Stride is a Cosmos-based liquid staking platform that supports IBC-compatible tokens. When a user stakes on Stride, they receive not just staking rewards, but also Stride’s derivative receipt tokens, stTokens (for example, stATOM). Users can exchange these stTokens for the original non-derivative assets, alongside their staking rewards at any time. This approach allows users to simultaneously participate in yield-generating DeFi protocols on the Cosmos ecosystem with their stTokens.

The term "maximum extractable value" (MEV) refers to the maximum reward obtained from a single block production. This value is typically greater than the standard reward for block creation, and it’s created by re-ordering the transactions within a specific block while it is being formed. In other words, MEV is the maximum profit a validator, or network participant can make from altering the order of transactions in a blockchain.

Blockchain is a decentralized peer-to-peer system with all of its nodes widely distributed across the internet. The data stored on the ledger from every node is in sync with each other and modifying data without consensus is nearly impossible. The most significant achievement of blockchain technology is that it manages to maintain trust in networks on a global scale without any central authority. At the center of this technology, are consensus algorithms.
