While it might sound complex, MEV is actually fairly simple from a big picture perspective, but of course the nitty-gritty technicals of how it works are far more nuanced.
MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) refers to the extra profit validators can make by controlling the order of transactions in a block.
In the context of Chorus One as a staking provider, our winning MEV strategies help validators optimize their operations and earn greater yield.
By understanding and managing MEV, Chorus One ensures that validators can maximize their earnings while maintaining network integrity and fairness for users.
If you'd like to take a deep dive, Chorus One's pioneering MEV research led to the design of , an in-house, optimized Ethereum MEV-boost client that increases our MEV rewards by optimizing the way we interact with the transaction supply chain.
In a recent pilot study with Adagio, we were able to generate 4.75% additional MEV rewards on Ethereum.
This ensures that our customers receive optimal MEV yields consistently, rather than solely during periods of high volatility or rare occurrences.
In adherence to transparency principles, our research is entirely accessible to the public on .
