Encrypting RPC Filter - MVP

[pepae]

Overview

To encourage Gnosis RPCs to adopt the encrypting RPC, we need a filter to exclude non-MEV prone transactions, conserving encryption resources.

MVP Solution

Objective

Create a filter to distinguish transactions needing frontrunning protection.

Approach

• Begin with ETH transfers initially
• Then:
  • Expand based on on-chain analysis of common transactions.
  • Aim to eventually exclude ~80% of non-essential transactions.
  • Allow developers to apply for specific filters with spam protection.

Next Steps

• Create the basic filter for ETH transfers and implement
• Align on next iteration

I think 1 and 2 are the same.

Some low hanging fruits to what to exclude:

• ETH transfers
• token transactions (Probably good to whitelist tokens)
  • transfers
  • approvals
• change ownership of contracts (OpenZeppelin standard)
