Is multi-block MEV a thing? Insights from 2 years of MEV Boost Data
11-15, 09:55–10:05 (Asia/Bangkok), Stage 2

Multi-block MEV describes MEV that arises from one party controlling several consecutive slots. Currently, it is discussed as a potential blocker for several prominent mechanism designs. We analyzed two years of MEV boost data covering more than 5 million slots to investigate historical patterns of it. Amongst other findings we see less multi-slot sequences occur than randomly feasible however that payments for longer sequences are higher than average.

I am doing research on Ethereum protocol-level economics and incentive design. Currently, I mainly working on APS (esp. Execution Tickets) and multi-block MEV. Previous work included data analysis on blobs and the effects of EIP-4844 on Layer 2s. In my former life I co-founded a tradFi business automating the M&A process for SME companies.
