Ethereum's Blockspace Market Under the Microscope

A builder, a relay, a pricing researcher, and an EF researcher co-authored a paper on what's broken in Ethereum's blockspace pipeline. Here's what they found - and what they're not saying.

Relay Block Merging: How Losing Builders Still Get Paid

A new mechanism from the Titan team lets relays append transactions from losing builders onto winning blocks - creating more valuable blocks, solving relay economics, and improving censorship resistance. All without changing the protocol.

Relay Inclusion Lists: Censorship Resistance Without a Hard Fork

A proposal from the Titan team introduces relay-level inclusion lists - bringing FOCIL-style censorship resistance to Ethereum today, without any protocol changes. Here's how the mechanism works and why it matters.
