+
+### tl; dr
+
+<br>
+
+
+* public discussion around MEV started by [pmcgooohan](https://twitter.com/pmcgoohancrypto?lang=en) on [e/ethereum](https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/2d84yv/miners_frontrunning/), and it was formalized by [phildaiann et. al](https://twitter.com/phildaian)'s paper [flash boys 2](https://arxiv.org/abs/1904.05234). [here are the main essays and papers from the last years](history.md).
+
+<br>
+
+----
+
+### what's the future of mev rewards?
+
+<br>
+
+here are some ideas (and below are some of the projects working on specific problems and solutions):
+
+<br>
+
+#### mev burning
+
+* instead of having to deal with certain centralized actors, the network would put in place mechanism to burn mev (inspired by the burn mechanism found within EIP-1559).
+* targets the centralizing potential that mev can have on validators, but removing the economic incentives of mev for validators.
+* in this [ethresear.ch](https://ethresear.ch/t/burning-mev-through-block-proposer-auctions/14029/11) discussion, domothy recommends implementing an auction for the "right to build a block" on the network (happening at the validator level). network’s slot times would change from 12 seconds to 16 seconds to allow for the period of bidding on block proposal rights.
+
+<br>
+
+#### mev smoothing
+
+* in this [ethresear.ch](https://ethresear.ch/t/committee-driven-mev-smoothing/10408) and [this](https://notes.ethereum.org/cA3EzpNvRBStk1JFLzW8qg), francesco propose "Smoothing MEV means reducing the variance in the MEV that is captured by each validator, with the ultimate goal of getting the distribution of rewards for each validator to be as close as possible to uniform: a staker would then get a share of rewards proportional to their stake, just like with issuance."
+* while smoothing is not available as an in-protocol ethereum, the general principle can be seen via smoothing liquid staking pools. rocketpool operates a [voluntary smoothing pool](https://docs.rocketpool.net/guides/node/fee-distrib-sp.html#initializing-the-fee-distributor) see also [eigenlayer discussions](https://twitter.com/sreeramkannan/status/1561736268005814273). [mev-share from flashbots](https://github.com/go-outside-labs/mev-toolkit/tree/main/MEV_projects/flashbots) has also introduced a proposal for programmable provate orderflow that rewards users (through a matchmaking protocol between users and searchers).
+
+<br>
+
+#### mev sharing
+
+* while MEV smoothing/burning focuses on the end of the MEV supply chain and interactions between block builders and validators, mev sharing is in the beginning of the supply chain, for example with block builders that provide rebates (e.g. wallet-boost from blocknative).

+
+### tl;dr
+
+<br>
+
+* **flashbots** is a research and development organization focused on mitigating the negative externalities of current MEV extraction techniques.
+* after the release of MEV-geth (and later MEV-boost), much of the computation related to MEV was taken off-chain, by a side-relay that allows MEV searchers to communicate directly with nodes and other participants. This lead to a decrease in fee congestion pricing.
+* however, MEV “marketplaces” like flashbots, are quite centralized, since the vast majority of blocks flow through it.
+
+<br>
+
+##### bundles
+
+* bundle/transaction profitability is determined by: fee per gas used, priority fee, and direct validator payments.

+
+<br>
+
+* [mev-boost](https://github.com/flashbots/mev-boost#installing) is a middleware run by validators to democratize the block-building market with a implementation of [proposer-builder-separation (PBS)](https://ethresear.ch/t/proposer-block-builder-separation-friendly-fee-market-designs/9725) for proof-of-stake Ethereum. 
+* pbs was initially proposed by Ethereum researchers as a response to the risk that MEV poses to decentralization of consensus networks. 
+* [mev-boost+](https://hackmd.io/@layr/SkBRqvdC5) is an iteration that uses [eigen layer](https://github.com/go-outside-labs/mev-toolkit/blob/main/MEV_and_trading/staking/EigenLayer.md), a meta-slashing protocol on ethereum, to return agency to block proposers (allowing them to partition an execution block).

+* shutter plans to encrypt txs using threshold cryptography on ethereum and l2s.
+* shutter dao hires nodes called keypers, which generate cryptographic keys with which users encrypt their txs
+* keypers act as a set of nodes that encrypt and decrypt txs in a decentralized manner. txs are fully encrypted until the order of the txs in a block is finalized.

+### tl; dr
+
+<br>
+
+* on cosmos, txs are processed "first come first server", which prevents frontrunning and sandwich attacks but incentivizes searchers to spam the network when profitable mev opportunies are found.
+* skip is creating a marketplace where searchers can submit bundles for quicker execution at the cost of a fee (which is redistributed to validators and user).
