Titan Builder earns $2.28 million in a day amid Binance hack fallout by prioritizing Ethereum transaction ordering

Following the Binance hack, Titan Builder, a 16-person London-based infrastructure firm, earned $2.28 million in a single day by prioritizing Ethereum transactions. As hackers needed to convert frozen USDT and USDC into unstaked assets, they paid premiums to expedite transactions. Data from Bitquery shows builders received $29.5 million in tips, a 2,000-fold increase from the prior night, while transaction failures surged. Titan Builder, which controls block building and connects to over 90% of validators, captured the majority of these fees, reflecting its dominant position in Ethereum's block-building market.
