GMX <> MUX Collaboration

No problem! On the smart contract risk side, if traders open positions under the MUX native pool (MUXLP pool), token approvals are required when users try to use certain assets as collateral. For positions that will be routed to GMX, then related approvals will be required by GMX (traders can complete these approvals on the MUX Aggregator frontend).

And yeah we are currently working on marketing campaigns, and we sincerely want to increase the exposure in the broader trader community.

For the docs (not sure if posting links is allowed by the forum rules), here is the link if you are interested: Overview - MUX
For audits, the MUX Leveraged Trading Protocol smart contracts have been audited:
MUX Protocol - CertiK Security Leaderboard
The MUX Aggregator smart contracts audit is currently in progress

Agreed that leveraged trading aggregation can be uneasy to execute since it involves many metrics & mechanisms differences between each protocol on the market. For cross-chain related risks, the current MUX aggregator doesn’t have much of them, since both liquidity and users’ collateral won’t be bridged; all aggregated positions (GMX positions) activities take place on Arbitrum at this stage.

For co-marketing campaign, I think tweets from blueberries or AMAs can be great. We are starting to see the Aggregator directing volume to GMX already; on Dec 17th, $18M volume on GMX came from the MUX aggregator. These are definitely baby steps, but personally I would believe that as we gradually expand the exposure, the MUX aggregator can become a composable entrance that bring consistent trading volume to GMX.
