What is Paladin?

Paladin is a Jito-Solana fork that filters predatory MEV at the validator level and exposes the Paladin Priority Port (P3) for high-priority transactions routed straight to the leader. Validators stake PAL to run P3 and share MEV revenue with stakers, with around 80 validators and a meaningful share of stake already participating.
