Someone asked: After a transaction is broadcast but before it’s on-chain, where does it wait?
My answer: There isn’t one single transaction pool shared by the whole network. Each node maintains its own pool according to its own rules, so the transactions in these pools may not be exactly the same. Transactions in a pool are publicly visible across the network, which is precisely what allows MEV bots to trade ahead of others.
