To accelerate decentralization in block building, Flashbots has deprecated our centralized block builders and migrated our orderflow and refunds to [BuilderNet](https://buildernet.org/). + +BuilderNet will make Ethereum more resilient by introducing a neutral way for many parties to share orderflow and collaborate in building blocks. It will also create better user experiences by providing a fair and equal platform to trade, and using verifiable ordering rules and improved privacy techniques to keep users safe. + +As of December 5 2024, Flashbots no longer operates centralized block builders on Ethereum. A few instances will remain as backups to ensure continuity of service in extraordinary situations during the BuilderNet alpha period. + +We invite the community to join us in developing BuilderNet, and to accelerate decentralization and neutrality in block building.
