Ai 姨 tweets on Web3 hypocrisy: sandwich attacks embraced but hacks trigger legal pursuit, posted June 22 2026.

Solana records 77,188 sandwich attacks and 10,752 SOL extracted in 30 days as MEV concentrates among 203 attackers, with SOL trading at $84.7 on the 4h chart.

According to @ItsDave_ADA, 237.8 SOL was extracted via 7,008 sandwich attacks by 94 attackers over the last seven days at a total execution cost of 31.6 SOL, impacting 6,689 users, underscoring material execution risk for Solana traders; source: https://twitter.com/ItsDave_ADA/status/2014813757990658310. According to @ItsDave_ADA, this value extraction is a direct consequence of Solana’s architecture where transactions can be observed and reordered in real time, making sandwiching a rational strategy for faster actors. According to @ItsDave_ADA, users experience worse execution and unexplained slippage not due to natural price moves but because their orders are deliberately traded around. According to @ItsDave_ADA, higher throughput and faster blocks do not solve the problem and instead increase the opportunity set when ordering is discretionary and incentives are misaligned. According to @ItsDave_ADA, Solana’s speed-first design imposes a quiet, repeated cost on users one transaction at a time, while attackers accumulate profits.
