Solana Arbitrage Bot

Solana Logo

A high-performance arbitrage bot for Solana decentralized exchanges (DEXs).


📞📞📞

🚀 Overview

This Solana Arbitrage Bot monitors multiple decentralized exchanges on the Solana blockchain to identify and exploit profitable arbitrage opportunities. It leverages the speed and efficiency of Solana to execute trades with minimal latency.


✨ Features

  • Real-Time Arbitrage Detection: Continuously scans and identifies price discrepancies across multiple DEXs.
  • High Performance: Built using Solana's high-speed architecture for near-instantaneous transactions.
  • Flexible Exchange Support: Easily extensible to include additional DEXs.
  • Secure: Implements robust error handling and transaction safety checks.
  • Customizable Parameters: Adjust thresholds and strategies to match your goals.

🛠️ Tech Stack

  • Language: TypeScript
  • Blockchain: Solana
  • Frameworks:
    • @solana/web3.js (Solana SDK)
    • Serum API (for DEX integrations)
  • Additional Libraries:
    • Node.js
    • WebSocket for live updates
    • Axios for API calls

📚 Prerequisites

To run this bot, ensure you have the following:

  1. Node.js (v16 or later)
  2. Yarn (or npm, if preferred)
  3. A Solana wallet with RPC node access (e.g., QuickNode, Alchemy, or your own setup).
  4. Basic familiarity with Solana and cryptocurrency trading.

🚀 Installation & Setup

1. Clone the Repository:

git clone https://github.com/your-username/solana-arbitrage-bot.git
cd solana-arbitrage-bot

2. Install Dependencies:

yarn install

3. Configure Environment Variables:

Create a .env file in the root directory and add the following:

RPC_URL=https://your-solana-rpc-url
PRIVATE_KEY=your-wallet-private-key
ARBITRAGE_THRESHOLD=0.05

4. Run the Bot:

yarn start

⚙️ Configuration

  • RPC_URL: Your Solana RPC endpoint for blockchain interaction.
  • PRIVATE_KEY: The private key of your Solana wallet (ensure this is kept secure).
  • ARBITRAGE_THRESHOLD: Minimum percentage profit to trigger an arbitrage trade.

You can adjust other parameters in the config.ts file.


🧠 How It Works

  1. Data Collection: The bot fetches order book data from supported DEXs using Serum and Solana SDK.
  2. Profit Calculation: It calculates arbitrage opportunities based on price discrepancies.
  3. Trade Execution: Executes the profitable trades using your Solana wallet.

🛡️ Security Tips

  • Always use a dedicated wallet with minimal funds.
  • Avoid running the bot on shared or insecure environments.
  • Monitor your RPC usage to avoid rate-limiting issues.

📈 Roadmap

  • Add support for additional Solana DEXs (e.g., Orca, Raydium).
  • Implement advanced strategies (e.g., triangular arbitrage).
  • Improve performance for high-frequency trading.
  • Add a graphical user interface (GUI).
