Is a “private relay” really the same as a fully encrypted mempool?
Could sealing the mempool raise validator APR while erasing sandwiches?
Who eats the latency bill—and who pockets the upside?
Which milestones can land encryption on mainnet within 12 months? Or is it even possible?
During MEV Space 8 — Merits, Myths & Milestones of Encrypted Mempools, we have speakers:
Luis Bezzenberger — Head of Product, ShutterNetwork
Marc Harvey-Hill — Ethereum Core Developer, NethermindEth
Co-host: Benjamin Hunter — VP of Engineering, NasdaqBTCS
This MEV Space episode explores how encrypted mempool solutions like Shutter Network don't aim to eliminate all MEV (a common misconception), but rather focus on preventing front-running and providing crucial real-time censorship resistance. The discussion covers technical implementation challenges, the synergy with other Ethereum upgrades like Fossil and EPBS, and concrete roadmap milestones including out-of-protocol implementations and EIP 7793 for eventual L1 integration.
