🙀 Liquidations in DeFi leak over $2B annually to MEV bots through gas wars — a system that’s wasteful, opaque, and largely benefits only a handful of actors.

Redstone’s OEV (Oracle Extractable Value) approach reframes the problem: instead of competing on gas, liquidators participate in fast, off-chain auctions. The winner is selected before MEV extraction and broadcast on-chain atomically, minimising disruption, preserving transparency, and redirecting value back to the protocol.

💹 What’s notable is not just the design, but the execution: no code changes needed for protocols, no infra changes for liquidators, and measurable results. In a live POC with Venus, the system recovered $6K in value during a month of real usage.

It’s a step toward making DeFi systems more fair, accountable, and infrastructure-grade.
