BNB Chain has formed the BNB Good Will Alliance to combat malicious MEV attacks. The alliance aims to improve the ecosystem through various initiatives.
Formation of the BNB Good Will Alliance
BNB Chain established the BNB Good Will Alliance after a BNB Chain DAO vote in February. A new BNB Evolution Proposal was suggested to combat malicious MEV.
Initial Steps Against MEV by the Alliance
The alliance promises to implement practices and standards through BNB governance and coding. The primary focus will be on preventing sandwich attacks. Companies such as BlockRazor and 48 Club have already implemented attack filters. A registry of goodwill MEV participants will be maintained on GitHub.
Complexities of MEV and Its Consequences
MEV issues arise when attackers use mempool transactions to manipulate asset prices. Proposals to eliminate malicious MEV are being considered. Not all MEV is considered malicious and can highlight inefficiencies in the consensus process.
The BNB Good Will Alliance aims to enhance the BNB ecosystem by implementing technological solutions to combat malicious MEV attacks. This effort marks the beginning of further exploration of innovative mechanisms in blockchain.
