This repository serves as the coordination hub for Flashbots research on Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) in blockchain systems. It is primarily a collection of Flashbots Research Proposals (FRPs) in various stages (active, completed, stagnant), along with process documentation, a publications list, and resources. The repository does not contain production code or data pipelines; instead, it tracks research ideas, their status, and outputs. The only executable code is a Python script that regenerates the publications index from a hardcoded list. The publications data is exposed as JSON and CSV for external consumption. While the repo is not a traditional data research repository with datasets and ETL, it serves as a metadata catalog for research outputs and a proposal management system. It is actively maintained with recent commits and ongoing FRP activity. The dominant character is research coordination, with a small data component in the publications list.
