What are XGA (eXtensible Gas Auctions)?

Accepted Answer

XGA lets validators join advanced gas auctions to maximize MEV extraction and increase yields through sophisticated strategies.

Gas auctions help validators capture more value from transaction ordering and MEV. Our auction system increases validator yields by 15-25% compared to traditional block building.

The minimum stake varies by track. Node operators need 32 ETH per validator. Other tracks require between $1,000 and $50,000.

Accepted Answer

We calculate points based on your participation level, performance, and time involved. Each track rewards consistent participation and long-term commitment with bonus multipliers.

Risks differ by track: node operators face slashing, liquidity providers face impermanent loss, underwriters risk capital, and auction participants face market competition. We provide detailed risk assessments for each track.

Each track follows its own vesting schedule. You receive 20-40% of rewards immediately, and the rest vests over 6-24 months.
