Recently browsing on-chain records, it increasingly looks like rush hour in the subway: clearly queuing, but someone directly "cuts in line" in front of you to complete the transaction. MEV, to put it simply, is about the ordering rights causing trouble; you think you clicked buy, but you're actually competing with a group of faster bots for position… The ones most affected are small orders and emotional trades, the moment they rush in is the easiest to get sandwiched, and behind beautiful candlesticks are all fees and slippage burning money.
So, who does this really affect?
Mainly those of us who are quick but not fast enough…
Recently, before and after the upgrade/maintenance of that mainstream public chain, the group has been guessing whether projects will migrate. I think there's no need to jump to big dramas prematurely; the "who goes first or second" on-chain doesn’t change, and moving just means changing platforms and still squeezing in. Anyway, now I always think for two seconds before placing an order: am I here to meme, or am I just a stepping stone for others’ profits. That’s all for now.
