Decentralized block sequencing refers to a blockchain process where network participants collectively determine the order of blocks. This approach aims to prevent single points of control over transaction ordering, mitigating risks such as censorship and front-running. It relies on consensus mechanisms that distribute the responsibility for block production and ordering across many nodes. The goal is to ensure fairness and resistance to manipulation in the sequencing of data added to the ledger.
Context
The concept of decentralized block sequencing is a central topic in discussions about blockchain fairness and censorship resistance, particularly in light of Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) concerns. Protocols are actively developing and implementing mechanisms to distribute sequencing power more broadly among validators or proposers. News often reports on innovations in this area, seeking to enhance the neutrality and integrity of transaction inclusion.
