[ EIP-8184 / LUCID ENCRYPTED MEMPOOL ]PRE-EXECUTION PRIVACY & MEV DISPLACEMENT
What happens to MEV when transactions are encrypted before block inclusion?
BlobLens models the displacement of sandwiching & frontrunning MEV under EIP-8184 (Lucid threshold encryption), tracking key reveals, committee consensus, and post-encryption residual arbitrage.

The Two-Slot Lucid Inclusion Pipeline
How an encrypted transaction travels from ticket reservation to decrypted execution🟣 EIP-8184
Slot N: Ticket Inclusion
Sealed payload included by builder without plaintext visibility.
Slot N+1: Key Reveal & Execution
Committee reveals decryption key; transaction executes atomically.
