A crypto user lost $50 million attempting to swap USDT for AAVE on SushiSwap via CoW Protocol, receiving only $36,000 in AAVE. A MEV bot compounded the damage with a sandwich attack, flash-borrowing $29 million and earning a $9.9 million profit. This incident highlights the need for real-time trading protection tools, like DeepSnitch AI, which has raised $2.1 million in presale funding to prevent similar losses.
