PancakeSwap expands its MEV Guard tool to protect users from MEV attacks by adding support for popular crypto wallets.
What Is MEV and Why Does It Matter?
MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) refers to profits extracted from blockchain users by controlling transaction order. These include frontrunning and sandwich attacks, where bots or specialized traders insert their transactions to profit. PancakeSwap’s MEV Guard shields users from such practices.
Key Features of the Enhanced MEV Guard
The expanded MEV Guard offers PancakeSwap users several important benefits:
- Secure Swaps: Protects trades on BNB Chain from frontrunning and sandwich attacks
- Fast, Reliable RPC: Uses BNB Chain's ecosystem for stable, high-performance connections
- Free One-Click Setup: Easy activation
- Multi-Wallet Support: Now supports Binance Wallet, Trust Wallet, OKX Wallet, MetaMask, and Rabby Wallet
