We’ve completed the first TEE-produced block in BNB Chain history, validated by HashGlobal.
Block #88246239 is a concrete step toward private on-chain execution.

We believe in 1 thing
If order flow is visible before execution, MEV will always be extracted.
The first block builder inside a TEE is now live on @BNBCHAIN
About/
TrustNet moves block building into a Trusted Execution Environment, turning encrypted order flow into a verifiable, privacy-preserving execution path.
1.1 End-to-end encrypted block building inside TEE Transactions and bundles remain encrypted throughout the block-building process
1.2 Fast lane for the winning bid
The bid winner enters a fast lane backed by remote attestation. Validators only need to verify the attestation to confirm the block-building result and secure transaction finality.
Why @BNBCHAIN ?
Apart from its thriving ecosystem, which processes over 4 million transactions daily, we believe we can BUIDL at least 4 privacy features that can dramatically improve BNB Chain users' experience.
• customized builder lanes for fast inclusion
• app-specific execution rails
• launch-specific blind auctions
• wallet-routed private execution
Encrypted mempools are necessary.
They are not sufficient.
If the mempool is private but the execution path is still leaky, discretionary, or unverifiable, the market structure problem just moves downstream.
Privacy at ingress.
Integrity at execution.
That’s the bar.

Ethereum needs an Encrypted Mempool and it needs it fast.
It's not just about stopping sandwiching. Encrypted mempools are how Ethereum matures its onchain markets.
I just published a post on why Ethereum needs encrypted mempools. Here are the core arguments:
The right question is not “can we eliminate MEV?”
Too vague. Too marketable.
The real questions:
• who can see the order flow?
• who can reorder it?
• who can prove they didn’t?
That’s where trusted execution starts to matter.

MEV bots pulled ~$24M from Ethereum users in 30 days.
Vitalik's response? A lot of new acronyms for a very old problem — encrypted mempools, FOCIL, ePBS. All designed to decentralize MEV, not eliminate it. validators still extract value from users, just by a more distributed set of bots.
But what if there wasn't any MEV at all?
On Stellar, validators earn no fees and transaction ordering is randomized, eliminating most MEV you see on Ethereum. And if someone did try frontrunning? the network can remove them - no fork, no staked capital required.
“Encrypted mempool” is becoming the popular answer to MEV.
Good.
But incomplete.
Because the problem is not only who sees the transaction first.
It’s also who handles it next.
Hey everyone — we’re aware of the large swap transaction circulating on X.
Based on what we’ve seen so far, there’s no indication of a protocol exploit or otherwise malicious behavior. The transaction executed according to the parameters of the signed order.
Our interface shows clear price impact warnings for swaps of this magnitude, as does Aave’s. We’re continuing to review the details and will share updates as we learn more.
Insane story...
Some guy tried to buy $50M of $AAVE on his phone, like 3% of the total supply, tapped through <INSANE SLIPPAGE AHEAD> warnings, ended up with only $40K of AAVE. Block builder made off with ~$40M, Aave refunds $600K of fees.
Net result, AAVE token is down. 💀
Excited to incubate @TrustNetTEE - bringing Jito BAM to @BNBCHAIN
TrustNet is crafting:
1. TEE-powered MEV mitigation protocol built specifically for BNB Chain, aiming to eliminate predatory MEV (e.g., sandwiches, frontrunning) through encrypted mempools and verifiable block building inside TEE;
2. Custom-designed pluggable TEE hardware (TNU) to overcome limitations of off-the-shelf TEEs (like SGX/TrustZone), enabling high-concurrency support for BNB's 0.45s block interval with unbounded memory and low latency;
3. TrustNet introduces blind auctions, Fast Lane priority, fair ordering, and tip distribution—boosting validator yields (~60%+ uplift) while protecting users and redistributing value fairly.

@BNBCHAIN goal is to become the new WallStreet.
But this can’t happen in today’s block-building environment, where the Nash equilibrium of profit-driven validators creates orderflow leakage, front-running, and unpredictable execution.
TrustNet fixes this by introducing an alternative block-building architecture that brings verifiability, privacy, and programmability to BNB’s transaction pipeline.
This is key to onboarding more sophisticated players on-chain and also enables developers to build CLOBs, perpetual exchanges, dark pools, and other financial primitives that require sequencing control, determinism, and privacy guarantees.
Without this, BNB cannot fully realize its long-term vision. WE NEED TRUSTNET
Solana's goal is to become the new Nasdaq.
