# MEV Bot - Critical Blockers Summary (QUICK REFERENCE)
|
||||
|
||||
## Executive Summary
|
||||
**Zero profitable executions. System detects opportunities but fails to execute. 10 critical blockers identified.**
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Problem In One Sentence
|
||||
Token amounts extracted from swap events are ZERO, causing profit rejection for all opportunities before they reach the execution layer.
|
||||

|

## 10 CRITICAL BLOCKERS
|
||||
|
||||
| # | Blocker | Impact | Location | Fix Time |
|
||||
|---|---------|--------|----------|----------|

|
||||
|
||||
## Root Cause Chain
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Event Parser Extracts ZERO amounts
|
||||
↓
|
||||
2. Profit Calculator Receives ZERO values
|
||||
↓
|
||||
3. Profit Margin = negative / 0 = EXTREME VALUE
|
||||
↓
|
||||
4. Bounds Check Rejects (< -1.0)
|
||||
↓
|
||||
5. Marked: isExecutable = false
|
||||
↓
|
||||
6. Execution Loop Never Triggered
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Result: ZERO PROFITS, ZERO EXECUTIONS
|
||||
```

|

|
||||
## Most Critical Fixes (Priority Order)
|
||||
|
||||
### FIX #1: Event Parser (2-4 hours)
|
||||
**File:** `pkg/events/parser.go` or `pkg/arbitrum/parser/core.go`
|
||||
**Problem:** Swap event amounts are extracted as ZERO
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
- Validate event signature matching
|
||||
- Fix decimal handling in amount conversion
|
||||
- Test with real Arbitrum swap transactions
|
||||
|
||||
### FIX #2: Token Graph (1-2 hours)
|
||||
**File:** `pkg/arbitrage/multihop.go:522-594`
|
||||
**Problem:** Token graph has only 8 hardcoded pools with placeholder data
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
- Link 314 cached pools to token graph
|
||||
- Implement pool discovery loop
|
||||
- Verify minimum 20 tokens, 50 pools
|
||||
|
||||
### FIX #3: Execution Pipeline (2-3 hours)
|
||||
**File:** `pkg/arbitrage/service.go`
|
||||
**Problem:** Detected opportunities are never executed
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
- Connect opportunity forwarder to executor
|
||||
- Implement execution goroutine
|
||||
- Add transaction monitoring
|
||||

||||
## Evidence From Logs
|
||||
|
||||
### Zero Amounts in Opportunities
|
||||
```
|
||||
2025/11/02 15:22:33 [OPPORTUNITY] Amount In: 0.000000 tokens
|
||||
Amount Out: 0.000000 tokens
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Automatic Rejection
|
||||
```
|
||||
rejectReason:negative profit after gas and slippage costs
|
||||
profitMargin:-330178.9776420681 (EXTREME NEGATIVE)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Zero Execution Stats
|
||||
```
|
||||
2025/11/02 15:22:38 [INFO] Arbitrage Service Stats
|
||||
Detected: 0
|
||||
Executed: 0
|
||||
Successful: 0
|
||||
Success Rate: 0.00%
|
||||
Total Profit: 0.000000 ETH
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### BatchFetch Failures
|
||||
```
|
||||
2025/11/02 15:22:49 [WARN] Failed to fetch batch 0-1: execution reverted
|
||||
(repeated 25+ times)
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## System Status
|
||||
|
||||
| Component | Status | Evidence |
|
||||
|-----------|--------|----------|
|
||||
| Detection Engine | ✅ WORKING | Detects multiple opportunities/minute |
|
||||
| Amount Extraction | ❌ BROKEN | All amounts = 0.000000 |
|
||||
| Profit Calculation | ❌ BROKEN | Uses invalid amounts |
|
||||
| Execution Pipeline | ❌ DISCONNECTED | No executor calls |
|
||||
| Token Graph | ❌ INCOMPLETE | 8 hardcoded pools only |
|
||||
| Pool State Fetch | ❌ FAILING | BatchFetch contract reverts |
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## What Works vs What Doesn't
|
||||
|
||||
### What's Working ✅
|
||||
- RPC connection to Arbitrum
|
||||
- Event monitoring and parsing (structure is correct)
|
||||
- Opportunity detection (finds swaps correctly)
|
||||
- Pool caching (314 pools cached)
|
||||
- Key generation and wallet setup
|
||||
|
||||
### What's Broken ❌
|
||||
- Token amount extraction (shows as 0.000000)
|
||||
- Profit margin calculation (extreme values)
|
||||
- Token graph initialization (empty/incomplete)
|
||||
- Batch pool data fetching (contract calls fail)
|
||||
- Execution connection (never triggered)
|
||||
- Flash executor integration (dormant)
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Diagnosis Steps
|
||||
|
||||
Run these to verify the blockers:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# 1. Check event parser is extracting zero amounts
|
||||
grep "Amount In: 0.000000" logs/mev_bot.log | wc -l
|
||||
# Expected: 50+ (confirms Blocker #1)
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Check token graph connectivity
|
||||
grep "has no adjacent tokens" logs/mev_bot.log
|
||||
# Expected: Found (confirms Blocker #2)
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. Check batch fetcher failures
|
||||
grep "batch fetch V3 data failed" logs/mev_bot.log | wc -l
|
||||
# Expected: 20+ (confirms Blocker #3)
|
||||
|
||||
# 4. Check zero executions
|
||||
grep "Executed: 0" logs/mev_bot.log | wc -l
|
||||
# Expected: All recent stats (confirms Blocker #6)
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Expected Outcome After Fixes
|
||||
|
||||
After fixing blockers #1-2 (4-6 hours):
|
||||
- Token amounts extracted correctly
|
||||
- Token graph has 20+ tokens with 50+ pools
|
||||
- Profit calculator receives valid amounts
|
||||
- 50%+ of opportunities marked as executable
|
||||
|
||||
After fixing blocker #6 (2-3 hours):
|
||||
- Execution pipeline triggers for valid opportunities
|
||||
- First profitable trade executes
|
||||
- System achieves positive P&L
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. **DEBUG:** Add logging to event parser to verify amount extraction
|
||||
2. **FIX:** Correct the amount extraction logic in parser
|
||||
3. **VALIDATE:** Confirm profit calculations use non-zero amounts
|
||||
4. **CONNECT:** Wire opportunity detection to execution pipeline
|
||||
5. **TEST:** Execute first successful arbitrage trade
