ZERO-DOWNTIME MIGRATION
Our Managed Migration Process
We execute a phased, hands-on migration to MEV-Boost, ensuring your validator's attestation performance and rewards remain uninterrupted throughout the transition.
01
Pre-Migration Audit & Strategy
We analyze your current validator setup, consensus client, and execution layer configuration to create a risk-mitigated migration plan. This includes a compatibility check for your hardware and a detailed timeline.

02
Staged Configuration & Testing
We deploy and configure MEV-Boost relays (e.g., Flashbots, bloXroute) in a staged, non-production environment. We simulate block proposals to validate relay performance and fee recipient setup before mainnet cutover.

Technical & Commercial Questions
MEV-Boost Migration FAQs
Common questions from CTOs and validators planning their MEV-Boost migration. Based on our experience migrating 100+ legacy validators.
A standard migration for a single validator client takes 2-3 weeks from kickoff to mainnet deployment. This includes architecture review, relay configuration, testing on Holesky/Goerli, and final cutover. For large staking pools with 100+ validators, we implement a phased rollout over 4-6 weeks to ensure zero downtime.
