Trade.xyz announces full compensation for the abnormal liquidation event of the Hynix contract and accelerates the reform of the pricing mechanism

Trade.xyz issued a statement regarding the SK Hynix contract price spike incident: On July 27 at 23:01 UTC, the marked price of SK Hynix tokens plummeted from $1,127.9 to $917.25, triggering a large number of long position liquidations. This price originated from an actual transaction captured by multiple independent data providers, with the external venue being a major pre-market in South Korea. Its oracle system operates according to established specifications, synchronously tracking prices from external exchanges, functioning "as designed" on a technical level.However, the platform acknowledges that user dissatisfaction with the liquidations triggered by this event is understandable, emphasizing that "market integrity is the core value of Trade.xyz." To address this, Trade.xyz has decided to cover all liquidation losses caused by this price anomaly on a one-time discretionary basis. Specific eligibility requirements will be announced soon, with compensation expected to be completed within a few days, but it clearly states that this decision "does not constitute a guarantee for similar situations in the future." At the mechanism level, the platform will accelerate the review of pricing methods— including reassessing the assumptions of reliance on external venues and giving greater weight to its own order book price discovery (its order book depth and signal strength have significantly improved compared to external sources) to more effectively handle tail events.

hot_img SK Hynix Q2 revenue reached 79.3 trillion won, a year-on-year increase of 257%, operating profit of 60.5 trillion won set a historical high but fell short of expectations

SK Hynix released its Q2 2026 financial report, with revenue of 79.3 trillion Korean won (approximately 52.9 billion USD), a year-on-year increase of 257% and a quarter-on-quarter increase of 51%; operating profit of 60.5 trillion Korean won (approximately 40.3 billion USD), a year-on-year increase of 557% and a quarter-on-quarter increase of 61%, with an operating profit margin of 76%; net profit of 93.9 trillion Korean won (approximately 62.6 billion USD), with a net profit margin of 118%, which includes a one-time gain of approximately 62.2 trillion Korean won from the sale of Kioxia shares. The cumulative revenue for the first half of the year has surpassed 100 trillion Korean won for the first time. Although the performance set a new historical high for a single quarter, it fell short of market expectations for revenue of 83.9 trillion Korean won and operating profit of 64.2 trillion Korean won, leading to a drop of over 5% in ADR after the financial report was released.The growth in performance is driven by the increase in both volume and price of high-performance AI products (HBM, eSSD, etc.). HBM4 has begun mass production and shipment in Q2, with plans to expand production in the second half of the year; samples of HBM4E have been delivered. The company has finalized long-term supply agreements (LTA) with about 10 customers, securing approximately 50% of sales volume. As of the end of the quarter, cash and cash equivalents reached 88 trillion Korean won, with a net cash position of 69.4 trillion Korean won. The company expects capital expenditures in 2026 to reach the upper end of the 40-50 trillion Korean won range and is advancing the mass production of the Cheongju M15X and the construction of the Yongin cluster.

Thailand's SEC accuses Bitkub executives of concealing a $50 million hacking loss and has filed a criminal complaint

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Thailand has filed a criminal complaint against the cryptocurrency exchange Bitkub Online and two former directors, Sakolkorn Sakavee and Thaweesap Rawan, accusing them of submitting false financial reports between May and October 2021. The case has been handed over to the Economic Crime Suppression Division (ECD) of Thailand for investigation, and the prosecution will decide whether to formally charge them.The SEC stated that Bitkub suffered a cyber attack in May 2021, resulting in the theft of 16 types of digital assets, with losses exceeding $50 million. Regulatory investigations revealed that Bitkub did not reflect the relevant losses in its daily net capital report Form DA 1 from May 10 to October 30, 2021. The SEC alleged that the relevant executives made false statements in the company's official documents, leading regulators to believe that customer assets were intact and that the company had not suffered financial losses. Bitkub subsequently completed the acquisition of alternative assets in late October 2021, but the SEC believes that the reports during this period constituted false statements.In a statement on July 23, Bitkub asserted that existing customer holdings are secure and accounts are complete. Bitkub stated that its co-founders purchased alternative assets in the same quantity and currency to cover the losses and claimed that the cyber theft incident was reported to law enforcement on May 10, 2021.

Michael Saylor: The biggest challenge for Bitcoin's future is not external competition, but the internal erosion of consensus rules

Strategy founder Michael Saylor stated that Bitcoin has gained market recognition, but the biggest challenge in the future is not external competition, but rather the erosion of consensus rules from within. He believes that Bitcoin's consensus rules are like a "constitution," determining property rights, scarcity, settlement mechanisms, and boundaries of power. Any modification of the rules for the benefit of specific groups is an infringement on the economic rights of all participants.He warned that Bitcoin is expected to grow a hundredfold in the future and become the infrastructure of the global capital market, while a single erroneous rule modification could harm markets, technologies, and economic freedoms that have yet to be born. Saylor specifically pointed out certain proposals, including BIP-110, arguing that they undermine the neutrality of the Bitcoin protocol by limiting effective paid transactions, introducing contract mechanisms, or expanding block capacity. He stated that although these proposals take different forms, they all weaken the scarcity of block space, increase network bandwidth and verification costs, expand protocol complexity, and introduce new security risks. At the same time, weakening the fee market will affect miners' income sources after block rewards continue to halve, thereby undermining the long-term security of the Bitcoin network. Furthermore, once a particular interest group is able to modify Bitcoin rules through certain means, other interest groups will follow suit, leading to long-term conflicts in protocol governance, capital outflows, slowed innovation, and deteriorating network security. Saylor called for keeping the Bitcoin base layer simple, neutral, scarce, and secure, leaving innovation to the second layer and application layer, promoting development through voluntary adoption rather than frequent modifications of the underlying protocol, and emphasized that protocol upgrades should be approached with extreme caution and only advanced when truly necessary to maintain the foundation for Bitcoin's long-term development.
