I Sniped a Solana Token in 400ms — Here's the Full Tech Stack When the new WEN token launched on Solana last month, I managed to snipe it in just 400ms after liquidity was added. Here's the exact technical stack that made this possible, with code samples and hard-won lessons from the frontlines of Solana MEV. The MEV Landscape on Solana Solana's MEV game operates at a different timescale than Ethereum. Where Ethereum block times are 12 seconds, Solana produces blocks every 400ms. This means our entire snipe workflow - from detecting liquidity to submitting transactions - needs to complete in less than one slot time. The key components we'll use: Jito MEV Bundles for guaranteed transaction inclusion Jupiter API for optimal routing Helius RPC for low-latency data WebSocket subscriptions for real-time monitoring 1. Monitoring Liquidity Pools in Real-Time The first challenge is detecting when liquidity is added.…
