[Background]
Starting from the Kaia v2.0 Prague hardfork, the Consensus Liquidity feature will be introduced. This allows KAIA tokens deposited into CL DEX pools to be recognized as staked assets by CL partners at the protocol level. The adoption of this feature was formalized through the approval of KGP-11, which designated BORA and SCNR as official CL partners. Following this approval, the Kaia Foundation has been working on the technical implementation of Consensus Liquidity. As part of this process, the on-chain voting rule must be updated by executing a smart contract that requires GC approval, in order to count KAIA deposited in CL DEX pools as voting power.

[Proposal Summary]
This proposal seeks to execute the following transaction to upgrade the current voting power calculation contract from StakingTracker V1 (0x9b8688d616D3D5180d29520c6a0E28582E82BF4d) to StakingTracker V2 (0xf45c37c265f148894d6d9a4c066afaab00557c9c). The new tracker will take effect for proposals submitted after this upgrade and will not affect any existing proposals.

**Context & Proposal**

[Proposal Summary]
• There is a problem in the Kaia network where MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) profits are being monopolized by specific entities.
• To address this, the Kaia Foundation is preparing and introducing an MEV Auction system.
• Alongside the implementation of this system, a formal MEV policy for the Kaia network is being proposed through a Governance Council (GC) vote.
▸ The Kaia network proposes its MEV policy under the guiding principles of: “Preventing malicious MEV,” “Fostering a fair ecosystem,” and “Returning MEV Profits for the Kaia Ecosystem”
▸ For full details, please refer to the “MEV Policy Governance Proposal.”

[Background for Introducing the MEV Auction]
• MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) refers to the economic gains that can be made by reordering transactions or selectively including or excluding specific transactions.
Reference: [LINK](https://a16zcrypto.com/posts/article/mev-explained)

• Currently, the Kaia network faces the following MEV-related challenges:
▸ Structural risk of MEV monopoly:
- Certain searchers or validators are able to monopolize MEV profits through malicious behavior, due to the current network structure.
▸ Excessive competition caused by MEV:
- Intense competition over MEV opportunities leads to network congestion and increased gas fees, which in turn raises transaction costs for users.
- As a result, general users face transaction delays and higher fees, ultimately lowering the overall efficiency of the blockchain network.

[Introduction to the MEV Auction (KIP-249)]
• To address the MEV-related challenges outlined above, the Kaia Foundation is preparing to introduce the MEV Auction system as defined in KIP-249, and plans to implement it on the Kaia network.
Link : [LINK1](https://kips.kaia.io/KIPs/kip-249) [LINK2](devforum.kaia.io)

Summary : MEV Auction
• The MEV Auction introduces a transparent auction mechanism for determining the order of transactions within a block.
• Specifically, it allows a backrun transaction, selected through a competitive auction, to be placed immediately after a target transaction submitted by a user.
• Instead of allowing MEV profits to be privately captured, the winning bid is collected into an on-chain vault and redirected for the benefit of the broader network.
• MEV Auction Process : [LINK](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex035/uploads/klaytngovernance/original/1X/19fbde8836621e19e68233e6c6665b1f180f574f.png)

① Target Transaction Submitted:
- A user submits a large swap or a transaction that creates a potential MEV opportunity.
- This becomes a target transaction that could be included in an upcoming block.

② Searcher Detects the Backrun Opportunity → Prepares Bid
- Professional searchers scan the mempool and analyze transactions to detect MEV potential (e.g., backrun scenarios).
- They submit sealed bids off-chain to the Auctioneer, including:
• Backrun execution logic
• Bid amount
- To participate, searchers must pre-deposit funds (bid amount + gas fees) into the AuctionDepositVault, preventing spam or insufficient-funds bids.

③ Auctioneer Selects the Highest Bid
- Among multiple bids, the Auctioneer selects the highest one. The selected bid package includes:
· Target transaction
· Backrun execution data
· Bid amount and fees
· Searcher identity
· Deposit proof
- This bundle is forwarded to the validator proposing the next block.

