We are excited to share the recent publication of our research paper, "Time to Bribe: Measuring Block Construction Market", a comprehensive analysis of the block builder and proposer landscape on Ethereum.
Working collaboratively with @HatforceSec , @lzhou1110 , and @KaihuaQIN , we delved into the intricacies of the PBS ecosystem, and explored its implications on the foundational blockchain structure.
Our investigation casts light on topics of vertical integration, essential trust assumptions, and the ongoing struggle against the centralizing tendencies of MEV.
We hope, this endeavor helps provide insight into how the dynamics of the PBS ecosystem shape and influence the blockchain space.
