Fighting MEV in 2026: How MEV-Blocker, BuilderNet, and CoW Swap Race to Protect DeFi Before Ethereum's ePBS Resets the Game

Eighty percent of DeFi transactions now bypass Ethereum's public mempool. Three architectures — private RPCs, TEE-based block builders, and intent-based batch auctions — race to define MEV protection before the Glamsterdam upgrade resets the relay layer.

The $50M Quarterly Tax No One Is Measuring: Why AI Agents Are the Easiest MEV Prey on Crypto

Autonomous AI agents are leaking an estimated $50M per quarter to MEV searchers because the traits that make them reliable also make them predictable. Here's how the front-running problem became structural — and what 2026's defense stack looks like.

Ethereum's Glamsterdam Upgrade: How ePBS and EIP-7732 End the Flashbots Era and Rewrite MEV

Ethereum's 2026 Glamsterdam hard fork brings Enshrined Proposer-Builder Separation into the protocol itself. Here is what EIP-7732 changes, why it guts the Flashbots relay business, and what it means for the $500M MEV market.

Ethereum's Glamsterdam Hard Fork Explained: How Parallel Execution and ePBS Target 10,000 TPS

Ethereum's Glamsterdam hard fork targets H1 2026 with parallel execution via Block-Level Access Lists (EIP-7928), enshrined proposer-builder separation (EIP-7732), and gas repricing that could push L1 throughput to 10,000 TPS while cutting fees by 79%. We break down the architecture, the competition, and the risks.
