DOJ charges 2 people over $25 million ETH theft via MEV exploit
The DOJ arrested and charged two individuals on May 15 over an alleged $25 million MEV exploit that occurred on the Ethereum blockchain. The defendants’ plan involved several steps focused on Ethereum’s maximal extractable value (MEV) — particularly the MEV-Boost software many Ethereum validators use to optimize transactions as searchers seek profitable arbitration opportunities using MEV bots.
