Part 1. Treasure Maps (60min)
Each Roast we will invite MEV Ship research collective members to present insights from MEV-related research they are working on or interesting early stage proposals for community feedback.
Presentation 1: Ethereum block space market structure
- Navigator: Leo Zhang & Georgios Konstantopoulos Slides | Post (20min)
Roast Master (20min):
- Q1: How do you expect a switch to PoS would change the MEV landscape? PoS has predictable block times, proposers can see when they will be able to create blocks, and a proposer can try to create a block multiple times before they propose it. How would MEV extraction have to adapt?
- Q2: How would MEV extraction look like in a world with sharding or rollups, where instead of all transactions passing through a single proposer you have different proposers active in different "domains" at the same time?
Presentation 2: A survey of auction mechanisms for potential MEV auction designs
- Navigator: Surya Bakshi & Alejo Salles Slides (15min)
Presentation 3: A seal-bid MEV auction design: MEV-sgx
- Navigator: Robert Miller & Stephane Gosselin Slides (15min)
Roast Master (20min):
- Q3: Are there alternatives to trusted hardware for ensuring privacy and fairness?
