How 1inch Fusion and MEV Blocker differ on type, protection, rebates and what they’re built for.
| 1inch Fusion | MEV Blocker | |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Intent DEX | Private RPC |
| How it works | You sign an order (intent) rather than broadcasting a public tx; resolvers compete to execute it on-chain, absorbing MEV risk and often improving your price. Failed orders cost no gas. | Routes your transaction through a searcher auction instead of the public mempool; searchers bid for the right to back-run it and rebate up to 90% of the profit to you automatically. |
| Protects against | Sandwiching/frontrunning via off-chain intents | Frontrunning & sandwiching on any Ethereum dApp |
| Rebates | Better execution price instead of a cash rebate | Up to 90% of back-run value, auto-deposited |
| Chains | Ethereum + major L2s | Ethereum |
| Setup | Swap on 1inch with Fusion mode | Add RPC rpc.mevblocker.io to your wallet |
| Best for | Swappers who want gasless, protected trades | Everyday wallets that want rebates |
Pick 1inch Fusion for swappers who want gasless, protected trades; pick MEV Blocker for everyday wallets that want rebates.
