Rubic’s integration of the Private RPC feature marks a significant step towards fortifying the security of users’ funds and ensuring better rates. With measures in place to prevent front-running, while enhancing transaction rates, and prioritizing user privacy, Rubic continues to contribute to the advancement of a safer and more secure crypto ecosystem.
MEV Protect Engine by BloXroute, the latest addition to Rubic’s arsenal, aims to improve the DeFi ecosystem on Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, and Polygon, by introducing the Frontrunning Prevention feature to professional and retail traders in scale and benefit the contributors in the process.
When you engage in a swap exceeding $1,000, our platform takes a proactive approach to safeguard your funds. A specially designed window will automatically appear, presenting you with the option to activate Private RPC for enhanced fund protection.
