Cross-chain bridges move value between blockchains. Intent-based bridges are a variant where a solver fulfills a user's declared outcome and an off-chain settlement layer later rec…
There Will Be Spam: Characterizing State-Invariant Transactions and Speculative MEV
Vabuk Pahari, Johnnatan Messias, Christof Ferreira Torres
Blockchains rely on transparency and immutability to ensure trust, but these guarantees come at the cost of an ever-growing ledger that increasingly threatens decentralization by m…
Signals and Spoils: Speculative Oracle Extractable Value in the Era of Cross-Chain Interoperability
Hasret Ozan Sevim, Christof Ferreira Torres
A new form of Maximal Extractable Value (MEV), termed speculative MEV, has emerged across Layer-2 blockchains. Unlike Ethereum mainnet, many Layer-2 systems lack a public mempool,…
Financial Dynamics and Interconnected Risk of Liquid Restaking
Hasret Ozan Sevim, Christof Ferreira Torres
Decentralized finance introduces new business models and use cases as part of digital finance. Restaking has recently emerged as a transformative mechanism in DeFi, promising extra…
Exploiting Liquidity Exhaustion Attacks in Intent-Based Cross-Chain Bridges
André Augusto, Christof Ferreira Torres, André Vasconcelos +1
Intent-based cross-chain bridges have emerged as an alternative to traditional interoperability protocols by allowing off-chain entities (\emph{solvers}) to immediately fulfill use…
