The more I watch the MEV/ordering stuff, the more it feels like real-life queue-jumping: who does it affect? The first ones to get unlucky probably aren’t the “whales,” but rather those small retail traders who think they’re trading in a fair market just by clicking a button on the interface—slippage gets eaten, the execution price gets worse, and sometimes the transaction fails outright, while the fees still get charged… In plain terms, the information gap + speed gap gets amplified on-chain.
What’s even crazier is the current testnet incentives and points system—lots of people are watching whether the mainnet will issue tokens, so they try to front-run, batch-interact, and run scripts everywhere, making ordering rights even more valuable. Everyone talks about fairness, but in their hands they’re all looking for shortcuts. I’m not trying to act morally superior—I don’t need to be understood. But at least don’t pretend this is “community consensus”; it feels more like a consensus about human nature. For now, that’s it—continue watching the next episode.
