Welcome @Bookof_Eth to the coalition! 📖 The Book of Ethereum spreads the word of Ethereum, helping make technical information understandable. We can Encrypt the Mempool, togETHer 🤝
We're proud to join the @encryptmempool Coalition 🔐 Alongside industry leaders, we're pushing to encrypt Ethereum's mempool in the next hardfork - ending sandwich attacks, frontrunning, and real-time censorship at the protocol level. $1.8B+ drained from users since 2020. The mempool shouldn't be a hunting ground. Join the coalition 👇 🔗 encryptedmempool.org

Encrypting the mempool mitigates toxic MEV. Join us in 30 minutes to learn why 👇
🔐 Today: Mitigating MEV on Ethereum | X Livestream Ethereum's public mempool has long created opportunities for front-running, sandwich attacks and other forms of harmful MEV. Beyond the impact on users, these challenges also raise important questions around institutional adoption, trust and Ethereum's ability to support mainstream financial activity. Today, STRATO joins @ethdaily ,@encryptmempool and @Bookof_Eth for a live discussion on these challenges and the work being done to address them. 🎙️ What we'll discuss: • How MEV impacts Ethereum users and institutions • The evolution of Ethereum's public mempool • Why mitigating harmful MEV matters for adoption • The goals of the Encrypt the Mempool Coalition • Progress, challenges and next steps 📅 Today, October 16 ⏰ 14:00 UTC | 16:00 CEST 📍 Live on X Join us for the conversation and bring your questions! 🔗 xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1aKbdErqN…

Congrats to Aptos for the mainnet launch of their encrypted mempool It's awesome to see chains adopting encrypted mempools, and Ethereum's is in progress! 💪
Encrypted Mempool is now LIVE on Aptos mainnet. Users can opt in to keep pending transactions encrypted until their block is finalized, lowering the risk of MEV attacks. → Opt-in, one transaction at a time → The function called and its inputs stay encrypted until execution → Senders and fees remain visible

If encrypted mempools only offer temporary transaction privacy, then why are they important? A thread 🧵👇 1/ When an Ethereum transaction sits in the public mempool, it is visible to searchers who scan for MEV opportunities and submit transaction bundles to extract that value.

2/ A searcher can observe the transaction, simulate its execution against the current state, and submit competing transactions or manipulate ordering before the original transaction executes. Encrypted mempools provide the privacy that closes this transaction visibility gap.

3/ The transaction can remain fully transparent and auditable after execution, while preventing adversaries from exploiting information before execution. Therefore, the goal isn't permanent privacy; it's moving transaction visibility to a safer point in the execution cycle.
