### <mark style="color:blue;">What is sandwich attacks and why should I care?</mark>

*"Just let me ape"* - everyday degenerate

AMMs are the primarly venue for meme coin trading and users tend to use high slippage to guarantee early entries. What most do not realize is that this exposes them to sandwich bots. This is a major issue that, for reference 50K Solana was essentially stolen in 1 month in 2024 due to this. The way is works is that Bots can see your transaction on the meme pool and simply place one to buy beforehand and another to sell right after. The first transaction increases the price, the user then purchases at a higher price increasing it further and then the bot sells at a profit.&#x20;

### <mark style="color:blue;">Fine, what do I do?</mark>

Glad you ask, all you have to do is trade on Interest Protocol! Our AMM prevents most of the sandwich bot attacks by introducing slot windows in which the bid price is constant. In simpler terms, if a bot sandwiches you, it will lose money. There are no extra steps needed for the users, it is an invisible solution to the application layer.
