Episode notes

i think any contract could be built in a way where the rules for access he met are gaided by either somthing lik a vi v df orson, like a sequen. If you me that it is notglike mie carte, that suppresses like price discovery, then you would actually discover the tuee true price of m v. This is also, vasigly the first time that you can measure how high amy v even is in an like market pased way....

Today, I brought on Dan Robinson and Georgios Konstantopoulos, who are both research partners at Paradigm. Together, we explore the topic of MEV, or “Miner Extractable Value”.

Blockchains like Ethereum have this dirty little secret that, while in most regards they are very decentralized, the ordering of transactions within a single block is actually completely in the hands of a single miner. They can insert their own transactions, rearrange those of users, or even censor them completely.

MEV describes how much value a miner can extract from users and other miners by using these powers to their advantage.

If you’ve never looked into MEV before, I think you’ll be both shocked and fascinated by the complexity and sophistication of the war that’s raging inside Ethereum’s memory pool. Enjoy
