According to a report by Jinse Finance, based on EigenPhi data, sandwich attacks on the Ethereum network in 2025 have caused users to lose nearly $40 million. Although the monthly trading volume on decentralized exchanges (DEX) soared from $65 billion to over $100 billion, the scale of profits from these attacks has dropped significantly.
Monthly profits from sandwich attacks fell from around $10 million at the end of 2024 to just $2.5 million in October 2025, while the frequency of attacks remained high at 60,000 to 90,000 times per month.
Most notably, 38% of attacks targeted low-volatility liquidity pools such as stablecoins and wrapped assets, and 12% of attacks were aimed at stablecoin swap pools—scenarios where slippage exceeded expectations, resulting in particularly severe losses.
The average profit per sandwich attack was only $3, and throughout 2025, only 6 attackers had cumulative profits exceeding $10,000.
