Chorus One research reports that Solana’s proposed Alpenglow consensus mechanism would raise Byzantine fault tolerance from 33% to 40%, but requires lower network latency—150ms compared to the current 400ms. This change could reduce MEV profits, cutting arbitrage opportunities by around 38% and sandwich attacks by 24%, while potentially increasing geographic centralization among validators.
