Introducing Loki, a dedicated Polygon MEV testnet for validato | Marlin Protocol Announcements

Introducing Loki, a dedicated Polygon MEV testnet for validators to smoothly transition to mev-bor on mainnet.

Dive in: https://blog.marlin.org/polygon-mev-testnet-is-live

Allows validators to test the stability of mev-bor without affecting the mainnet.

Display interoperability with other clients like core bor.

A testing ground for the Marlin gateway which acts as a bridge between mev-bor & different private relays.

Display the stability of the simultaneous usage of the public mempool using the P2P network & private relays.

No token even on testnet needs to be staked.

Prospective Bor validators need only register offchain with the testnet operator by filling https://form.typeform.com/to/meZlLpNS.

To listen to MEV bundles, operators are required to run the Marlin gateway which connects to the Marlin relay.
