Prefix Consensus Unifies BFT Latency Throughput Robustness
Raptr's prefix consensus integrates leader-based low latency with DAG-based high throughput, resolving a core BFT trade-off for scalable systems.
Decentralized Sequencers with Encrypted Ordering Mitigate MEV Risk
A new protocol decentralizes ZK-Rollup sequencing via on-chain smart contracts and Transparent Transaction Encryption, cryptographically neutralizing MEV.
Ethereum MEV-boost Flaw Exploited to Steal $25 Million during Block Validation
The MEV-boost vulnerability allows block manipulation for front-running and asset redirection, compromising transaction integrity and validator trust.
Adaptive BFT Achieves Sub-Second Finality with Dual Resilience Thresholds
Mercury BFT autonomously optimizes consensus latency using a dual resilience threshold, enabling planetary-scale finality in under 0.4 seconds.
Active Block Producers Create Impossibility for Incentive-Compatible Fee Mechanisms
Formal analysis proves active block producers, driven by private MEV, fundamentally prevent simultaneous incentive-compatibility and welfare-maximization.
Dynamic MEV Rate Stabilizes Extractor and User Incentives
A novel EIP-1559-style mechanism dynamically regulates Maximal Extractable Value, balancing block producer compensation with overall network welfare.
Formal AMM Mechanism Achieves Strategy-Proofness and Eliminates Miner Arbitrage Profit
A new AMM design uses a constant potential function to process batched transactions, formally eliminating miner arbitrage and ensuring application-layer strategy-proofness.
Mechanism Design Eliminates AMM MEV Opportunities
A novel batch-processing AMM mechanism achieves arbitrage resilience for block producers and guarantees incentive compatibility in fair-sequencing models.
Formal MEV Certification Secures DeFi Protocols against Optimal Attacks
Mechanized formalization of MEV using the Lean theorem prover provides machine-checked proofs of extraction bounds, fundamentally securing DeFi protocol logic.
