According to Odaily Planet Daily, Max Resnick, head of research at SMG, wrote on the X platform that MEV is fundamentally about control. Proposers can control which transactions are counted in blocks and in what order they are counted. He believes that it is possible to solve this problem. The first step is to solve the censorship resistance and set up multiple parallel proposers; the second step is to solve the reordering problem. Once there is a multi-proposer architecture, the proposers can reach a consensus on a set of unordered transactions, and the execution layer is responsible for sorting them using deterministic rules. In response, Vitalik Buterin said, wouldn't this lead to people collecting MEV by flooding the chain with transactions to maximize the chance of being the first? He worries that this will still lead to a 'MEV auction' and create more negative externalities on the protocol. He cited the ICO era in 2017 as an example, when some projects tried to ban transactions with gas fees higher than 50, but received a lot of on-chain spam.