④ Validator Includes Transactions in Block
- The validator, upon creating the block, uses the Auctioneer-provided data to:
· Include the target transaction first
· Then include the backrun transaction in the very next slot (i+1)
- This enforced sequencing prevents reordering attacks (e.g., sandwich attacks) by protocol-level rules.

⑤ AuctionEntryPoint Contract Execution
- The backrun transaction invokes the AuctionEntryPoint smart contract on-chain, which performs the following atomically:
· Deducts the bid amount from the searcher’s deposit
· Executes the backrun logic
· Calculates and refunds unused gas fees
· Finalizes the state depending on success/failure
- If the backrun transaction fails but the target transaction succeeds, the bid is still paid — applying a penalty model.

⑥ Revenue Transfer – AuctionFeeVault
- The bid fee collected by the AuctionEntryPoint is sent to the AuctionFeeVault on-chain.

⑦ Fund Lock-up and Withdrawal
- Regardless of auction outcome, the searcher’s deposit is locked for a fixed period after submission.
- This prevents immediate fund withdrawals and enhances system reliability and trustworthiness.

Expected Benefits of the MEV Auction
•Preventing MEV Profit Monopolies and Returning Value to the Ecosystem
▸ The MEV auction system prevents the previous structure where specific validators or searchers could privately extract MEV profits.
▸ Instead, it shifts to a transparent and competitive auction model, where block proposers can only obtain MEV rewards by participating in the designated bidding process. This makes it much harder to manipulate transaction ordering for personal gain. ▸ MEV profits collected through auctions are transparently pooled and redirected to the broader ecosystem, ensuring that these profits are not concentrated in the hands of a few, but benefit the entire Kaia network.
▸ This structure allows all participants in the Kaia ecosystem to indirectly share in the value generated.
▸ By making the auction process public and verifiable, MEV extraction is transformed into an open and fair process, fostering healthy competition among searchers.
•Improving Network Efficiency and User Experience
▸ The structured nature of the auction replaces chaotic MEV competition (e.g., mass flooding of competing transactions) with a more efficient mechanism for block construction.
▸ Instead of spamming the network with high-fee transactions, searchers compete through bidding, which reduces unnecessary transactions and helps stabilize gas fee
▸ The MEV auction is also expected to reduce malicious behaviors like sandwich attacks.
Because the auction primarily targets backrun opportunities, it favors MEV types that don’t directly harm users — such as those that help rebalance prices — over front-running attacks, which degrade market fairness. This creates a more legitimate and user-aligned MEV environment.

MEV Auction Deployment Plan
• The KIP-249 MEV Auction is being developed in-house by the Kaia Foundation, with the goal of launching the feature through a mainnet upgrade by late September 2025.
•Key Development Components:
▸ Core: Auction Contracts
▸ Service: Auctioneer
▸ Monitoring Tools: Auctioneer Monitor & Dashboard
• Following the upgrade, the Foundation plans to launch a live open beta of the auction system in late September, allowing real-world operation to test the system’s stability and identify any issues in its early phase.
• During the open beta period, the Foundation will closely monitor the participation of community members, searchers, and validators.
Based on their experience and feedback, necessary adjustments will be made before officially activating the system.
• This phased rollout strategy is intended to ensure the stability of the network upgrade and provide participants with sufficient time to adapt to the new system

