According to ChainCatcher, Justin Sun posted on a social platform that the Tron network has recently received feedback from the community about front-running transactions. After investigation and research, it was found that the Tron network does not have a MEV mechanism. Overall, Tron is significantly ahead of Ethereum and Solana in preventing robots from front-running transactions, with an interception rate of about 98%.
Tron's SR (Super Representative) nodes do not implement any MEV (Maximum Extractable Value) mechanism. No one can prioritize their own transactions on the chain through price manipulation, etc., nor can they manipulate blocks by rearranging, inserting or deleting transactions within blocks to obtain additional benefits.
After investigation, it was found that TRON super nodes did not accept bribes to facilitate front-running transactions, and the official prohibition is to assist in front-running transactions in any form.
The so-called MEV transactions discovered by the community involved a large number of failed scenarios where bots were using probabilistic methods to exploit victims.
Front-running is a strategy that bots on every blockchain use, and Tron is no exception. However, Tron’s design eliminates privilege mechanisms such as giving priority to on-chain transaction senders. In addition, a decentralized voting system oversees SR behavior, greatly reducing the possibility of front-running and making the market fairer.
