Here is deep dive on the methodology we developed for detecting cross-chain arbitrages in our recent paper. In this post, we detail our approach, which utilizes data from Allium, and discuss our findings while attempting to reimplement it using Dune. collective.flashbots.net/t/detecting-cr…
As trading migrates on-chain, cross-chain arbitrage is poised to become the next frontier of MEV⚡️ We study this mechanism with a profit-cost model to pinpoint when to hold vs bridge and a year-long measurement that reveals landscape, execution dynamics, and market structure🧵

More transactions can be included in Ethereum now 🤔
Built by BuilderNet 🫡 Excited to support scaling Ethereum!
During the weekend I finished building a little app I call "zkLabeler" (zklabeler.netlify.app). It's a zkTLS powered labeler for BlueSky. It's a cool application of zkTLS, and a fun learning experience of BlueSky's take on decentralization.
I like the examples you collected. Great efforts :) @DeFiHackLabs @realScamSniffer @SlowMist_Team
amazing database for research 🥳
We've pulled together some of the most interesting research problems in MEV in the new Flashbots Research Problem Database ⚡🤖 It includes completed work, early ideas, WIP, and requests for research in Incentives, cryptography, PBS, TEE, data, and more! flashbots.notion.site/21f6b4a0d87680…
looking forward to more decompilers for research😎
🔓 99+% of Ethereum contracts are closed-source. We built an LLM that decompiles their bytecode — and exposes what’s inside. Readable. Auditable. Battle-tested. Not a toy. Try it now 👉 evmdecompiler.com 📄 arxiv.org/abs/2506.19624 w/ @mercuryheavens @lzhou1110…
MEV spam is interesting 👀
Today, we introduce a new thesis: MEV has become the dominant limit to scaling blockchains. Spectacularly wasteful onchain searching is starting to consume most of the capacity of most high-throughput blockchains. This is a market failure we can no longer ignore.
very interesting measurement 🤣
Glad to announce that I will also be presenting my recent measurement --- ICLR Points: How Many ICLR Publications Is One Paper in Each Area? --- at @IEEESSP 's short talk session, starting from 4.40 pm on May 13 (Tuesday).
