Introducing MEV Protection: Secure Your Swaps with Trust Wallet

Key Takeaways

• Trust Wallet's MEV Protection secures your swaps from front-running and sandwich attacks.

• It ensures you get fair market prices for your swaps, safeguarding you from paying more or receiving less than the market rate.

• MEV Protection is designed for both the experienced traders and those advancing in the crypto journey, ensuring a safer swap environment.

Empowering Secure Swaps Across the Web3 Ecosystem

Trust Wallet is delighted to introduce the addition of the MEV Protection feature. This comes hot on the heels of our recent upgrade to the Swaps feature, which now offers even more seamless exchanges with over 1M+ token pairs across expanded networks and additional providers.

MEV Protection is specifically built to safeguard your transactions from the challenges of Miner Extractable Value (MEV), such as sandwich attacks and front-running. This serves as a continuation of our commitment to enhancing your crypto experience, ensuring that every transaction is secure and fair. This aligns seamlessly with Trust Wallet’s mission to offer a secure, user-focused Web3 experience.

Understanding MEV Attacks

Miner Extractable Value (MEV) attacks exploit the order of transactions within a blockchain. Through strategies like front-running or sandwich attacks, miners or bots can manipulate transaction orders to profit at the expense of regular users. This can lead to increased slippage, less favorable execution prices, and a generally unfair transactions environment.

What is MEV Protection?

MEV Protection is a feature designed to shield your transactions from these attacks. It ensures that your swaps are executed fairly, without being disadvantaged by MEV strategies. This layer of protection maintains the integrity of your transactions, making your swapping experience more secure and equitable.

How Does MEV Protection Benefit You?

• Fair Swap Prices : MEV protection ensures you get fair market prices for your swaps. It prevents miners or bots from manipulating prices, safeguarding you from paying more or receiving less than the market rate.

• Enhanced Swap Experience: By protecting against sandwich and front-running attacks, we ensure a smoother and more secure transaction process, enhancing your swapping experience.

• User-Informed Security: Trust Wallet users are informed about our MEV protection capabilities from the outset, offering the freedom to opt-in for this additional layer of security.
