Recent years have witnessed remarkable developments and increasingly deepened
integrations between blockchain as a decentralized computing architecture and auction as …

Users bid in a transaction fee mechanism (TFM) to get their transactions included and
confirmed by a blockchain protocol. Roughgarden (EC'21) initiated the formal treatment of …

The incentive-compatibility properties of blockchain transaction fee mechanisms have been
investigated with passive block producers that are motivated purely by the net rewards …

In ZK-Rollups, provers spend significant computational resources to generate validity proofs.
Their costs should be compensated properly, so a sustainable prover market can form over …

Blockchains deploy Transaction Fee Mechanisms (TFMs) to determine which user
transactions to include in blocks and determine their payments (ie, transaction fees) …

The recently proposed Transaction Fee Mechanism (TFM) literature studies the strategic
interaction between the miner of a block and the transaction creators (or users) in a …

To allocate transactions to blocks, cryptocurrencies use an auction-like transaction fee
mechanism (TFM). A conjecture of Roughgarden [44] asks whether there is a TFM that is …

This paper studies the optimal transaction fee mechanisms for blockchains, focusing on the
distinction between price-based ($\mathcal {P} $) and quantity-based ($\mathcal {Q} $) …

In this paper we show that, using only mild assumptions, previously proposed
multidimensional blockchain fee markets are essentially optimal, even against worst-case …

Propelled by ongoing advances in blockchain technologies, transaction volumes of major
cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum have surged, causing strain on network …
