Ethereum network and manipulations

Home


In cooperation with Nethermind, I published another research on EIP-1559.  If you don't remember or don't know it, EIP-1559 is an improvement that replaces the auction-based fee market in Ethereum network with a basefee and a tip. The difference between the basefee and the tip is that the first one is paid by a user and burned by the protocol, and the tip is paid directly to the miner. This time I focus on the possibility of the basefee manipulation. As everywhere where the money is involved, somebody can try to cheat the system. You can find the article here.
