Relayers

Relayers act as intermediaries that facilitate the transmission of transaction bundles from users to block builders. They provide a secure and private channel that bypasses the public mempool, protecting sensitive order flow from front-running.

Relayers verify the validity of bundles and ensure that they meet the required criteria before forwarding them to builders. This infrastructure is essential for maintaining the integrity of private auction markets.

By providing a trusted interface, relayers allow traders to participate in the MEV ecosystem with confidence. They serve as a critical bridge between the user-facing layer and the consensus-level block building process.

Without relayers, the market for private transaction execution would be significantly less efficient and more vulnerable to exploitation.
