Encrypt the mempool.
In the future, everyone will be protected against malicious MEV & real-time censorship—by default. That's what Shutter is building toward.
Introducing the Universal Enshrined Encrypted Mempool EIP
A proposal to protect Ethereum users against front running, sandwich attacks, and real-time censorship at the protocol level 👇
We're proud to join the new Encrypt the Mempool Coalition!
Alongside industry leaders, we're pushing to integrate an EIP to encrypt the mempool in Ethereum's I* Hardfork - to stop toxic MEV & real-time censorship in a decentralized & credibly neutral way.
Join the coalition 👇
⚡️ One Week Left to Get Voting Power!
Big milestone: over 1.5M SHU in voting power has already been purchased toward Shutter Champions Melee 3! 🎉
Melee 3 will fund the best ideas for generating revenue for Shutter DAO 0x36, and voters decide which projects receive the $10,000 pool. Want a say? You have until August 10 to earn voting power.
🗳️ How it works:
Buy SHU now to August 10 and hold it through September 10. Every SHU you hold earns 1 voting power.
1⃣ Buy on SHU/USDC Uniswap v2 pool on Ethereum Mainnet https://t.co/wR9UAZ11d4
2️⃣ Or buy on SHU/USDC Cowswap pool on Ethereum Mainnet https://t.co/MnByrDIUyk
(you may need to manually add token 0xe485E2f1bab389C08721B291f6b59780feC83Fd7)

Excited to share "EIP Campaigns" - a simple and (lightly) gamified way for Ethereum users and orgs to credibly signal support EIPs in specific hardforks, and to fund our core devs.
Inspired by conversations with @devanshmehta, @kennyistyping, @trent_vanepps and others.
Contributor (@LoringHarkness) explaining encrypted mempools, covering the different types of toxic MEV, and how encrypting the mempool prevents them during last week's Business Marcomms meeting.
Join us for the next meeting on August 12th, 2026 👇 https://t.co/gFhoRuu8up
Did you know web3 acts as a real safeguard against authoritarian regimes? 🏛️
@ShutterNetwork's encrypted mempool initiative is working to bring threshold encryption into Ethereum's core protocol so that no validator, searcher, or block builder can see and exploit your transaction before it's included in a block. ⛓️
A huge thanks everyone who submitted to the bounty - giving feedback on the draft EIPs (8105 & 8184) to encrypt the public mempool on Ethereum!
We received several very detailed submissions and we’re still reviewing
We'll give an update on the bounty ASAP
The Encrypt the Mempool! Coalition (@encryptmempool) recently posted a 3 ETH (~$5,400) bounty on @poidhxyz for substantive feedback on the encrypted mempool proposals (EIP-8105 & EIP-8184)
Looking for technical critiques, attack vectors, implementation concerns, tradeoff analysis, and MEV/incentive analysis
If you're a core protocol researcher, dev, and you've been following encrypted mempool research, we'd love to see you dive in and add your perspective!
And if you're not a researcher or dev but want to support the mission, you can add mainnet ETH to the bounty to increase the prize pool 👇
Encrypted mempools
Encrypted mempools conceal transaction contents until ordering has been fixed, reducing front-running, sandwich attacks, toxic MEV and dependence on private order flow.
The Encrypted Mempool Coalition brings this work together through @encryptmempool.
The landscape includes @ShutterNetwork, EIP-8105 and EIP-8184/LUCID.
It's been 2 months since @thedaofund's Ethereum Security QF Round on @Giveth, and we're incredible grateful to have been included in the funding round 🙏
$1,165.97 in donations + 2.8579 ETH matching
A big thank you to the donors, platforms, and supporters who made this round possible @thedaofund, @quantstamp, @wintermute_t, @Giveth
The funds will support the "Encrypt the Mempool!" coalition ( @encryptmempool ), which we've been building with partners across the Ethereum ecosystem - the coalition already includes 23 organizations and continues to grow! https://t.co/MTIh14rYMV
The donated funds will be used to create educational and awareness content that explains encrypted mempools, why Ethereum needs one at the protocol level, and how the community can support its development and adoption
Our first funding round was a massive success!
Congratulations to all the Ethereum security projects collecting about $1.6M in total and to Giveth for organizing a fantastic QF Round.
What started as a 500 ETH matching pool ultimately grew to 637 ETH+ thanks to ecosystem contributions.
Shout out to @wintermute_t for adding $200K to the matching pool and to @Quantstamp whose early $50K donation helped kick off momentum for direct matching pool contributions across the round.
We also saw over $300k+ in direct donations to 134 projects!
Our hope is that one day using Ethereum will be safer than using banks. To get to that day we believe it will require a community effort. This round validates that approach.
Want a say in which projects receive $10,000 in funding? You have less than 2 weeks to earn voting power for Shutter Champions Melee 3!
The goal is to fund the best ideas for generating revenue for Shutter DAO 0x36
🗳️ How to Get Voting Power:
Buy SHU between now and August 10 and hold it through September 10 to receive 1 voting power per SHU
1️⃣ Buy on SHU/USDC Uniswap v2 pool on Ethereum Mainnet

The @ShutterNetwork arena is open again and we're here to chat all about it.
Join Shutter's @LoringHarkness & @OctantApp's @nicnode live on Wednesday at 12:00 PM ET.
They'll be talking about Melee 3 - Shutter's new round that's all about setting Shutter DAO 0x36 on a path to revenue generation, profitability, & expansion.
There'll also be an exciting announcement and some prizes for the attendees 👀
