Transaction Ordering Decoupling

Definition

Transaction Ordering Decoupling refers to the separation of the process of executing transactions from the process of determining their final order within a blockchain block. This architectural approach aims to mitigate issues like Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) by preventing validators or block producers from front-running or manipulating transaction order for personal gain. It seeks to create a fairer and more predictable transaction environment. This separation enhances network neutrality.
