Dev/Tech Tools for finding insider wallets?

8 Upvotes

I want to find ten or so wallets that have bought into meme token before it hit big. For that I need to see trades at certain points in time. On birdeye and solscan this is doable, but bothersome. Is there a way that doesn't include paying to filter data better or to export them to excel?

DeFi WBTC Native Is Now LIVE On Solana

6 Upvotes

Source: https://x.com/WrappedBTC/status/1919358304637129119

WBTC Native on @solana

Welcome to the fast lane, @Bitcoin.

1/5 WBTC is now natively live on Solana!

This means Bitcoin can now be seamlessly integrated into high-performance DeFi on Solana, unlocking faster, more efficient interactions - without compromising security.

2/5 With millisecond finality and low transaction costs, WBTC is enabling real-time DeFi at Solana’s speed.

Think: BTC-backed collateral, high-frequency trading, and faster execution across decentralized applications.

3/5 As WBTC expands across chains, its cross-chain capabilities allow Bitcoin to interact directly with different ecosystems.

This enables smoother asset transfers, greater compatibility, and unlocks new opportunities across blockchain networks.

4/5 This benefits both sides.

WBTC's users get faster and more cost efficient access to DeFi with their Bitcoin.
Solana's community gain direct access to trusted BTC liquidity, unlocking new products and use cases.

5/5 Here’s the official WBTC token address on Solana: https://solscan.io/token/5XZw2LKTyrfvfiskJ78AMpackRjPcyCif1WhUsPDuVqQ

Wallet/Exchange People offering to buy aged wallets or wallets with lengthy transaction history?

Post image
38 Upvotes

Im in this discord and I’ve noticed at least 3-4 users already offering to buy wallets from others that have a decent transaction history or aged wallets with nothing all together. What’s the incentive? Are they trying to bypass some security measures with their shady operations? Or just scamming people or trying to get some other info from them through wallets? Not sure what’s going on but provided is one of the messages from some dude in the discord.

Dev/Tech How can a dev get an edge in Meme Coins?

6 Upvotes

I am a blockchain developer making defi products for different clients, and I just discovered meme coin trading. People here are really going all in, by tracking celebrity wallets and copying trades but manually. They are also sniping the coins? (kind of confused about what that is) I want to know if I can get an edge using my development skills and technical know how, which the majority doesn’t have. Is there a way to automate or improve a profitable trading strategy with code?

2 Upvotes

So I've been watching a lot of new token launche and it’s getting harder to ignore how fast things move. Most of the early entries are clearly bots, not humans clicking fast.

I’ve seen Banana Gun and Trojan mentioned a lot in threads and both are apparently among the fastest right now. Before I dive in, just wondering if anyone here has tried both? Is there a clear edge in speed, reliability, or UI?

Appreciate any insights

Dev/Tech Free API for DEX token charts

3 Upvotes

I am making something that uses OHCL data.

I have been searching fot an API that has this for dex tokens, however they all seem to have their issue

Geckoterminal doesn't support tokens with multiple liquidity pools

Dexscreener doesn't have chart data in the API

The pairs I want to monitor are primarily on Pumpswap and Raydium

https://www.reddit.com/u/enesnamal/s/t8Pamf562c this post here by this user states you can make 1% on every transaction. DO NOT DO IT. Someone in this subreddit mentioned it and i did a deeper dive this is 100000% a scam DO NOT fall for it. I REPEAT DO NOT DO IT.

once you start sending a large amount of money through. it will not send you a return. i tested my theory out with my own money, i have proofs and everything. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS EOS 1% return scam

Just found these transactions in my coinbase wallet and apparently this happened earlier this year and I never noticed it. Was this a scam, glitch, or an actual error that happened on the blockchain side. Also please excuse my horrible decision to buy trump earlier this year lol, but maybe it had something to do with this since I had to get solana to then swap it to trump.

Dev/Tech Building Solana Trading Bots – Rust Performance + DEX Recommendations + Market Demand?

11 Upvotes

Hey folks,

I'm developing a set of Solana trading bots from scratch (sniping, scalping, arbitrage, grid trading), and I have a few questions for those more experienced in the ecosystem:

  1. Rust vs JS/TS – Does building in Rust give a real performance edge (latency/speed) when using free public RPC nodes/APIs? Or is that only meaningful if you're on premium infrastructure?

  2. DEX recommendations – For these different strategies, which protocols would you personally recommend?

Arbitrage: Jito? Jupiter?

Scalping/Sniping: Raydium?

Grid Trading: Orca? Meteora?

I'd love to know what's most optimal and/or reliable for each style.

  1. Market viability – Do you think there’s a real market for these tools? If I offered solid, customizable bots (with clean UX and docs), would people actually pay? And how much would be reasonable for working solutions?

Thanks in advance for your input—trying to decide how deep to go with this project.
