What happened
A community member disclosed a stale-price execution issue in SN8 (Vanta)'s market order system, arguing that execution prices based on a lagging book snapshot allowed near-riskless latency arbitrage, both on the Vanta trading platform and on SN89 (IQ). The team reviewed historical and live data across all subaccounts and miners and identified one flagged account, which it said had gained $200 out of roughly 5,200 trades processed. The two sides disagreed over whether lengthening the order cooldown (discussed at 5s, 15s, and 1h) would resolve the issue.
Community
The community member who raised the issue maintained that a cooldown would not fix the underlying problem, since the advantage comes from how the stale execution price is selected rather than from order frequency or hold time.
Official
The team said it would enforce a blacklist for pricing manipulation attempts and add hedge-detection logic as it rolls out new individual miner plans and Null Consensus.
