I've been lurking in the group chat for a long time, but I still can't help but say: this "queue jumping" in MEV is really not some mystical thing. The ones most affected aren't necessarily the loudest shouters, but those small orders that casually swap tokens or add liquidity pools on the chain. You think a simple confirm button is all it takes, but in reality, others are watching what you're about to do and deciding how to queue accordingly. The final transaction price you get can be a bit awkward.
Honestly, it's certain that the ordering isn't fair, but don't expect shouting slogans to make it fair. At best, it just makes "who can jump the queue" more transparent rather than a shady practice. Recently, AI agents and automated trading have been pretty popular. I see a lot of people hyping up "automatic profit-making," but when it comes to on-chain interactions, who cares about safety and the risk of getting sandwiched… I’d rather cancel more orders now, even if it’s slower, just to stay alive and wait for the next wave.
