
This new feature allows Liquidity Providers to instantly transfer their GM liquidity to other GM pools without paying any buy or sell fees.
All pools with the same underlying assets are eligible for SHIFT:
🔹 WETH-USDC liquidity can be freely moved between all 7 pools based on this liquidity pair: the ETH, DOGE, SHIB, XRP, LTC, NEAR and ATOM pools.
🔹 BTC-USDC liquidity can be freely moved between the BTC, STX and ORDI pools.

SHIFT is also the underlying technology of the developed GLV Vault, which is currently being audited.
Liquidity deposited to the GLV vault will be dynamically shifted to the GM markets with the highest utilisation and demand. This optimises capital efficiency for Liquidity Providers, while simultaneously boosting market depth for GMX traders.
GMX is in the unique position to offer liquid markets for SOL/USDC and WIF/USDC on the Arbitrum blockchain. With healthy asset-backed markets bootstrapped, GMX users can now trade SOL and WIF on margin as well as spot.
The necessary SOL and WIF tokens were transferred over from Solana via @Portalbridge_, which is built on Wormhole's multi-chain technology platform.
Right now, the SOL/USDC market on @Arbitrum already offers ~$25M in liquidity, with another 700K available to GMX users trading SOL on @Avax.
And traders have been eagerly capitalising on this deep liquidity. The SOL market often has the highest utilisation of all V2 markets, making it an attractive option for liquidity providers.
Portal Bridge has also facilitated GMX's new market for WIF on Arbitrum. Thanks to the active @Dogwifcoin and @Solana communities, this market is already attracting substantial trading volume.

Everyone is invited to contribute to the GMX project. As a community-driven protocol, GMX would not be where it is today without the valuable input of its many community contributors.
And users can support GMX in multiple ways. You can do so by spreading awareness of the products GMX offers, building useful community tools, or referring friends. You can do so as a GMX DAO delegate (on Tally), articulating the interests of other tokenholders and voting on their behalf.
You can also do so as a member of one of the three governance committees, if these proposals pass. Helping to steer and safeguard a specific aspect of the protocol that matches your expertise.
To learn more about the proposed Listing, Governance and Security Committee, and what their activities would be, see the three respective threads on the Governance forum:
The 'Buyback GMX and Distribute GMX' proposal, which would change the current revenue distribution model, has passed a Snapshot vote. It now moves on to an on-chain vote by the GMX DAO on Tally:
