+### tl; dr
+
+* proposed solutions to mev
+ - base layer: enforce random ordering, encrypt tx content (time-locked, commit-reveal), separate tx sequencing & tx execution
+ - infrastructure level: flashbots (mev geth), mistx, archer swap
+ - dapp level (rook, 0x rfq orders, gnosis protocol)
+* core ideas

+ - coincidence of wants (fully mev protected, max gas efficient, no lp fees)
