This is a critical issue and one we’re working closely on with the Monad team.
We won’t bring the next wave of retail and institutional traders onchain if market structure remains opaque, inefficient, or easy to exploit.
DMS are open for anyone thinking deeply about liquidity provisioning, execution, routing, or settlement!
Bringing equities on chain is legitimately very exciting, because it means knocking down walls and giving global investors access to better opportunities.
But it only works if people can get a fair price for the thing they're trading.
Monad is addressing this in two ways:
1. no front-running, due to encrypted mempools
2. no order spoofing in aggregators, due to fully on-chain order routing; made possible on Monad by compute and storage efficiency
We won't disrupt the existing system by papering over systems that leave an opening for MEV extractors and malicious quoters. A new and open financial system will only thrive when built on firm footing. Fair outcomes for users. Watch this space.
