#GM!
1/ What is Maximal Extractable Value (#MEV)? How does it become an integral part of the #blockchain network? How does MEV work? All of your questions will be answered in our latest #visualguide.

#Ethereum #cryptocurrency #TheMerge $ETH #DeFi Image
2/ In the blockchain transaction ordering process, the block producers are responsible to aggregate, selecting, and reordering transactions in the #blockchain network based on the given economic incentives thus creating opportunities for #MEV Image
3/ #MEV refers to the maximum value that can be extracted from a block more than the standard block reward and gas fees by including, excluding, and changing the order of transactions in a block Image
4/ In practice, a large portion of #MEV is extracted by independent participants (The Searchers) that deploy sophisticated value extraction strategies and compete with each other to have their transactions included in a given block Image
5/ There are several examples of value extractions strategies for #MEV:
- Gas golfing
- Generalized front-running
- Back running
- Time-Bandit Attack Image
6/ #MEV is also being utilized for several conditions:
- #DEX Arbitrage
- Liquidations
- Sandwich Trading
- #NFT MEV Image
7/ #MEV efficiency/ incentive create lucrative opportunities and competition in a limited block space resulting in a congested network and exorbitant gas fees. MEV also can destabilize the consensus and lead to blockchain reorganization. Image
8/ Several mitigations have been proposed to reduce #MEV negative externalities, such as:
- Chain architectures (@arbitrum)
- Encrypted transactions (@chainlink)
- Private/ stealth transactions (@bloxroute)
- MEV Auctions (#FlashBots, @optimism) Image
9/ #FlashBots is a research and development organization that aims to bring transparency to MEV activity, democratize MEV and distribute the fair redistribution of #MEV revenue to prevent the existential risk caused by #MEV.
@thegostep @hasufl @bertcmiller Image
10/ #FlashBots work by connecting up The Searchers and The Block Producers together through their sealed-bid block auction mechanism. The transactions relayed to the Flashbots server will not be broadcasted to the public pool which lessens the negative #MEV externalities. Image
11/ Proposer/ Builder Separation (#PBS) is splitting the block construction role from the block proposal role in #POS #Ethereum. However, it is not an immediate requirement for #TheMerge to complete.

@VitalikButerin @drakefjustin @fradamt @ObadiaAlex @phildaian Image
12/ #PBS integration will be disruptive for #Ethereum and #MEV because of these reasons:
- Encourage block diversity
- Competition to create 'The Best Block'
- Non-economic agenda can be accommodated by the block proposers
- Drive Ethereum towards modularization Image
13/ As the #PBS isn't required immediately after The Merge, the community put efforts into a project called MEV-Boost. #MEV-Boost streamlines and utilizes the post-merge MEV process that aligns with PBS.

1/ Data Totalitarians

→ We find ourselves in a precarious situation, like a ticking bomb, because our technology, applications, and entire digital infrastructure rely on centralized cloud computing.

→ Centralized computing carries various risks, including:

> Single points of failure
> Data privacy and security concerns,
> Increased downtime risks
> Lack of transparency
> Dependence on central authority, and
> Monopolization of data

→ We must find a different solution to avoid the disastrous consequences of this data totalitarianism.Image
