Solvers

Role​

Solvers (AKA searchers) are the entities trying to capture the MEV generated by user operations, if any.

Duties​

Solvers must:

  • Escrow (AKA bond) enough atlETH to Atlas, in order to cover their future gas consumption.
  • Deploy their solver contract, with the appropriate callback functions.
  • Connect to the operations-relay, to receive user operation data.
  • Filter user operations and bid on those they are interested in backrunning.
  • Construct, sign, and send to the operations-relay their solver operations.
info

Solvers are encouraged to use an Atlas SDK to facilitate the construction of their operations.
