Relative Batch Fairness is a concept that aims to ensure transactions within a group are ordered equitably, without giving undue advantage to any specific participant. This principle applies to blockchain systems where transactions are processed in batches or blocks, seeking to minimize the ability of block producers to reorder transactions for their own financial benefit. It focuses on ensuring that transactions submitted around the same time are processed in a sequence that is not arbitrarily manipulated, promoting a more level playing field for all users. The goal is to reduce the impact of Miner Extractable Value (MEV) within a given block.
Context
The discussion around Relative Batch Fairness is a critical component of broader efforts to mitigate MEV and enhance the integrity of decentralized transaction processing. A key debate involves designing practical mechanisms that can achieve a high degree of fairness within blocks without significantly compromising network performance or introducing excessive complexity. Future developments include proposals for various batch auction designs, commit-reveal schemes, and other cryptographic methods to ensure that transaction ordering within a block is determined by objective criteria rather than by the discretion of the block producer.
FairDAG introduces a two-layer DAG-based consensus to decouple block proposal from final ordering, fundamentally constraining adversarial MEV manipulation while boosting throughput.
