./mev-bot start

3. Verify Discovery

# Expected: 250-400+ pools
jq 'length' data/pools.json

🔍 Verification Commands

# Check build
ls -lh ./mev-bot

# Verify token count
grep -c "0x" internal/tokens/arbitrum.go  # Should be 20

# Check documentation
ls -lh docs/*TOKEN*.md docs/IMPLEMENTATION*.md

# View pairs discovered (after startup)
jq 'group_by(.dex) | map({dex: .[0].dex, count: length})' data/pools.json

Current Blocker

RPC 403 Error:

Error: websocket: bad handshake (HTTP status 403 Forbidden)

Solution: Configure valid RPC endpoint (see step 1 above)

    • Complete list of 190 pairs
    • Token addresses
    • Testing procedures
    • Troubleshooting guide

    • Automated verification
    • 20+ checks

💡 Tips

  • First Run: Discovery takes 2-5 minutes (one-time)
  • Subsequent Runs: Instant (loads from cache)
  • Monitor Logs: tail -f logs/mev_bot.log
  • Check Errors: grep ERROR logs/mev_bot.log

🎯 Success Metrics

After 24 hours, expect:

  • 5-10x more arbitrage opportunities detected
  • New profitable pairs identified
  • Stable operation with 250-400+ pools
  • No performance degradation

🆘 Troubleshooting

Discovery times out

→ Increase timeout in cmd/mev-bot/main.go:287

Few pools discovered

→ Check RPC rate limits, use premium endpoint

Bot won't start

→ Verify RPC credentials, check firewall

No arbitrage opportunities

→ Normal, market efficiency means opportunities are rare (0.0001% success rate)
