@ekubo/atomic-arbitrage-bot

Simple bot that regularly checks for the availability of atomic arbitrage using the Ekubo API and executes it.

Disclaimer

The purpose of this repository is demonstration only. It demonstrates sending a swap transaction to Ekubo and using the free, public routing API to compute and execute atomic arbitrage opportunities.

It can be improved in a number of important ways, including:

• The bot does not account for gas, so it is not always profitable
• Arbitrage could be done in the context of a lock without ever holding the token--this would mean you can arbitrage tokens without ever holding them
• The free, public quoting API has multiple layers of caching. Arbitrage quotes may already be stale and fail when executed with low slippage tolerance

Instructions

• npm install
• Copy .env.local.example to .env.local
• Add the private key of the arbitrage account
• Tune other .env parameters to your liking
  • Example parameters are for sepolia
• Run npm start
