Uniswap has rolled out "Swap Protection" to shield Ethereum mainnet transactions from sandwich attacks and front-running. When users enable this feature in the Uniswap Wallet, swaps are directed to a private transaction pool, enhancing security against potential threats. Due to this added layer, some swaps might have higher auto slippage to boost the likelihood of successful transactions.

On October 21, SushiSwap, which just turned 4 years old, unveiled its Super Swap roadmap, reflecting on its accomplishments and moving forward into a new chapter of enhancements.

Buterin explained that he has successfully recovered control of his T-Mobile account, which the hacker had compromised through this method. The co-founder of Ethereum also shared some valuable lessons gained from his experience: “I had seen the “phone numbers are insecure, don’t authenticate with them” advice before, but did not realize this”. Removing phone numbers from X accounts and having 2FA enabled is a way to protect yourself from SIM-swap attack.
