Introduction

Manifold Finance specializes in services and platforms built around maximum extractable value (MEV), including protection from sandwich and front-running attacks, as well as services for capturing revenue via non-predatory MEV strategies like back-running. These services are custom-built for partner dApps, DEXes, AMMs, and other DeFi platforms.

Manifold is rapidly approaching launch of its new flagship project, a MEV-focused liquid staking protocol called mevETH. mevETH is designed to capture MEV from sources unavailable to other liquid staking platforms. This is possible because Manifold operates the entire Ethereum validation stack—block builder, relay, and validators—which unlocks novel and sophisticated MEV approaches that wouldn’t otherwise be available. mevETH will also be the first natively multichain liquid staking token, enabled by LayerZero, maximizing defi composability across multiple chains. mevETH will launch with over 25,000 ETH staked, and a portion of revenue will accrue to stakers of Manifold’s FOLD token.

Manifold is committed to being a responsible, positive-sum partner for the Ethereum ecosystem. We have a no-transaction-censorship policy on all services, and we never employ predatory MEV approaches that generate profit at the expense of users.
