Whitehat satya0x reported a critical vulnerability in @wormholecrypto on Feb 24 via Immunefi.
The bug was quickly patched, no user funds were affected, and satya0x received a $10 million payout from Wormhole, the largest bounty payout on record.

It is a small coup that fairness is so associated with "fair ordering" / time based ordering
There is no single notion of "fair." These protocols privilege a different set of actors and MEV extraction is a different "game" to play on them

There's no such thing as a "closed-source decentralised exchange". Interested to hear your thoughts - am I missing something? Here's mine: hrpr.uk/2022/02/10/closed-so… #Cardano #ADA

New write-up: Assuming Temporary Staking Control of Funds Sent from Cardano Validator Scripts (MuesliSwap, SpaceBudz Market, jpg(dot)store affected) medium.com/adamant-security/…

In reality SPOs have always full control over transaction ordering, not exposing the API of the tx management is just wishful thinking, in reality you can always patch the node, hook up debugger to it or find some other way, to order, prioritize, or exclude transactions in block.
Replying to @julienmatsuno
Tiered-fees was never meant to address scalability. It's purely an optional feature block producers could opt into as a way to enable a different order of transactions
Harper retweeted
I would rather buy on an open-source marketplace than on any closed source one. Reason one I can verify what is going to happen, reason two I know the dApp is contributing to the ecosystem with the open-source code (especially important in the early days now).
