<p>The maximal extractable value (MEV) referred to as the maximum value that can extracted from block production over the standard block reward. MEV was first applied in the context of proof-of-work and initially referred to as miner extractable value. After the transition of Proof-of-Stake, the MEV accrues completely to validators because they are the only party that can guarantee the profitable MEV opportunity.</p>

It copies a Tx and pays the miners a large amount of ETH for a frontrunner. The MEV bot is a script that automates the process of Identifying and exploiting MEV opportunities on the Ethereum blockchain.&nbsp;</p>
