MEV might soon be unusable as Ethereum will soon switch from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS). Since MEV is mostly done by validators who stake their ETH, if any validator tries to commit fraudulent activity, the validator's stake will be slashed, meaning some of the staked eth (or rewards) will be subtracted from the validator's stake. | MEV might soon be unusable as Ethereum will soon switch from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS).

'''Cowswap''' | |||
[https://cowswap.exchange Cowswap] is a MEV resistant [[DEX|DEX.]] Instead of submitting swap transactions themselves users instead sign authorizations for Cowswap to make trades on their behalf within a specific price range and timeframe. Since these transactions dont appear in the public mempools they are not able to be exploited by frontrunners or sandwich bots. Additionally cowswap lets users pay with the token they are trading (i.e. DAI) instead of the networks base currency (i.e. ETH). | |||
