Breaking News from @TheAthleticFC: Manchester City have been found guilty on all but one of the 115 charges relating to breaches of the Premier League’s financial regulations, according to people briefed on the matter. https://t.co/PRhRzGIQAQ
We’re thrilled to announce our Series A with @usv bringing our total fundraising up to 15m. We hit it off with @fredwilson right away and we’re excited to benefit from his incredible experience.
Great question! It's tricky to know for sure, but tx indexing gives a good reference. We can assume top-of-block arbs backrun the previous block, while rest-of-block arbs are mostly blind attempts (though maybe not always!).
Drawing the line at 10 as a top-of-block index, ~90% of atomic arbs backran the prior block vs blind in January. So I think it's fair to say most searchers are competing over prior block arbs at the moment.
1/ Activity is picking up on Base. The chain surpassed $1bn daily volume in November, fueled in part by AI-agent and memecoin trading hype. As always, with more volume comes more opportunities for MEV searchers. But what’s the scale of MEV activity and value leaked?
7/ TL;DR MEV is a huge revenue source for Base, but it costs apps and users, especially LPs via LVR. As Base competes for memecoin and AI-agent volume, redistribution could improve the DEX experience, boosting liquidity and trading volumes.
6/ Apps could take matters into their own hands as well with solutions like Application-Specific Sequencing (ASS) and MEV Taxes, helping recapture value lost to the sequencer. They can then redistribute that value back to users, like LPs, to improve the overall experience.
