Currently it supports Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain.<br>Go to<a href=\"http:\/\/check.omniatech.io\/\"> check.omniatech.io<\/a> and paste your transaction hash or connect wallet to auto-check last transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why use OMNIA\u2019s paid version instead of existing free frontrunning protection ?<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point, everyone who has previously used free solutions such as Flashbots, knows the struggle with transactions constantly being dropped. This leads to maximum frustration when you just want your DeFi transaction to be performed in a fixed opportunity time window and suddenly you need to start troubleshooting the issue, use block explorer to see if it was dropped or not, re-sign another transaction with higher gas price but take into account if it needs to keep the same nonce to override previous one, etc. You got the point, it\u2019s too complicated for the majority of users and requires technical expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>OMNIA fixes this, by having integrated a reinforced transaction logic, OMNIA RPC ensures that transactions are not dropped and are re-broadcasted&nbsp; until validators and\/or miners pick it up.&nbsp; Everything is on auto-pilot, users don\u2019t need to do anything in particular, just use OMNIA RPC.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>How can I protect myself ?<\/strong><strong><br><br><\/strong>Go to dashboard<a href=\"http:\/\/app.omniatech.io\/\"> app.omniatech.io<\/a> and generate your private endpoint for the chain &amp; network you want.
