What is MEV?

MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) is profit generated from how blockchain transactions are ordered and executed.

Before diving into strategies and profits, it’s important to understand the foundation. MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) is at the heart of how modern blockchain markets function. It represents the hidden value created by the way transactions are ordered and executed on-chain, forming a new layer of opportunity for traders and validators alike.

Examples include:

  • Arbitrage between decentralized exchanges

  • Liquidation events on lending platforms

  • Sandwich strategies around large trades

MEV was once reserved for elites. Aerotyne democratizes it for all users.
