It’s My MEV and I Want It Now
summary
Argues that the MEV supply chain shifts away from public mempools toward private routing by wallets, dapps and RPCs, claims private mempool traffic is already nontrivial (cites 3.8 percent and says it's higher now), and shows concrete vendor paths: RPC interceptors like Heartbeat, gas-timing services like GasHawk, intent-based flows via Sushi + Manifold, and wallet-integrated extraction. Proposes making open auctions economically preferable (mentions MEV-Share) rather than merely condemning privatization.
