Some traders hoping to snipe new tokens launched by Poo Finance (yes, really) decided to try to use a MEV bot to snag priority ordering compared to other pending blockchain transactions. They spent a combined 240 ETH ($440,000) to be spent on the tokens and on bribes paid to the bot. However, the bot sent the tokens to the wrong Uniswap pool, ultimately obtaining only 4 ETH ($7,300) of Poo Finance tokens.

Total loss estimated at $440,000.
