# Mev Protection & Private Txs

ProphetBots MEV protection will help prevent you from being sandwiched.

Sandwiched = Your transaction being frontrunned with a buy & sell on either side of your transaction, forcing a slightly more unattractive entry price to when you submitted the order. \
\
ProphetBots will send your transaction directly to miners, thus avoiding the public mempool, therefore negating any possible slippage/price deviation of which could otherwise become a problem because of MEV bots.\
