In this post I cover:
- How the Ethereum transaction process originally worked
- Why MEV led to the creation of new transaction pathways
- How new applications are designed to minimize MEV

Thanks to @ralexstokes for suggesting this topic and discussion about it

- Methods for bypassing the public mempool via private transactions (private RPCs, OFAs)
- The role of L2s and future Ethereum upgrades (ILs and ETs)
- Why the public mempool will only have a niche role for censorship resistance
