# MEV Bot - 5-Minute Production Run Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
**Test Date:** October 23, 2025
|
||||
**Duration:** 5+ minutes
|
||||
**Branch:** `feature/production-profit-optimization`
|
||||
**Status:** 🔴 **CRITICAL ISSUES FOUND**
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📊 Executive Summary
|
||||
|
||||
The 5-minute production test revealed a **catastrophic failure** in the token extraction system. While the bot successfully connects to RPC, processes blocks, and detects DEX transactions, **100% of all swap events are being rejected due to zero address corruption**.
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Value | Status |
|
||||
|--------|-------|--------|
|
||||
| **Blocks Processed** | 8,249 | ✅ Good |
|
||||
| **DEX Transactions Detected** | 855 | ✅ Good |
|
||||
| **Successfully Parsed Events** | 0 | ❌ CRITICAL |
|
||||
| **Zero Address Rejections** | 855 (100%) | ❌ CRITICAL |
|
||||
| **Arbitrage Opportunities** | 0 | ❌ CRITICAL |
|
||||
| **Success Rate** | 0.00% | ❌ CRITICAL |
|
||||
| **RPC Connection** | Stable | ✅ Good |

|
||||
## 🔴 CRITICAL ISSUE: 100% Zero Address Corruption
|
||||
|
||||
### Problem Description
|
||||
|
||||
**Every single DEX transaction** is being rejected with zero addresses for both PoolAddress, Token0, and Token1:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
REJECTED: Event with zero PoolAddress rejected
|
||||
TxHash: 0xaef6c4dff00dc5b462f3e3ecbf909cc049b6347e5ebc2b2342e01ab696998aef
|
||||
Protocol: UniversalRouter
|
||||
Type: Swap
|
||||
Token0: 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
|
||||
Token1: 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### What's Happening
|
||||
|
||||
1. **✅ DEX Detection Works:** Bot correctly identifies DEX transactions
|
||||
- UniversalRouter transactions detected
|
||||
- TraderJoe multicalls detected
|
||||
- Uniswap V2/V3 swaps detected
|
||||
- SushiSwap transactions detected
|
||||
|
||||
2. **❌ Token Extraction Fails:** Enhanced parser returns zero addresses
|
||||
- PoolAddress = 0x0000...0000 (should be actual pool contract)
|
||||
- Token0 = 0x0000...0000 (should be source token)
|
||||
- Token1 = 0x0000...0000 (should be destination token)
|
||||
|
||||
3. **❌ All Events Rejected:** Zero address validation correctly blocks corrupted events
|
||||
- 855 detections
|
||||
- 855 rejections
|
||||
- **0% success rate**
|
||||
|
||||
### Examples from Logs
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
✅ DETECTION: "DEX Transaction detected: 0x871194... -> 0xa51afa... calling execute (UniversalRouter)"
|
||||
❌ EXTRACTION: "REJECTED: Token0: 0x0000...0000, Token1: 0x0000...0000"
|
||||
|
||||
✅ DETECTION: "DEX Transaction detected: 0x1c8435... -> 0x87d663... (TraderJoeRouter) calling multicall"
|
||||
❌ EXTRACTION: "REJECTED: Token0: 0x0000...0000, Token1: 0x0000...0000"
|
||||
|
||||
✅ DETECTION: "DEX Transaction detected: 0x34ce19... -> 0x1b81d6... calling exactInputSingle (UniswapV3)"
|
||||
❌ EXTRACTION: "REJECTED: Token0: 0x0000...0000, Token1: 0x0000...0000"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔍 Root Cause Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### The Enhanced Parser Integration Is **NOT** Working
|
||||
|
||||
Despite the logs showing:
|
||||
```
|
||||
✅ ENHANCED EVENT PARSER CREATED SUCCESSFULLY
|
||||
✅ ENHANCED EVENT PARSER INJECTED INTO PIPELINE
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The enhanced parser **is not actually being used** for token extraction. Evidence:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **L2 Parser Has Working Token Extraction**
|
||||
- `pkg/arbitrum/l2_parser.go` contains `ExtractTokensFromCalldata()`
|
||||
- This method works correctly (proven in previous tests)
|
||||
- Uses proper ABI decoding for UniversalRouter, Multicall, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Event Parser Not Using L2 Parser**
|
||||
- `pkg/events/parser.go` has enhanced parser reference
|
||||
- But token extraction calls are not routing to L2 parser
|
||||
- Falls back to broken multicall.go extraction
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Multicall.go Still Being Used**
|
||||
- `pkg/calldata/multicall.go` has corrupted heuristic extraction
|
||||
- Returns zero addresses for complex calldata
|
||||
- This is what's actually being called
|
||||
|
||||
### The Integration Problem
|
||||
|
||||
The enhanced parser was created and injected, but the **actual token extraction code path** in the event processing pipeline is not calling the enhanced parser's L2 token extraction methods.
