Why does your swap get front-run?
I think of MEV as someone cutting in line: whoever spots a large order first buys ahead of it, then sells afterward, leaving you with a worse price. Not all MEV is harmful, since arbitrage and liquidations help keep DeFi running smoothly. For $ETH , sending your transaction privately through Flashbots can reduce this risk. This is my comparison, not financial advice.

Would you rather block all MEV or accept some of it?
