MetaMask has expanded its MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) protection to the Sei network, addressing a problem that has cost traders over $1.3 billion in losses.
Key Features:
- Protection against slippage and front-running attacks
- Users receive rebates on their transactions
- Extends MetaMask's existing MEV Blocker technology to a new blockchain
The integration aims to make trading safer across multiple networks as MEV exploitation continues to be a significant issue in DeFi.
