Transaction reordering mitigation refers to strategies and mechanisms implemented within blockchain protocols to prevent or reduce the ability of block producers to arbitrarily alter the sequence of transactions within a block. This practice aims to combat issues like front-running and sandwich attacks, which exploit predictable transaction ordering for illicit gains. It seeks to ensure fair and predictable execution of user operations.
Context
The issue of transaction reordering and its mitigation is a central concern in the ongoing efforts to address Miner Extractable Value (MEV) and enhance fairness in decentralized finance. Current approaches include commit-reveal schemes, batch auctions, and fair sequencing services. Future advancements aim to develop robust and cryptographically secure methods that eliminate the potential for malicious reordering without sacrificing decentralization or efficiency.
