MEV Bot Steals Hacker’s Lunch Money in $7.8 Million Wallet Ambush

An enterprising hacker spent days engineering an exploit against a Safe wallet, only to get brutally front-run by an MEV bot named 'Yoink' that paid 18 ETH to jump the queue and walk off with $7.8 million. Out here swinging in a hammock near the Malecón, watching pelicans dive for actual fish, poetic justice in the mempool is about the only crypto theater worth watching. Who needs regulatory oversight when automated extraction bots are out here running street justice on each other?
