Backrun Arbitrage

Earn Rebates on Private Transactions & Access Exclusive Order Flow

BackRunMe is Bloxroute’s Backrun Arbitrage feature, designed for both private transaction senders and MEV searchers. It provides a mechanism where arbitrage opportunities can be extracted after private transactions, without exposing them to frontrunning or sandwich attacks.

BackRunMe is used through two components:

Key Benefits

No risk of frontrunning – Private transactions remain protected. ✅ Earn rebates – If your transaction creates arbitrage, you get a share of the revenue. ✅ Exclusive arbitrage opportunities – Searchers gain access to high-value private order flow.

Why is BackRunMe Relevant to You?

  • Private Transaction Senders & Bundle Submitters:

    • If your private transaction or bundle creates an arbitrage opportunity, you may receive a rebate/cashback (a share of the extracted arbitrage profit).

    • Your transaction remains private, ensuring protection from frontrunning and sandwich bots.

    • The arbitrage transaction executes after your transaction is confirmed, meaning your trade is unaffected.

  • Searchers & MEV Arbitrageurs:

    • Gain access to exclusive order flow (not visible in the public mempool) composed of arbitrage opportunities.

    • Compete with other searchers to extract these opportunities.

    • Share a portion of the arbitrage revenue with Bloxroute as a "bribe," which is then partially redistributed to the originating transaction sender.

How BackRunMe Works

How to Use BackRunMe

  • For Private Transactions & Bundles:

    • For Bundles, you need to configure the enable_backrunme and backrunme_reward_address parameters (this is done automatically for Private Transactions).

    • If using a self-custodial wallet (e.g. MetaMask), use backrunme.com to trade on Uniswap v2 or Sushiswap with protection from frontrunning. For more specific information about how to use BackRunMe, follow our Guide.

    • To send private transactions on Ethereum or BSC outside of Uniswap/Sushiswap, use Bloxroute’s Protect RPCs.

  • For Searchers:

    • Access high-fidelity private order flow and compete for arbitrage opportunities by subscribing to the BackRunMe: arbOnlyMEV stream.

    • Extract MEV by backrunning private transactions and share a portion of the profits.
