Solana Co-founder: Increasing competition among block producers may be a potential solution to the MEV problem

Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko stated in a post on X that perhaps the most realistic way to solve MEV is to maximize competition among existing block producers and allow users to choose which block producer they want to package their transactions. Yakovenko said that this is still an engineering problem, but it is not impossible to achieve. The more block producers scheduled per second, the shorter the time users wait for the best packaging quote, and reducing block intervals, parallel processing, faster node rotation, and so on can improve this situation. The market will make choices on these issues, and it is important that users are willing to submit their transactions to this type of block auction.
