Bootstrap your MEV bot strategies with a simple boilerplate to build on top of.

MEV Template

A template to build a MEV bot from.

How to expand on this template

I wrote an article How To Build A MEV Bot that explains the overall architecture you need to think of to build a bot - from getting a strategy, fetching data, etc.

Quick Start

• Get a node from QuickNode as they have a free websocket option or you can run your own node.
• Import your EOA priv key for the bot to execute transactions.
• Add your discord websocket to send alerts to.
• For testing, run cargo run
• For production, run cargo run --release

Features

• Simple discord message system.
• Historic block function caller.
• Uniswap amountIn + amountOut functions
• Contract ABI binding.
• Template contract
  • Uniswap getters.
  • Withdraw ERC20 + ETH functions.

Testing Onchain Data

Setting up environment:

• Install python3: pip install.
• Install modules: pip install web3.
• Run: python3 block_history.py.

5 main components to consider:

• provider: Which chain is being utilised.
• abi: The contract interface to interact with.
• block: Which mined block you're calling from (can be past block).
• contract address: Contract address to call.
• function call: Function to call from the contract address.
