Workshop 001 : MEV and Execution Tickets 🔬

​Join us for an insightful online workshop exploring the cutting-edge research on Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) capture and decentralization in Ethereum's proposed Execution Tickets (ETs) mechanism.

​​This workshop will dive deep into the groundbreaking paper "MEV Capture and Decentralization in Execution Tickets". We'll unpack their economic model of Execution Tickets and examine how this mechanism could reshape MEV extraction in Ethereum.

​​Guest Speaker

​​Jonah Burian, senior analyst and MEV researcher, co-author of MEV Capture and Decentralization in Execution Tickets and many other great works.

​​Key topics we'll explore:

1. ​​The efficiency of MEV capture under various conditions

2. ​​The impact of risk aversion and capital costs on MEV extraction

3. ​​Centralization vectors in homogeneous and heterogeneous buyer scenarios

4. ​​The interplay between Execution Tickets and Proposer Builder Separation (PBS)

5. ​​Potential dominance of the ET market by large investors
