GMX V2 Perps

Description sourced from DeFiLlama's protocol metadata; teams submit their own copy when listing.

GMX V2 Perps is published as a versioned release inside the Gmx protocol family. Releases inside the same family typically share governance, brand, and large parts of the audit history, but each version can run materially different contract logic — a release labelled v2 or v3 is not just a UI refresh. Newer versions inside a family typically launch with their own audit cycle and parameter set, so do not assume the previous release's safety record carries over without checking the linked audit reports.

Fork lineage and parent-protocol relationships are tracked by DeFiLlama for security and audit-history attribution; a fork inherits the upstream design but not necessarily the upstream audits or governance.

GMX V2 Perps is a Derivatives protocol where traders open leveraged, perpetual, or option positions priced off oracle feeds and settled in collateral held by the contract. It is deployed across 3 chains, including Arbitrum, Avalanche, Botanix. The codebase has been independently audited (1 report on file). DeFiLlama tracks 1 historical event for this protocol since 2025.

GMX V2 Perps operates on 3 networks (Arbitrum, Avalanche, Botanix), keeping its surface area narrower than chain-agnostic peers. Roughly 100% of its on-chain value sits on just three networks (Arbitrum, Avalanche, Botanix), so a fault on any one of them would affect a large slice of users. Price discovery relies on 2 oracle providers (Chainlink, Chaos), which diversifies the data-feed surface but also expands the set of third parties users implicitly trust. Only one audit report is currently listed; users should weigh that against the protocol's TVL before depositing significant amounts.
