### tl; dr
* relays are a bundle propagation service that receives bundles from searchers, simulate each txs, and forwards them to block producers.
* validators can use relays to outsource their block production to entities specialized in extracting extra revenue.
* on ethereum post-merge, relays act as trusted auctioneers between block proposers and block builders, validating blocks received by block builders and forwarding only valid headers to validators/proposers.
* this ensures validators cannot steal the content of a block builder’s block, but can still commit to proposing this block by signing the respective block header.
* when the proposer chooses to propose a block, the proposer requests `getHeader` to receive the highest bidding, eligible block header from the relay.
* upon receiving the header associated with the winning bid, the proposer signs it and thereby commits to proposing this block built by the respective builder in slot `n`.
* the signed block header is sent to the relay, along with a request to get the full block content from the relay (`getPayload`).
* finally, the relay receives the signed block header (`signedAt`) and publishes the full block contents to the p2p network and proposer. when peers see the new block, validators assigned to the slot can attest to it.
