MEV Space #7: Partial Block Building POV From Builders & Validators

How PBB reshapes the karma of validators, builders, and searchers

MEV Space brings together the sharpest minds in crypto to dissect the evolving MEV landscape.

Today, we're diving deep into one of the most critical questions shaping the future of Ethereum and MEV: How does Partial Block Building reshape stakeholder dynamics across the entire MEV supply chain, and what does this mean for the economic evolution toward REV?

From validators optimizing their APR to builders managing inclusion risks, from searchers adapting their strategies to protocols balancing competing interests—PBB is shifting power dynamics in ways we're only beginning to understand.

We've got an incredible lineup of experts representing each layer of this ecosystem, and they'll be challenged by some tough questions. Let's unpack how this technology is redistributing value and influence across the chain.

Expect sharp takes on:

  1. PBB mechanics: inclusion vs. execution auctions

  2. REV economics: who gains, who pays

  3. Pre-conf guardrails: stopping dark-forest 2.0

  4. Metrics that matter: latency-adjusted APR, builder HHI, bid variance.
