Sorella Labs昨日宣布完成 750 万美元种子轮融资,该轮融资由 Paradigm 领投,其他参与者包括 Uniswap Ventures、Bankless Ventures、Robot Ventures 和 Nascent。Sorella Labs 是一家致力于解决以太坊生态系统中 MEV 问题的加密初创公司。

核心工具概览

Sorella Labs 正在开发两款核心工具:

  1. Brontes:一款开源的区块链分析工具,能够处理以太坊区块数据,分类交易行为,并通过模式匹配和分析识别 MEV。可以被视为一个具有自定义区块分析功能的开源 Etherscan。Brontes 已于今日上线并开放使用。

    具体来说,Brontes 能够根据交易的具体行为进行分类,包括交易的发起者、接收者、交易金额、Gas 费用等。并将原始的以太坊区块链数据转化为结构化、易于分析的格式,极大简化了数据预处理过程。此外,Brontes 还结合了链外数据(如中心化交易所价格、元数据、点对点数据等),使得分析更加全面和准确。为了满足不同用户的需求,Brontes 提供了一个模块化框架,用户可以根据自己的需求创建和应用不同的分析方法。这使得 Brontes 成为一个开放性极高的工具,适合用于复杂的区块链数据分析。

  2. Angstrom:一款旨在减少去中心化交易所中常见套利行为的工具,计划作为 Uniswap V4 的一个 hook 推出。Uniswap V4 引入了一些新功能包括 hook、单例设计(所有的流动池都由一个合约管理)和支持原生 ETH 交易对等,预计将在今年下半年上线。V4 中,hook 是一种与流动性池绑定的可定制智能合约,允许开发者在流动性池生命周期中的特定点执行自定义代码,从而实现复杂的逻辑和功能。Angstrom 作为 hook 将通过 Sorella 的链下网络,在每个区块内运行两次拍卖机制。

  • 第一次拍卖:目的是决定哪个交易可以在区块内最先被处理。交易顺序通常是由交易的 Gas 费用和提交时间决定的,容易被抢跑交易者(front-runners)利用,他们通过支付更高的 Gas 费用来确保在大额交易之前执行交易,从而利用大额交易导致的价格变化来获利。而 Angstrom 的第一次拍卖是公平竞价的,即使抢跑交易者尝试插入他们的交易,也需要通过拍卖机制来争夺优先权。这样一来,攻击者无法再仅仅通过提高 Gas 费用或快速提交交易来确保自己的交易在大额交易之前被处理。

  • 第二次拍卖:是一个批量拍卖,所有订单会在同一个价格点执行,避免因单笔大额交易导致的价格剧烈波动,从而防止三明治攻击和一般套利行为,进一步增强了防护。

Sorella Labs VS Flashbots

Flashbots 和 Sorella Labs 目标相似,但在具体实现方式和目标用户上有所不同,形成了互补的关系。

Flashbots 专注于解决以太坊协议层面的 MEV 问题,旨在通过优化矿工和验证者的操作流程,实现更公平和透明的 MEV 提取。Flashbots 推出了 MEV-Boost 等一系列工具,通过建立一个标准化的 MEV 拍卖系统,减少网络中的恶意竞争行为,确保矿工和验证者能够在公平的环境中提取 MEV。这些工具不仅减少了验证者之间的不公平竞争,还缓解了 MEV 的负面影响。Flashbots 的核心目标是提升以太坊网络的整体安全性和透明度,同时为参与者创造一个更公平的竞争环境。

Sorella Labs 则聚焦于应用层面的 MEV 缓解,开发 Brontes 和 Angstrom 等工具,直接作用于 DeFi 应用程序层,旨在减少流动性提供者的损失并提高用户的交易执行质量。Sorella Labs 的核心目标是通过改善应用层的交易公平性和效率,保护 DeFi 用户的利益。

Cerebras IPO: A $48.8 Billion Valuation—Is the 'Nvidia Challenger' a Bubble or a New King?

Cerebras Systems, positioning itself as an NVIDIA challenger, is going public with a $48.8 billion valuation despite several underlying paradoxes revealed in its S-1 filing. While 2025 revenue grew 76% to $510M and GAAP net income was $237.8M, this profitability relies heavily on a one-time, non-cash accounting gain. Adjusting for this, the company's non-GAAP net loss actually widened to $75.7M. Furthermore, customer concentration remains extreme: 86% of 2025 revenue came from two Abu Dhabi-based entities, MBZUAI (62%) and G42 (24%). Its landmark deal with OpenAI, valued at over $20 billion, creates a complex, nested relationship where OpenAI is simultaneously a major customer, lender, warrant holder, and strategic partner with exclusivity clauses. Cerebras's technical edge in latency-sensitive AI inference is real, with its wafer-scale chip outperforming competitors in benchmarks. However, this advantage is confined to a specific niche, not the broader AI training market dominated by NVIDIA's CUDA ecosystem. With a 95x price-to-sales ratio, the valuation demands flawless execution of the OpenAI contract and massive future revenue growth. Key long-term risks include intense competition from giants like NVIDIA and AMD, a dual-class share structure granting insiders near-total voting control, and ongoing geopolitical uncertainties regarding export controls. The IPO is a pivotal capital markets event for AI infrastructure. As an investment, it represents a high-risk, high-reward bet on the "inference-first" narrative and Cerebras's ability to dominate its specialized segment, underpinned by a valuation that highlights the current fervor in the sector.

What Happens to Ethereum Developer Tools After the Grants Run Out?

On February 27th, the Ethereum Foundation (EF) announced Project Odin, a structured sustainability support program designed for a select group of strategic, previously grant-funded teams. Unlike a standard grant, Odin offers a long-term advisory mechanism focused on helping these teams establish credible, sustainable paths within a two-year framework, thereby reducing long-term dependence on single funding sources. The program addresses a critical post-grant challenge: how essential public goods, especially major developer tools, can achieve financial sustainability beyond initial funding. While grants from EF and programs like Gitcoin or RetroPGF remain vital for startups and research, they often fall short for mature, widely-used infrastructure. Tools like compilers, languages, and network stacks are deeply embedded but struggle with monetization, trapped between being too foundational to lose and too public to generate natural revenue. Project Odin provides teams with a dedicated Strategic Advisor to guide them through a three-phase process: 1) analyzing current funding and realistic options, 2) validating potential paths with stakeholders, and 3) executing plans, which may include crafting support contracts, service agreements, or other recurring revenue models. The first pilot participant is Vyper, a critical smart contract language for the EVM, highlighting the need for sustainable models for core infrastructure. The initiative reframes the public goods conversation from "who should be funded" to "how do already-proven teams avoid perpetual funding crises?" It encourages ecosystem participants—protocols and projects that depend on these tools—to view sustainable support not just as charity, but as essential risk management for their own operational supply chains.
