Hm. Have the economics changed? In a proof of work system, you have to operate a mining farm, using hardware and power. In the new proof of stake system, you just have to operate a validator, which is cheap, and own lots of ETH. So, while there are advantages to front-running, there's not as much cost pressure to do it. The motivations of miners and HODLers are different. |

This is false. You never had to run a validator to watch the mempool and do MEV.
