Ethereum Foundation Suffered from MEV Bot Attack in Eth Selling
The recent exploit faced by the Ethereum Foundation on the decentralized finance (DeFi) platform Uniswap V3 casts a spotlight on the burgeoning issue of Sandwich attacks orchestrated by MEV (Miner Extractable Value) Bots within the blockchain and cryptocurrency domain. According to data unveiled by EigenPhi and shared by WuBlockchain, during a transaction that occurred at 16:18 UTC+8, the Ethereum Foundation endeavored to sell 1,700 ETH on Uniswap V3.