[MEV Policy Governance Proposal]
• With the introduction of MEV Auction technology to the Kaia network, it is essential to establish a formal MEV policy. This policy is proposed to be adopted through a governance vote, enabling a network-wide consensus.
• The Kaia network aims to implement its MEV policy under the following guiding principles:
▸ “Prevent malicious MEV,” “Build a fair ecosystem,” and “Returning MEV Profits for the Kaia .”
- The policy seeks to prevent any single entity from monopolizing MEV opportunities or exploiting the system for excessive, unfair gain.
- Instead, it ensures a fair and transparent environment where all MEV participants can compete on equal terms.
- The profits generated from MEV should not be concentrated in the hands of a few, but rather returned as a shared resource to support the long-term health and sustainability of the entire Kaia ecosystem.
• Based on the MEV policy direction outlined above, the following three policy proposals are being submitted for governance vote:
▸ Total MEV Revenue = Searcher Profit + Searcher Bid Amount (= MEV Auction Revenue)
▸ Policy 1: Mandatory Activation of MEV Auction Functionality for Validators
- The MEV Auction functionality requires block proposers (validators) to include the data provided by the Auctioneer in their proposed blocks. This process is defined as a mandatory procedure, not optional.
- Specifically, steps ④ to ⑦ of the MEV auction flow are designated as core responsibilities that must be executed by all validator nodes.
• This feature will be automatically enabled with the V2.1 client update, imposing no additional operational burden on validators.
• Through this governance vote, the proposal aims to establish a network-wide consensus to make the MEV Auction process a default and required function for all validators.
- Rationale for Policy 1
• If the MEV Auction were left as an optional feature for validators, some might choose to disable it and instead capture MEV profits for themselves.
• Such behavior would undermine the fairness and transparency of the MEV system, and go against the core principle of the Kaia MEV policy — returning value as a public good.
• Therefore, making MEV Auction functionality mandatory for all validators is essential to ensure a fair and sustainable ecosystem.
• The Kaia Foundation has continuously improved the system and conducted technical research to eliminate any operational burden on validators, aiming to lower participation barriers while promoting the healthy and broad adoption of the MEV auction system across the entire network.
▸ Policy 2: MEV Auction Revenue Distribution Ratio
- All MEV Auction revenue will be returned to the Fund (see Policy 3) for the purpose of supporting public goods, while also allocating a portion to compensate validators for executing MEV-related functions. The revenue will be distributed at a fixed ratio of 90% to the Fund and 10% to Validators.
- Rationale for Policy 2
• No Operational Burden for Validators
> Validators on the Kaia network can perform MEV auction functions without any additional infrastructure, configuration, or maintenance overhead.
• Need for Validator Incentives
> To ensure the stable operation of the MEV Auction system and to recognize the validator’s role as block proposers, a reward mechanism is necessary, even if the cost is minimal.
• Prioritizing Value Redistribution
> Aligned with Kaia’s MEV policy, which emphasizes ecosystem-wide benefit and public value redistribution, the majority of the revenue (90%) is allocated to the Fund, while 10% is designated as validator compensation.
▸ Policy 3: Burn and Utilization Policy for Ecosystem Development Using MEV Auction Revenue
- MEV Auction revenue (i.e., bid amounts collected from searchers) will be managed through a dedicated Fund wallet, and redistributed to support the growth of the Kaia ecosystem.
- This Fund will be managed in the same manner as the KIF (Kaia Infrastructure Fund).
- The Fund’s resources will be allocated for the following purposes:
• Token burn (reducing supply to support value)
• Liquidity provisioning (improving trading efficiency and user experience)
• MEV Auction operation and maintenance costs
• All Fund usage will be managed and disclosed with full transparency, following the same standards applied to KIF.
- Rationale for Policy 3
• MEV Auction revenue will be managed through a dedicated fund structured similarly to the Kaia Infrastructure Fund (KIF). This fund will be used to support MEV infrastructure operations and the overall growth of the Kaia ecosystem, thereby contributing to the long-term sustainability of the network.
> Support a Deflationary Token Model: A portion of the revenue will be burned, helping to reduce the circulating supply of KAIA tokens and reinforcing a deflationary economic structure.
> Improve Liquidity in the Kaia Ecosystem: Part of the fund will be allocated to liquidity provisioning, enhancing trading efficiency and improving the overall user experience.
> Ensure MEV System Sustainability: The fund will cover ongoing operational and maintenance costs, ensuring the MEV ecosystem remains stable, secure, and continuously optimized.
> Enhance Budget Transparency: All fund expenditures will be publicly disclosed, ensuring transparent operations and strengthening community trust.
> Establish a Fast and Flexible Governance Process: A responsive decision-making framework will be implemented to ensure MEV Auction revenue can be efficiently reinvested into the ecosystem where it is most needed.
