PL: Plural MEV Research Tooling Update

Development Update Week 15: April 8-14

Release v2.4.0 is out, with major updates and new features to facilitate the Plural Research Experiment event in Berlin on May 28th.

As always, the full release and change log can be found on Github, highlights are given below:

  • The plural voting mechanism can now be adjusted on a per vote basis to include or ignore different grouping dimensions
  • As explained last update, a new feature has been added which allows researchers to register a maximum of 5 proposals each
  • Researchers can easily join groups and submit group proposals. These groups can automatically be accounted for in the plural voting mechanism. This feature goes beyond the scope of the initial grant, but we felt it was important for the smooth running of the event, which is focused on bridging and recombining across unexpected collaborations
  • Researchers can now indicate that their proposal is a bounty, rather than something they intend to work on themselves
  • Test coverage has been further expanded

The focus now shifts to testing to ensure everything runs smoothly on event day

Event

Event preparations continue on schedule. There are now over 70 high-quality applicants from across the entire MEV research ecosystem, which suggests the event will easily reach its intended capacity. Reminder emails have been sent out to encourage participants to complete their applications, refine their proposals and submit new ones.
