Questions for August 22
gamey:
Just for clarity, the get what you pay for order matching algorithm protects against typical market participants front-running. It does not provide a defense against a delegate reordering transactions. I was wondering what can be done to protect against that ?
It is like how banks were caught queuing up charges on bank cards and putting the largest ones first to maximize the number of overcharges. Weird games can be played like that by being able to order transactions.

What in the network would allow detection of this type of attack if it exists ?

I believe this is THE MAIN reason for the 'Get What you asked for' order matching algo. Will be happy to hear Dan confirm/reject that.
