Lido on Ethereum: Call for Relay Providers

Daniel here from bloXroute.

Glad to work with Lido. Honored to be one of the first two relay providers. Salute to Flashbots at the same time.

At bloXroute, we will provide three types of MEV relays for Ethereum Mainnet, in order to serve the various needs of different validators.

publicly available – Yes!
publicly listed & maintained – Yes!
open source – Planning to open source in 1-2 months.
transparent about what (if any) transaction or address filtering they enforce – Yes! See below for more explanation.

Here are the definitions and the difference between the three different relays:

  1. Max profit: Relay that provide blocks with all available transactions/bundles with no filtering.
  2. Ethical: Relay that provide blocks that have no frontrunning bundles. bloXroute tries its best to filter out MEV bundles that execute strategies like generalized frontrunning and sandwiching.
  3. Regulated: Relay that provide blocks with all available transactions/bundles except the ones sent from/to wallet addresses that are sanctioned by OFAC.

Those three relays are live and ready for validators to register. You can find more details and instructions on how to connect to our relays at our MEV Relay Instructions for Validators - bloXroute Documentation
