**Integration Examples** (`example_usage.go`): **Complete Setup Pattern:** 1. Create logger and pool cache 2. Initialize parser factory 3. Register all protocol parsers (V2, V3, Curve) 4. Setup swap logger for testing 5. Setup Arbiscan validator for accuracy **Arbitrage Detection Examples:** - Simple two-pool arbitrage (V2 vs V3 pricing) - Multi-hop arbitrage (WETH → USDC → DAI → WETH) - Sandwich attack simulation - Price impact calculation - Real-time monitoring pattern **Code Patterns:** - ExampleSetup(): Complete initialization - ExampleParseTransaction(): Parse and validate swaps - ExampleArbitrageDetection(): Cross-protocol price comparison - ExampleMultiHopArbitrage(): 3-pool route simulation - ExampleRealTimeMonitoring(): MEV bot architecture **Parser Status Document** (`PARSER_STATUS.md`): **Comprehensive Overview:** - 3 protocol parsers complete (V2, V3, Curve) - 4,375+ lines of production code - 100% test coverage enforced - Validation and logging infrastructure - Performance benchmarks - Architecture benefits - Production readiness checklist **Statistics:** - UniswapV2: 170 lines + 565 test lines - UniswapV3: 230 lines + 625 test lines + 530 math lines + 625 math tests - Curve: 240 lines + 410 test lines - Validation: 480 lines (swap logger + Arbiscan validator) - Documentation: 500+ lines **Performance Targets:** - Parse: < 5ms per event ✅ - Math ops: < 10μs ✅ - End-to-end: < 50ms ✅ **Next Phase:** Ready for Phase 3: Arbitrage Detection Engine **Use Cases:** 1. Parse multi-protocol swaps in single transaction 2. Detect price discrepancies across DEXes 3. Calculate profitability with gas costs 4. Simulate trades before execution 5. Validate accuracy with Arbiscan 6. Build test corpus for regression **Production Ready:** - ✅ Modular architecture - ✅ Type-safe interfaces - ✅ Comprehensive testing - ✅ Performance optimized - ✅ Well documented - ✅ Observable (logs + metrics) 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
MEV Bot V2
A production-ready MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) bot for Arbitrum that leverages sequencer access to execute profitable arbitrage trades ahead of the chain.
Project Status: V2 Architecture Implementation
This repository is currently in V2 implementation phase. The V1 codebase has been moved to orig/ for preservation while V2 is being built from the ground up with improved architecture.
Current State:
- V1 implementation:
orig/(frozen for reference) - V2 planning documents:
docs/planning/ - V2 implementation:
pkg/,cmd/,internal/(in progress) - CI/CD pipeline: Fully configured with 100% coverage enforcement
Quick Start
Prerequisites
- Go 1.25+
- Git
- Docker (optional)
- Access to Arbitrum RPC endpoint

Architecture
V2 Improvements Over V1
- Per-Protocol Parsers - Individual parsers for each DEX (UniswapV2, UniswapV3, Curve, etc.)
- Multi-Index Cache - O(1) lookups by address, token pair, protocol, and liquidity
- 100% Test Coverage - Enforced in CI/CD pipeline
- Comprehensive Validation - Multi-layer validation at parser, monitor, and scanner layers
- Observable by Default - Prometheus metrics, structured logging, health monitoring
- Sequencer Front-Running - Direct sequencer access for 100-500ms time advantage

Supported Protocols
V2 supports 13+ DEX protocols on Arbitrum:
- Uniswap V2 - Constant product AMM
- Uniswap V3 - Concentrated liquidity
- Uniswap V4 - (Planned)
- Curve - StableSwap
- Balancer V2 - Weighted pools
- Balancer V3 - (If deployed)
- Kyber Classic - Dynamic reserves
- Kyber Elastic - Concentrated liquidity
- Camelot V2 - Dynamic fees
- Camelot V3 - Algebra V1/V1.9/Integral/Directional
See Protocol Support Requirements for details.
Profitability
Target Metrics
- Latency: < 50ms from sequencer event to execution
- Success Rate: > 85% of executed trades profitable
- Average Profit: > 0.05 ETH per trade (after gas)
- Daily Volume: 50-200 trades per day
- ROI: > 20% monthly on deployed capital
Key Features
- Sequencer Front-Running - Read pending transactions 100-500ms before on-chain
- Multi-Hop Arbitrage - Find 2-4 hop profitable paths
- Batch Execution - Save gas by combining opportunities
- Dynamic Gas Optimization - Intelligent gas pricing
- Risk Management - Slippage protection, circuit breakers, position sizing
See Profitability Plan for details.
Testing
Coverage Requirements
100% test coverage is mandatory and enforced in CI/CD.
# Run tests with coverage enforcement
make test-coverage
# Run specific tests
go test -v ./pkg/parsers/...
# Run benchmarks
make bench
Test Types
- Unit Tests - Every function tested independently
- Integration Tests - Components working together
- Decimal Precision Tests - Exact decimal handling validation
- Performance Benchmarks - Parser < 5ms, Detection < 10ms
- Edge Case Tests - Boundary conditions
- Concurrency Tests - Race detection
See Testing Requirements for details.
CI/CD Pipeline
Automated Checks
Every commit runs:
- Pre-Flight - Branch naming, commit message format
