On the Geographic Incentives of Multiple Concurrent Proposers
Kushal Babel, Jason Milionis, Eric Xue
We study whether systems with multiple concurrent proposers (MCP) incentivize the geographic decentralization of proposers. In our model, concurrent proposers strategically choose…
Cadence: Extreme Pipelining with Multiple Concurrent Proposers
Kushal Babel, Fatima Elsheimy, Lioba Heimbach +6
We present Cadence, a Byzantine fault-tolerant multi-proposer consensus protocol with arbitrarily low block intervals, optimal resilience, and optimal fast-path latency. Cadence di…
EVM Workloads in the Wild: Evidence for Multi-Dimensional Gas Metering, State Growth, Delayed Execution, and Parallelism
Lioba Heimbach, Kushal Babel, Jason Milionis
Gas metering on EVM-compatible blockchains assumes that execution conditions are stable: that the resource mix is constant enough to justify collapsing execution costs into a singl…
Blockspace Under Pressure: An Analysis of Spam MEV on High-Throughput Blockchains
Wenhao Wang, Aditya Saraf, Lioba Heimbach +2
On high-throughput, low-fee blockchains, a qualitatively new form of maximal extractable value (MEV) has emerged: searchers submit large volumes of speculative transactions, whose…
