Polygon Launches Private Mempool to Provide MEV Protection

Foresight News reports that Polygon has announced the launch of Private Mempool, a private transaction submission endpoint designed to protect each transaction from front-running and sandwich attacks. The Private Mempool safeguards transaction order, preventing submitted transactions from being intercepted and reordered before confirmation. Courtyard requires reliable transaction inclusion, and direct integration with the producer path effectively reduces confirmation delays. The Private Mempool, offering MEV protection, is now live. Upcoming features include confidential payments, dedicated block space, and stable fees. The Private Mempool is available in a free version, accessible to all Polygon applications. The paid enterprise version offers higher throughput, rate limits, service level agreements (SLA), and redundancy mechanisms, suitable for production workloads. Access to the paid version requires an API key. Payment methods include stablecoins and POL.
