GMGN co-founder Haze announced on the X platform that compensation payments to users affected by a recent MEV attack impacting 729 transactions have been completed, as of October 27, 2025.
This rapid response underscores GMGN's commitment to user protections amid rising MEV threat activities within the Solana ecosystem, avoiding potential trust and liquidity issues.
GMGN co-founder Haze publicly stated that the team completed compensation payments for users affected by the MEV attack. "The team has completed compensation payments to users affected by the MEV attack. GMGN suffered a MEV attack 48 hours ago, affecting 729 transactions. The team has calculated the losses and distributed compensation to the relevant user wallets yesterday."
This incident impacted 729 transactions on the Solana network 48 hours ago. Compensation assessments were made and payments distributed the following day.
Community reactions have varied, focusing largely on the transparency and effectiveness of GMGN's response. Haze reassured stakeholders through candid communication, stressing GMGN's long-term commitment to security enhancements.
Community and Market Reactions Post-Attack
Did you know? In April 2025, GMGN accounted for 30.8% of MEV sandwich attacks on Solana, emphasizing the protocol's susceptibility prior to this incident.
Solana (SOL) has a current price of $203.94 and a market cap of $112.08 billion. The token has experienced a 6.12% rise over 24 hours and a notable 9.09% increase over the past week, reflecting resilience post-attack.

Ongoing MEV attacks on Solana raise questions about security frameworks and compensation strategies. While short-term compensation measures are crucial, enhancing network security remains a pivotal challenge for sustaining market trust.
