Start Anvil fork (forked from Arbitrum mainnet) ↓ 2. Build and start MEV Bot V2 ↓ 3. Bot discovers pools (should find 20-50 pools) ↓ 4. Bot connects to WebSocket (sequencer reader) ↓ 5. Create test swap on forked chain ↓ 6. Bot detects swap in pending transactions ↓ 7. Bot parses swap event ↓ 8. Bot detects arbitrage opportunity ↓ 9. Bot calculates profitability ↓ 10. Bot executes front-run transaction (if profitable) ↓ 11. Verify execution in logs and metrics ``` ### Success Criteria 1. ✅ Bot starts without compilation errors 2. ⏳ Pools discovered (pools_cached > 0) 3. ⏳ WebSocket connected (connected to sequencer) 4. ⏳ Test swaps detected (tx_processed increases) 5. ⏳ Opportunities found (opportunities_found > 0) 6. ⏳ Executions attempted (executions_attempted > 0) 7. ⏳ Metrics accessible (http://localhost:9090/metrics) --- ## 📈 Performance Targets | Metric | Target | Measured | Status | |--------|--------|----------|--------| | Parse Latency | < 5ms | TBD | ⏳ | | Detect Latency | < 10ms | TBD | ⏳ | | Execute Latency | < 30ms | TBD | ⏳ | | Total Latency | < 50ms | TBD | ⏳ | | Throughput | > 100 tx/sec | TBD | ⏳ | | Memory Usage | < 500MB | TBD | ⏳ | | CPU Usage | < 50% (4 cores) | TBD | ⏳ | *TBD = To Be Determined during local testing* --- ## 🔄 Integration Architecture ``` ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ MEV Bot V2 │ │ │ │ ┌─────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌────────────┐ │ │ │ Sequencer │─────>│ Parser │─────>│ Validator │ │ │ │ Reader │ │ Factory │ │ │ │ │ │ (WebSocket) │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └─────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ ▼ │ │ │ ┌──────────────┐ ┌────────────┐ │ │ │ │ Pool Cache │◄─────│ Discovery │ │ │ │ │ (Multi-Index)│ │ │ │ │ │ └──────────────┘ └────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ ▼ │ │ ┌─────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌────────────┐ │ │ │ Arbitrage │◄─────│ Path Finder │ │ Calculator │ │ │ │ Detector │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └─────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ ▼ │ │ ┌─────────────┐ ┌──────────────┐ ┌────────────┐ │ │ │ Executor │◄─────│ Builder │ │ Risk │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ Manager │ │ │ └─────────────┘ └──────────────┘ └────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ ▼ ▼ │ │ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Flashloan Manager │ │ │ │ (Aave V3, Uniswap V3, Uniswap V2) │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ │ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Arbitrum RPC / Sequencer │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ │ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Prometheus Metrics (Port 9090) │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` --- ## 🎓 Quick Start See **QUICKSTART.md** for detailed instructions.
