Solana Sniper Bot

Proof of concept - 2023-04-20

This code is written as proof of concept for demonstrating how we can buy new tokens immediately after liquidity pool is created.

Script listens to new raydium USDC pools and buys token for a fixed amount in USDC. Depending on speed of RPC node, the purchase usually happens before token is available on Raydium for swapping.

Setup

In order to run the script you need to:

• Create a new empty Solana wallet
• Transfer some SOL to it.
• Convert some SOL to USDC.
  • We need USDC because the script is buying USDC pairs.
• Set your PRIVATE_KEY, RPC_ENDPOINT and RPC_WEBSOCKET_ENDPOINT in the .env file (remove the .copy from the file name when done)
• Install dependencies by typing: npm install
• Run the script by typing: npm run buy in terminal
