    -relay https://0xac6e77dfe25ecd6110b8e780608cce0dab71fdd5ebea22a16c0205200f2f8e2e3ad3b71d3499c54ad14d6c21b41a37ae@boost-relay.flashbots.net \

Setting a minimum bid value

Using the -min-bid flag to set a minimum bid value will incur a small opportunity cost and increase the chance of building local mempool blocks. These are the chances per value of building a local block (based on median payload values during the past two weeks):

min-bid % chance for building a local block
0.1 ETH 97.2%
0.06 ETH 50%
0.03 ETH 13.5%
0.02 ETH 2.3%
0.01 ETH 0.01%
