Darkforestbots generative art collection presents MEV extraction practices in Ethereum. Starting with Sandwicher bots collection based on real data of 2021
Hello, Twitter world! We are Darkforestbots generative NFT art collection that presents MEV extraction practices on Ethereum. With this post, we are starting an interesting journey to present a real-world problem of Ethereum and other similar smart contract-based blockchains.
🔷 The revealed information then allowed the rogue validator to insert their own “sell” before their victims, effectively lifting any arbitrage profits. In short, the MEV bots got outmatched by a hacker's better MEV bots.
The bug has since been patched by Flashbots."
#PeckShieldAlert The stolen funds (~25M) are mainly located in 3 addresses, 0x3c98...8eb (~20M), 0x5b04...5b6 (~2.3M) and 0x27bf...f69 (~3M)
0x84cB...8D1, 0x88Fd...7EE, 0x94e0...87C, 0x0429...46C, 0xEafc...D1B, 0xCaCE...975, 0x5b04...5b6 and 0x27bf...f69 these 8 addresses were originally funded from #Kucoin
🔷 Quote from @bankless newsletter: "bug in MEV-Boost allowed the rogue validator to execute their attack by intentionally double-proposing a block which revealed the hidden transactions in the block bundle fed to them by the Flashbots relay.
Big changes:
* The Verge✅ is not just about "verkle trees", it's about "verification". Endgame: fully SNARKed ethereum
* The Scourge🧟(new): ensure reliable and fair credibly neutral transaction inclusion, solve MEV issues
* Single slot finality as stage 2 Merge🐼 milestone
Very important and alarming fact that happened few days ago about #NFTMEV, which has created systemic risks for Solana`s blockchain. Read more in @CoinDesk article https://t.co/nnmwmSpJDx
Our https://t.co/UWEii4SMMH unconference will hit like no other.
I'm presenting twice, but every item on the agenda is a must-watch.

🟦 In a pursuit to capture profitable MEV opportunities, miners with sufficient mining power can initiate a time bandit attack, reorganize the last few blocks and extract profits from MEV, thus destabilizing consensus and creating existential risks for Ethereum network.
🟦 Darkforestbots fourth collection is presented by liquidation bots . MEV extracted during the liquidations can be categorized as benign MEV.
🟦 Bots execute liquidation transactions on cryptocurrency borrowing and landing platforms (like Aave). #Mev#Liquidation#NFT
🟦 Liquidation bots fight with each other to capture this opportunity and make profit. Their activities are necessary for efficient crypto Lending market functioning.
