Consensys, the blockchain and Ethereum technology company, and OKX, a global onchain technology company announce a partnership—with phase one expanding advanced security features and trading capabilities.
Consensys‘ SERVO maximum extractable value (MEV) protection is now integrated into OKX Wallet. MEV refers “to the potential value that can be extracted from blockchain transactions by front-running, sandwiching, or other manipulative practices.”
Consensys’ SERVO MEV protection solution “reduces these risks for users, providing fair and secure transactions.”
OKX Wallet is one of the first major wallets to “implement SERVO MEV protection across Ethereum and Base networks.”
OKX’s DEX API is now “incorporated into MetaMask wallet.”
For end users, this update provides access to “comprehensive, aggregated liquidity from over 500 decentralized exchanges, allowing for competitive pricing and reduced slippage.”
For developers, OKX’s DEX API delivers “enterprise-grade reliability with 99.9% uptime and robust security features, enabling any platform to deploy trading capabilities through flexible SDK, API, and widget options.”
Consensys and OKX’s partnership sees both companies “utilizing complementary strengths to bring users immediate security and trading benefits, and address fundamental industry challenges.”
This announcement represents the first phase of “a strategic partnership, with additional collaborations between Consensys and OKX planned across multiple product areas in the coming months.”
