Variational Announcements

New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

Briefly turning on the maintenance flag for a small deploy of new fixes to testnet.

New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

Seeing elevated risk check error rates. Team is investigating. Turning on maintenance mode temporarily on testnet in the meantime.

New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

Fixed, all set again

New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

The Omni testnet is now available only to users with an access code. **Access codes can be obtained from our Discord (in the Omni Waiting Room channel), from other users (in the near future) and occasionally on Twitter.** Read the full article for info on testnet access codes: https://mirror.xyz/variational-io.eth/p6ET3cD-ilsG4bBROH_xGNKJ5wafHfdLdr-FokpKs2U

This update also further improved our automatic listing process, added clearer error messages, and more!

Happy trading!

New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

@here We are turning on maintenance mode for another update, which will enable some key new features in testnet ahead of our upcoming mainnet launch. Additional release notes will be published thereafter. *As with past large releases, all prior data will be cleared.*

New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

Hi Variants,

As you've probably seen, we'll be rolling Omni mainnet out in waves: bringing users off the waitlist based on their place in line, contributions to the community, ability to provide quality feedback on the product, and more. **As a reward for being early supporters of Variational, we're confirming that all users who have traded on Omni testnet prior to 1/20/25 will be granted access to the private Omni mainnet *at least one week* before the public mainnet goes live.**

Within this testnet participation group, users will still be brought in at different times. An account that has been trading on Testnet since August will likely be brought on before users who first connected their accounts to the platform in December. Details on the exact conditions for private mainnet selection will continue to be released as we progress through its launch and initial waves.

Thanks to everyone who's taken the time to play around on testnet, and we're excited to see you trading with real dollars on mainnet!

New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

Hi all, we're currently investigating the "Risk Check Failed: Internal Server Error" issue and have turned on the maintenance flag. Will post here when resolved! @here

New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

Another release was pushed to testnet today! The devs are hearing your feedback.

Notable changes:
1. Increased stability within authentication flow/portfolio creation.
2. General improvements to on-chain stability.
3. Improvements to reliability of TP/SL orders.

If you've been facing issues with creating a portfolio, this is the update that should fix your problems.

Happy trading!

New announcement from variational_lvs in Discord:

Completed! We expect better testnet stability and performance now. Will continue to work on a couple of fixes but unfortunately we are hitting the limits of Arbitrum Sepolia so we are limited by blocktimes there.

New announcement from mr_plumpkin in Discord:

Hello all, we are going into maintenance mode for a quick update. This will greatly improve performance. *All data will be cleared*.

New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

Small but exciting update: we've improved the waitlist system, and moved it here into our Discord server for simplification. **Find it and join the waitlist in the <#1328424600479989820> channel! **

Some notes:
- If you already joined the waitlist on the website, your position in line is safe. Filling out this extra form might help you jump forward in line though -- people who have filled out both waitlists will be prioritized.
- Each user can only submit the waitlist form here in Discord *ONCE*, and we *CANNOT* manually change your address if you want to change it later. Be sure the information you're filling out is correct before submitting it!

New announcement from variational_aks_09812 in Discord:

Hi all, we are investigating an increase in latency to some of our on chain calls. This is causing portfolio creations to take a lot longer.

We plan to put some remediations in place tomorrow. Thanks for your patience!

New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

Just turned maintenance mode back on to fix some issues with portfolio creation/deposits! Will keep you posted in this channel 🫡

New announcement from 0xmgb in Discord:

A new release has just been pushed to testnet! Here's the summary:

- Another round of optimizations + scaling to address high testnet load
- Transfer fees have been added to prepare for Mainnet gas costs ($0.1 flat fee per deposit/trade/withdraw as of now)
- Liquidations have been reworked to be more efficient
- Misc. QOL improvements

(Data has also been cleared, just like previous testnet releases. This has affected everyone, and we have saved prior activity per usual.)
