The rollup fee dilemma: lower your fees and get spammed by bots, raise them to deal with bots and price out users

Been years since I've made an MEV searcher but got to scratch that itch lately with... a Resy reservation bot. Surprisingly competitive?

One of the nice things that you get from using a TEE builder is fast, credible pre-confs. Could bring OP-Stack "block times" as felt by users down a lot.

Was on a podcast recently talking MEV, rollups, and what isn't being paid enough attention to in Ethereum research! Fun conversation, give it a listen: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0expIwKw9P23RmS6tXwNE9

What is the best way to level up from being "good enough" to "great" at Rust? Have written a bunch of code through a variety of projects and touched most parts of Rust by now. Obviously past the tutorial phase.

Couple of books gifted by the parents for my birthday. Excited for this stack, going to start with Natural Goodness - a “reply to Nietzsche.”

Enjoyed "Children of Time" - a long ranging, imaginative sci-fi novel. I was looking for a followup after reading The Three Body Problem trilogy and settled on this after also reading Hail Mary. I liked Three Body more, that was more "philosophy" and less "fantasy." But it was still enjoyable nonetheless.

It feels like Péter is trying to address MEV in some ways in this proposal with his prio fee ordering constraints. I'm not sure that's necessary or even desirable over a simple inclusion requirement. Simple inclusion is nice because it gives maximum room for builders, thus maximizing values for proposers.

https://gist.github.com/karalabe/4313ece67b528113ea72388ac2df25d8 Intrigued by this new CR proposal from Péter Szilágyi. First takes are: 1. I am worried that tying the fork choice rule to the mempool will not be a good idea. Mempools are brittle. 2. This lowers the value of blocks by adding constraints for builders
