Hey guys, have you ever encountered this weird situation when exchanging tokens on DEXs? The price clearly shows 100, but after confirming, it becomes 99.5! Where did the missing 0.5 go? It was stolen by MEV bots! This is the Dark Forest Law of Web3—MEV (Maximum Extractable Value). Validators and bots rearrange transactions behind the scenes, silently taking money from your pocket. The most common is the "sandwich attack": inserting a transaction before and after yours, essentially eating you up like a sandwich. So the question is: Does the Plasma chain, which focuses on payments, also have MEV? The answer is: Yes, but negligible! Why? Because MEV loves to hunt in the complex DeFi world. When you make large Uniswap swaps or Aave liquidations, you become easy prey in the eyes of MEV bots. But 99% of Plasma transactions are simple A-to-B transfers. Imagine this: You transfer 100 USDT to a friend. What can the bot steal from you? Nothing! Plasma's inherent advantage: Making MEV bots unemployable. On other public chains, you're like a pedestrian carrying cash in a busy city, constantly at risk of being robbed. On Plasma, it's like transferring money in your own vault—incredibly safe. The only possible place for MEVs on Plasma: the native DEX. When you exchange USDT for USDC, the bot might try to steal it. But compared to Ethereum's "global casino," Plasma's DEX is like a "community convenience store"—low trading volume, few opportunities, and the bot simply won't bother to camp out for long. Even more ruthless is that Plasma is designed from the ground up to counter MEV. As a new L1 blockchain, Plasma directly learns from its predecessors' mistakes: Fair ordering: First come, first served, not based on who pays the highest gas fee. Encrypted mempool: Completely invisible before transaction packaging, bots can't see it at all. Starry Night's Summary: If you're tired of being leeched off every transaction on Ethereum, If you want a clean, fair, and transparent payment environment, Plasma might be the haven you've been looking for. Here, every payment you make is exactly what you see—no hidden traps, no tricks, no inexplicable losses. This is what a payment chain should be like.
