On 27th September 2024, In our ongoing efforts to maintain robust market stability and ensure liquidity across platforms, we recently completed a strategic operation to support OKX with 15 million pGMT. Here is a breakdown of the steps involved in this process: We have initiated the transfer by sending 15 million eGMT from our treasury to Binance. Subsequently, we withdrew 15 million pGMT from Binance and forwarded them directly to OKX. To balance our holdings, we withdrew 15 million sGMT from OKX and transferred them back to our treasury.&#x20;

Note: sGMT = GMT on Solana pGMT = GMT on Polygon eGMT = GMT on Ethereum
