- If compromised, your wallet is drained

FRB Agent
- Private key stays on your Windows machine
- Local encrypted bridge — key never transmitted
- Authenticode-signed, SHA-256 verified

Solana MEV: Jito Bundle Advantage
The biggest technical advantage FRB has over BONKbot on Solana is Jito bundle submission.
What Are Jito Bundles?
Jito bundles allow you to submit transactions directly to Solana validators, bypassing the public transaction queue. Benefits:
- Priority execution — your TX is included ahead of public transactions
- Atomic bundles — multiple transactions execute together or not at all
- MEV protection — your trade intent isn't visible to other searchers

|---|---|---|
| Submission | Jito private bundles | Standard RPC |
| Visibility | Private | Public |
| Inclusion Rate | 94.1% | Variable |
