How I Built a Production Solana Sniper Bot from Scratch

Sharing the complete architecture of a Solana token sniper that actually works in production. The Sniper System The sniper monitors for new liquidity pool creations on Raydium and PumpFun. When a new pool appears: Fetch token metadata via Helius DAS API Run quick risk checks (supply distribution, metadata flags) If checks pass, submit a buy transaction via Jito bundle Jito ensures the buy lands in the same block as the pool creation Auto-sell triggers at configurable take-profit targets Why Jito Bundles Without MEV protection, your snipe transaction can be: Front-run by sandwich bots Stuck in mempool while others get filled first Subject to unfavorable slippage Jito bundles guarantee atomic execution and tip validators for priority.
