Bundle Generation Rule

Definition ∞ A bundle generation rule specifies the criteria by which multiple individual transactions are grouped into a single unit for blockchain processing. This rule dictates how transactions are aggregated, ordered, and presented to validators or block producers. It is a critical component in systems designed to optimize transaction throughput or mitigate certain types of front-running. These rules influence the efficiency and fairness of transaction inclusion.
Context ∞ The current situation regarding bundle generation rules involves ongoing research and development to balance transaction efficiency with network decentralization and censorship resistance. Debates persist over the optimal methods for creating transaction bundles, especially concerning builder-validator separation and the prevention of malicious manipulation. Future advancements will likely concentrate on programmable rules that adapt to network conditions and user preferences.
