This pre-release includes the highest priority changes from our planned v0.2 release.
This includes:
- new bundle pricing formula: flashbots/pm#53 / 910d412
- discard bundles with reverting txs: flashbots/pm#41 / df05284
The updated bundle pricing formula mitigate a race condition where a user submits "2 gwei" bundles by submitting transactions from the mempool and removes the ability for searchers to inflate the value of their bundle by including transactions from the mempool.
Discarding bundles with reverting txs helps provide improved bundle atomicity guarantees to searcher thereby reducing their execution risk.
While the implementation of these features may change for the full release, we recommend miners update their nodes to comply with this pre-release as soon as possible.
The full v0.2 release remains scheduled for April 19th with a target launch date of April 26th. You can see the latest proposal here: flashbots/pm#54
