Are There Alternatives to Commit-Reveal Schemes for Preventing MEV?

Yes, several alternatives exist. One approach is using encrypted mempools or trusted execution environments (TEEs) , where transactions are encrypted until they are executed, hiding them from miners.

Another is batch auctions , where orders are collected over a period and executed at a single, uniform clearing price, eliminating the advantage of ordering. Furthermore, some protocols utilize private order flow to dedicated block builders who promise not to front-run, or employ Fair Ordering mechanisms at the protocol level.
