I should clarify that this isn't my first month doing MEV. Just my first month where it's my sole source of income. I've been at this since July of last year, and didn't make a penny until September. It took hundreds of hours of work to get here

if you can’t sift through the shit the flash bots discord is the best place to learn MEV / arbitrage trading. my second tip is to assume anything they say in there is a lie and always test the opposite advice you’re given

ok book recommendations. first i’ll start with what i’m currently reading:
- Option Volatility & Pricing

expectation: i’ll do arbitrage trading to give myself the freedom to study defi and work on new protocols

there are very few defi frontends that don't look like a backend engineer was forced to build it because they didn't have anyone else to do it

A lot of you guys found me from my tweet in January sharing my MEV profits. I wanted to share the opposite side of the coin this month.
Without sharing specific numbers June was the first month that I wasn’t profitable. In fact less than $10k in revenue.
MEVs hard

On one hand I think it’s funny that Stripe chose Polygon for payment integrations but on the other hand, I can’t think of a chain that makes better sense. Maybe Solana? But no EVM chains make sense to me honestly..

Hi Ser, I saw you do MEV will you mentor me? I have no coding experience, in fact i’ve never used a computer. I’m sending this through my brothers nintendo ds. Let’s build!!!
Also my entire family will be murdered by the cartel if you don’t give me this opportunity.

First Desk: Improved my dev skills 100x, wrote ultra profitable MEV bot, making life changing money
Second Desk: All the code I write is shit, no longer profitable trader

People who primarily use Cosmos chains: do you use them because you think Cosmos is going to win? Or because it's what you're used to?
What is the bull case for Cosmos? No ideological stuff, what is going to drive users from other ecosystems to Cosmos?

If I’m being honest I think greed is going to make crypto just as bad as our current systems. I’m here on the off chance that I’m wrong about that though.

my life path so far
- start college as a finance major because my rich girlfriends dad at the time worked in finance
- switch majors to marketing because money is fake
- graduate and get a dev job (??)
- quit job to dedicate my life to actual fake money

personally my goal is to use mev to build up enough money to be able to pursue interests and projects without needing to factor in a financial incentive for myself
almost every MEV enthusiast builds an entire trading system to extract value for 3-6 months, then their alpha runs out, then they quit and build a project instead

Excited to announce that Ethena has onboarded BTC as a backing asset to USDe
This is a crucial unlock which will enable USDe to scale significantly from the current $2bn supply

I joined the Skip team last month and my first contribution was a nice shiny new website.
Looking forward to building MEV solutions for the Cosmos ecosystem with them 🫡
New website launched! 🥂
Take a look:
Hopefully much cleaner - thoughts?
