About Flashbots:
Established in 2020, Flashbots is a research and development organization addressing the challenges posed by Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) to smart-contract blockchains, starting with Ethereum. The organization’s focus is on building products to decentralize public blockchains, redistribute MEV, and empower users. Collaborating closely with the community, Flashbots ensures its products have a positive impact, are secure, and can be used at scale.
Our Impact:
Since its inception, Flashbots has significantly influenced the cryptocurrency world. The Flashbots Auction, launched in alpha in January 2021, was swiftly adopted by nearly all Ethereum miners. Before Ethereum’s Merge in 2022, Flashbots introduced MEV-Boost, a temporary solution for out-of-protocol proposer-builder separation. MEV-Boost has been adopted by over 90% of Ethereum validators and has played a significant role in the Ethereum PoS ecosystem. Currently, Flashbots is progressing with the introduction of MEV-Share as part of its journey toward SUAVE.
Our Research:
Flashbots Research operates independently and aims to become the hub of MEV research. In addition to in-house analysis, Flashbots Research collaborates with external researchers through an external grants program. The research arm continues to publish groundbreaking research on MEV, covering topics such as cross-chain MEV, EIP1559 and MEV, the impact of ETH2 on MEV, SGX and privacy, and more.
