DeFi | Why do on-chain swaps get “sandwiched”?
MEV (maximum extractable value) refers to extra profits gained by arranging the order of transactions within a block, or by inserting or removing transactions.
On-chain transactions are generally publicly visible before they are bundled into a block. Whoever can decide the order of transactions has an opportunity to profit from it.
By the way: $ETH is currently priced at 2250.99, down 2.42% over 24 hours.
Only put in money you can afford to lose.
