Solana Foundation Issues Warning: Punishment for Malicious Verifiers Incoming! Learn More Here
The Solana Foundation has made a strong statement regarding the recent sandwich attacks on Solana users, promising to take action against those responsible.
In response to the malicious sandwich attacks, the Solana Foundation has decided to remove a group of validator operators from its authentication program.
Tim Garcia, Solana Validator Relations Lead, announced the decision on the foundation’s Discord server, stating that any operators involved in allowing sandwich attacks will face enforcement actions.
This move is aimed at ensuring that only trustworthy validators are authorized by the foundation, as explained by Mert Mümtaz, co-founder of Solana RPC provider Helius.
Sandwich attacks are a form of front-running exploit where an attacker manipulates prices by placing transactions around a victim’s transaction to profit from the price difference.
According to Garcia, these attacks go against the rules set by the Solana Foundation, and operators engaging in such activities will not be tolerated.
The Solana Foundation Delegation Program, which supports validators by delegating SOL tokens to them, is designed to promote good practices and performance among validators.
