former co-founder of Flashbots launches Telegram trading robot Alfred

Stephane Gosselin, former co-founder of Flashbots, has launched a Telegram bot named Alfred for executing token swaps on Ethereum. The bot aims to facilitate user-friendly token swaps and prevent the maximum extractable value (MEV) profits from reordering trades. Gosselin, now CEO of Frontier Research, collaborated with research firm Kolibrio to develop Alfred, which not only prevents MEV in social messaging app interfaces but also provides advanced trading tools for users. The team behind Alfred is considering various revenue models as the bot does not have a dedicated token and may charge service fees for trades executed through the bot in the future.

Making Ether A Better Money

In its current form, Ether (ETH) is not a good form of money. This is due to one critical limitation: its value is highly unstable. However, ETH can become stable by adjusting the rewards to validators (and thus the supply of ETH) to changes in demand for ETH. We can target a 0% inflation rate while ensuring validators are paid sufficiently to ensure network security. This new monetary policy can be called Stable Ether Monetary Policy (SEMP). With SEMP, ETH holders would have a great currency, and ETH validators would have exposure to the adoption of ETH.

Vanilla Based Sequencing

In the design, L2 sequencing is performed by L1 proposers who have opted-in to participate as L2 sequencers and be punished for misbehaviour. The default L2 sequencer is the current slot L1 proposer. If the current L1 proposer has not opted-in to be a part of the rollup protocol, another opted-in L1 proposer is chosen at random to replace them.
