When MEV protection is enabled, both buys and sells will wait for a MEV-protected slot before processing your transaction, ensuring enhanced security. This may result in slower transaction times but offers greater protection.
MEV Protection utilizes a validator tip for improved performance. Falcon will adjust your gas settings to dynamically pay validator tips, prioritizing your transaction accordingly.
Note: As JITO slot access becomes more competitive, you might need to increase your validator tip. Consider adjusting your gas settings if you experience transaction timeouts.
On Solana, MEV protection is managed by JITO. You can learn more about it here: .