|
||||
|
||||
**Current (Broken) Flow:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
DEX Transaction Detected
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Event Created
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Token Extraction Called
|
||||
↓
|
||||
❌ STILL USES: pkg/calldata/multicall.go (heuristic extraction)
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Returns Zero Addresses
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Event Rejected
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Required (Working) Flow:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
DEX Transaction Detected
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Event Created
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Token Extraction Called
|
||||
↓
|
||||
✅ SHOULD USE: Enhanced Parser → L2 Parser → ExtractTokensFromCalldata()
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Returns Real Addresses
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Event Processed for Arbitrage
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 💡 Why This Happened
|
||||
|
||||
### Integration Was Incomplete
|
||||
|
||||
The enhanced parser integration in `pkg/monitor/concurrent.go` (lines 138-160) successfully:
|
||||
- ✅ Created the enhanced parser with L2 token extraction capability
|
||||
- ✅ Injected it into the pipeline
|
||||
- ✅ Made it available to the system
|
||||
|
||||
But it **failed to update** the actual call sites where token extraction happens:
|
||||
- ❌ `pkg/events/parser.go` - Event creation still calls old extraction
|
||||
- ❌ `pkg/calldata/swaps.go` - Swap parsing still uses multicall.go
|
||||
- ❌ `pkg/calldata/multicall.go` - Heuristic extraction still primary
|
||||
|
||||
### The Missing Link
|
||||
|
||||
The enhanced parser needs to be **called directly** during event processing, not just made available. The event parser needs code like:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
// CURRENT (Broken):
|
||||
tokens := multicall.ExtractTokensFromCalldata(tx.Data()) // ❌ Returns zeros
|
||||
|
||||
// REQUIRED (Working):
|
||||
tokens := enhancedParser.ExtractTokensFromTransaction(tx, receipt, logs) // ✅ Uses L2 parser
|
||||
```
|
||||

[ERROR] CRITICAL PARSING ALERT: Success rate 0.00% is critically low (total: 107)
|
||||
[WARN] PARSING CORRUPTION: 107 zero address events rejected (100.00% of total)
|
||||
[WARN] HIGH ERROR RATE: 100.00% parsing failures detected
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**On Every DEX Transaction:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
[INFO] DEX Transaction detected: [correct detection]
|
||||
[WARN] REJECTED: Event with zero PoolAddress rejected - [zero addresses]
|
||||
```

## 🛠️ What's Missing
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Direct Enhanced Parser Integration in Event Processing
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `pkg/events/parser.go`
|
||||
**Issue:** Token extraction not calling enhanced parser
|
||||
**Fix:** Update `ParseSwapEvent()` to use enhanced parser's L2 extraction
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Enhanced Parser Method Exposure
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `pkg/interfaces/token_extractor.go`
|
||||
**Issue:** Interface may not have correct methods exposed
|
||||
**Fix:** Ensure `ExtractTokensFromTransaction()` is in interface
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Pipeline Token Extraction Routing
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `pkg/market/pipeline.go`
|
||||
**Issue:** Pipeline not routing to enhanced parser for tokens
|
||||
**Fix:** Update event processing to call enhanced parser directly
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Fallback Removal
|
||||
|
||||
**File:** `pkg/calldata/multicall.go`
|
||||
**Issue:** Broken heuristic extraction still being used
|
||||
**Fix:** Remove as primary extraction method, use only as last resort
|
||||

|
||||
- Ensure `ExtractTokensFromCalldata()` is exposed
|
||||
- Add transaction context parameter if needed
|
||||
- Test with real UniversalRouter calldata
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Update Pipeline** (`pkg/market/pipeline.go`)
