TechFlow news: The dYdX community has passed proposal DIP-22 via on-chain voting. This proposal suggests increasing the maximum funding rate (8h) from 0.75% to 4%, and fixing a data bug in the V3 perpetual contracts.
According to the proposal, changing the maximum funding rate will improve trading experience and reduce the need for manual intervention through margin adjustments. Furthermore, the data bug referred to in the proposal exists in the current version of dYdX's StarkEx Cairo code. A vulnerability is triggered only under specific circumstances—when a trade causes the collateral balance to become exactly zero (after all fees are paid), and for accounts that still have open positions. This could result in users being unable to withdraw funds once the trading platform is frozen, with neither dYdX nor StarkWare able to assist affected users.
