3/8 Like this one #MEV π€οΈ 's cost was over $12K and made $1,131.74 with a ROI of 9.09% through a sandwich #arbitrage , using ( $$WIND , $WETH , $USDC ). It put over $3.5M to use. eigenphi.io/ethereum/tx/0xβ¦
4/8 On the contrary, check this top π₯ͺ Attack: #MEV π€οΈ made $275.94 with a ROI of 2186.83% through a sandwich #arbitrage , using ( $LUNCH , $WETH , $CAW , $USDC ). eigenphi.io/ethereum/tx/0xβ¦
1/14 π€ $32.5M, that's searchers' revenue of #MEV on #Ethereum in Jan and Feb of 2023. In the same MEV supply chain, builders' income reached $67.21M, out of which validators took the most: $62.58M. This research shows you how the value flows thru the whole stream.
2/14 π Here is the big picture illustrating the benefits flow for different parties, specifically builders and validators under the current PBS scheme. One liner: MEV Accounts for 51.6% of Builders' Revenue, and Validators Stand as Top Beneficiaries.
Let's dive deeper. π΅οΈββοΈ
3/14 β‘οΈDuring the 2 months, EigenPhi identified 975,290 txs involving MEV payments. Our algorithm classified 64% of these transactions as originating from three types of MEV, which generated a profit of $7.3 million collectively and contributed $18.9 million toward MEV payments.

2/10 In the report, π§ we cover revenueπ°, frequency π, and volume of all the sandwich MEVs attacking @CoWSwap. On top of these, we also compare π₯ͺ's impact on different aggregators, DEXs & protocols. And we list all the top CoW Swap solvers under attack and many juicy dataπ
3/10 #Uniswap and @CoWSwap, which protocol is more resistant to π₯ͺattacks? In terms of π₯ͺ revenue for 2022, it's $0.13M from CoW Swap solvers. Compared to total fee revenue: $8.55M, sandwich attacks only accounted for 1.5%, one magnitude lower than #Uniswap.
1/9 The Chickens Are Clucking, and the Cows Are Mooing With Delight! Why? Because these CoWs are much hard to become the recipe of sandwiches. Our research shows that π₯ͺ MEV's impact on #CoWSwap is One Magnitude Lower Than on Any Other DEX.docs.google.com/document/d/1luβ¦
2/9 π₯ͺ frequency: in 2022, 1.9K π₯ͺ attacked CoW Swap's 239K trades, meaning sandwich MEV only accounted for about 0.8% of all the transactions on CoW Swap.
3/9 π₯ͺ revenue: Sandwich attacks extracted $0.13 million from CoW Swap solvers. Compared to CoW Swap's total fee revenue of $8.55 million, sandwich attacks only accounted for around 1.5%. Through CoW Swap, the % of attacks is one magnitude lower than #Uniswap.
Discover Q1 2023's most astounding MEV windfalls at our event "Mastering MEV: Unraveling the DeFi Mystery of Latency and its Impact" at #Consensus2023! Follow us to learn how the USDC Depeg created incredible MEV opportunities π
According to our tracking data, the USDC depegging in Q1 2023 led to a massive MEV revenue peak. Arbitrage contributed $40M, sandwich MEV extracted $46M, and liquidation took $2M from the market. π
MEV searchers generated over $89M in Q1 revenue, but a large portion (78.9%) was paid by sandwich attackers to builders for successful front-run/back-run transactions. Arbitrageurs and liquidators paid over half of their revenue to builders and validators. π°
This is an in-depth π§΅thread𧡠of the Euler Attack. We not only cover what happened during the attack, but also give our analysis on the beneficiaries and losers, whales affected, and addressed with net large flowsπ
Ethereum-based noncustodial lending protocol Euler Finance faced a flash loan attack on March 13. The attacker stole millions in $DAI, $USDC, $WETH, $stETH, and $wstETH.
The exploiters' addresses transferred $740.28 million to the Euler contract, while the Euler contract transferred $944.75 million to the exploiters' addresses. As a result, the exploiters gained $204.46 million from Euler Finance, aligning closely with third-party data.
2022 is a memorable year for DeFi. Terra Luna, 3AC, Celsius, FTX... Despite all these downfalls, MEV still contributed $328B, half the total DEX volume of $666B on Ethereum. This wonderful Twitter Space reflects on the past year and looks to the future. eigenphi.substack.com/p/highlights-fβ¦
πMetrics @christine_dkim: it may vary and rely more on analyzing smart contract activity and understanding how markets are moving. It's crucial to note that MEV is multifaceted, and one's interest may heavily depend on their focus.
