According to BlockBeats news on August 17, Helius officially announced the launch of a brand new feature allowing users to earn SOL rewards while trading. This mechanism is designed to help users capture profits that would otherwise be obtained by arbitrageurs, making trading more efficient and rewarding.
Specifically, when users complete a transaction (buy/sell/exchange), if the transaction triggers an arbitrage opportunity (for example, price updates across trading platforms), users will receive a 50% reward. The entire process does not affect the execution of the transaction itself, nor is there a malicious MEV risk. This model is referred to as 'productive MEV' because it facilitates timely price updates, thereby enhancing market efficiency.
Participation in this feature is completely voluntary and will only be enabled when users actively choose to do so. At the same time, all processes can be verified on-chain, ensuring transparency.
