Ordering attack prevention refers to mechanisms implemented in blockchain protocols to stop malicious actors from manipulating the sequence of transactions within a block or across blocks. These attacks, often called front-running or sandwich attacks, exploit the knowledge of pending transactions to gain an unfair advantage. Effective prevention ensures fair transaction execution for all participants. This upholds market integrity.
