Thesis Drop: MEV has become the dominant limit to scaling blockchains. Our data reveals that the dominant paradigm of MEV extraction has moved to on-chain searching, and is starting to consume most of the capacity of most high throughput blockchains. 🧵 👇

Absolute bombshell. Solving MEV is an imperative to scaling Ethereum, even across L2s.

Flashbots continues to be at the tip of the proverbial spear in deeply understanding how MEV impacts users and blockchains, and how the negative externalities of MEV (in this case, massive spam) can be mitigated. Fantastic blog and findings! Excited for them to fix it for us all.

On trading - A lot of people view trading as a form of speculating / gambling - people say "crypto is just speculation" Trading is a much more fundamental primitive to society - markets are a dominant force in the world and direct much of human activity DeFi's mission of

what if direct scaling efforts (reducing latency, increasing blockspace) are useless without dedicated mev auctions that address spam? and what if mev auctions are the limiting factor for how much blockchains can meaningfully scale to support real user activity?

New post on EthResear.ch! Going multidimensional - an empirical analysis on gas metering in the EVM By: - misilva73 🔗 ethresear.ch/t/22621 Highlights: - Current gas metering in Ethereum is simplistic and can lead to inefficient use of resources. -

Built on the foundation that all order flow should be treated equally.

Technically, Ethereum is a spreadsheet

so far the easiest way for me to explain blockchain imagine excel, but single global state

🧵 CoW Protocol just got a major upgrade. Say hello to Fair Combinatorial Batch Auctions (FCBAs) - the smartest, fastest, and fairest way to trade on-chain. It's not just an upgrade. It's a whole new standard for DEXs. Here's what you need to know: 👇

⚡️BREAKING: Rollups just got faster, more customizable, and safer. This month’s Flashbots L2 Demo Day shows what happens when you let top-tier engineers loose on open-source block builder software. We’re building the future of L2s. Here’s what’s new 🧵

Come to the first BuilderNet community call! We'll be talking about the path to permissionless nodes and decentralizing BuilderHub, among other things. June 25 @ 4pm UTC

Wholly convinced that mastering the fundamentals can never be outsourced. AI will bait many to fall into this trap, though.

Phishing attacks are getting more and more sophisticated.

As trading migrates on-chain, cross-chain arbitrage is poised to become the next frontier of MEV⚡️ We study this mechanism with a profit-cost model to pinpoint when to hold vs bridge and a year-long measurement that reveals landscape, execution dynamics, and market structure🧵

Giving a talk tomorrow on our work on MEV and scaling! Tune in!

Awesome data event moderated by my teammate danning.eth⚡️🤖

Protocol & MEV Day at ZuBerlin is a must-watch. I wish I were there this year, but following the live stream is the next best thing!

This understated technical blog post explores a novel and super interesting primitive: proving that a software instance "forgets" some data. This makes it safer to share private data! Only possible with TEEs and "ephemeral sandboxes" Read below

It is, but not for the reasons you think. Restaurants often use lower quality ingredients, but prepare them well and use lots of sauce. You get the full gamut of ills - low nutrient count, lots of microplastics, indiscriminate use of herbicides and pesticides, etc. The true
