OKX Unleashes Bold Compensation Plan Amidst Unprecedented Contract Price Turmoil!

During this brief window, several contract targets on the platform experienced unexpected price anomalies. After a thorough investigation, it was determined that the issue stemmed from an anomaly within the platform’s price limit service. This disruption resulted in certain contracts being unable to execute orders as usual, leading to price disparities and, consequently, causing some users to experience liquidation or trigger stop-loss orders.
