How Do ‘Private Transaction Relays’ Attempt to Mitigate Front-Running from the Mempool?
Private transaction relays, often facilitated by services like Flashbots, allow users to submit transactions directly to miners/validators without broadcasting them to the public Mempool. This bypasses the transparent staging area, preventing front-running bots from seeing the pending trade.
The miner/validator then includes the transaction directly into a block, ensuring the order is processed without public exposure and subsequent exploitation.
