The current game between Ethereum consensus and MEV starts from the day when PoW switched to PoS...
From the perspective of protocol design, it is necessary not only to design a market mechanism for redistributing MEV, but also to consider how to make validators more decentralized and how to improve censorship resistance. In addition, there are many trade-offs in protocol design. Take ePBS, which has already obtained an EIP number, as an example. Although the design of ePBS solves the problem of centralized relay, does the key role of relay, a third party outside the protocol, really only have negative effects?

If the builder packs a block with super high profits, it will not be able to provide high returns to the proposer under the prepaid mechanism.
