Chainlink is committed to helping the blockchain and DeFi industry manage the challenging and multilayered dynamics of onchain value extraction from oracle reports, now being called Oracle Extractable Value (OEV).
Chainlink has been working on solving the complex problems around…
MEV + 4337 can create new flywheels for dapps. Formula is simple:
use MEV + Paymaster to subsidize new users -> more users creates more state contention (MEV) -> more MEV subsidizes new users.
In fact this isn't exclusive to MEV, any fee can feed this flow (LP, Royalty, etc).

detailing a design for Composable Block Building on SUAVE using meta-bundles and some associated challenges! If you're interested in hacking on things like this let me know, we will soon make it publicly accessible!
The year is 2100: you go to submit your intent to your rpc-agregator aggregator where a network of orderflow aggregators represented by AI agents simulate planetary warfare over execution rights to your order. But before you hit submit…
The largest obstacle towards collaborative block building is the effective "pipeline stall" that uncertainty around top-of-block arbitrage creates. I propose a sketch for "State Lock Auctions" which leverage visibility to enable optimistic construction of partial blocks. 👇🏻⚡️🧵

One of the biggest inspirations for SUAVE architecture has been this paper, '"Synchronous and Alternating Choruses in Insects and Anurans: Common Mechanisms and Diverse Functions'"
Cynicism extremely in vogue right now… you can literally transact with people on the internet with less trust than has ever been required!! Software is being open sourced every day!! Github is full of people collaborating who have never met!! We need more positivity ❤️❤️
an open source bundle merging test set and environment is the highest leverage thing you could develop in the block space market today - who wants to build it? dm's open
Wrote up some thoughts with
@LouisThibault87
on the unbundling attack last week as well as what future eclipse attacks may look like and some mitigations!
It actually seems that a lot of searchers are sending to many different builders. It’s hard to track what is exclusive vs private this way bc 1 bundle to another builder and that searcher is no longer labeled “exclusive”, and the reverse, an acct w/ only 1 txn is “exclusive”
What if we told you that more recently, over 30% of the content of blocks that are crafted by the top builder entities looks like private order flow?
We're digging in as we speak, sharing some preliminary numbers below 👇
What a year, first rollups aren't real and now eip1559 & target gas limit aren't real? what's next, is someone going to tell me RANDAO isn't "truly random"? Or that the block extra data field doesn't accurately identify a block builder? I can't take anymore devs plz make it stop!
Fun to watch the blocks roll in and see what % private they are! Ethernow + Parsec explorer drops this week are a huge upgrade to real-time ethereum infra!
Introducing – a transaction explorer that allows you to see what is happening at the core of Ethereum, in real-time. You can now observe Ethereum’s beautifully engineered inner workings. It feels alive… and maybe even hypnotic.
🛳️New upgrade to Dreamboat🛳️ : validator registration caching.
This enhancement significantly reduces CPU usage for validating registrations, dropping total request time by multiple orders of magnitude. 🥳

I personally agree as someone running a builder-relay. Part of the problem is its pretty expensive to run a relay. I was hoping to help by making our OSS relay dreamboat extremely easy to operate (1 proc, no redis, etc) but no ones biting.
Artificial lifeforms are super fascinating to watch.
These self-organizing, self-replicating, “lifeforms” emerged from a continuous time cellular automata system called Flow-Lenia.
Lenia is a family of CAs generalizing Conway’s Game of Life to continuous space, time and states.
The Ministry of Foreign Intent Control blocks your request, “Error: The Hive Mind has outlawed this Intent, please see you’re closest Intent alignment center”
Way more interest in this than expected! Going to try out a small trial with a handful of people then will try to expand quickly, if still interested please register interest here
