Baiting MEV Bots: UniV2 Token Trapper
So many MEV bots take money from people but why don't people take money from them? I always thought about this when I was in my web3 cybersec assembly arc. I got quite fascinated with reverse engineering them and the contracts they interected with and realised there are some interesting things you can do with the uniswap code, since it has a few assumptions with the tokens you provide to create the pairs. Although not very practical it's definitely an intereting thought experiment that can provoke some further creativity!

Generating Custom Assembly Smart Contracts
2 years ago I wrote a component that allowed me to generate any custom assembly smart contract on the fly to automatically create exploits without needing to do any manual work. I had a montiroing system that would provide the inputs and the bytecode generator would chug along and spit out an executable program that I could deploy and call on with a bundle of transactions. In this article I'll share the core of that codebase to get you up to speed! Buckle up, anon. There isn't any other article like this revealing these trade secrets!

How To Build a MEV Bot
So, you've been doing too much PvE and want to get into the on-chain PvP scene. Be wary traveler, this is a lonely environment to be in if you're playing solo. You will spend months building to upkeep your infrastructure to stay competitive in the MEV world on Ethereum, unless you find a very niche strategy. However, the booty is high and mighty if you manage to pull it off! If that sounds like something you want to do, continue on.

Memware: Generalised Frontrunners
If there was malware native to crypto, it would be generalised frontrunners (GFs). These pesky critters analyse each transaction that enters the mempool, and like sharks, detecting vulnerable pending transactions, striking when they observe a profitable transaction. In this article we'll unravel, step-by-step, how one of these sophiscated creatures work in hopes to shed light on the depths of the mempool.

Swimming Safely In The Public Mempool: MEV Smart Contract Obfuscation Techniques
In blockchain, generalized frontrunners in MEV abuse the well-known standards of smart contract, therefore obfuscation techniques are essential for MEV operators. Over the past year I've created some zero-day techniques for avoiding these sharks in the mempool of Ethereum and all other existing blockchains in web3. Whether you're a semi-vet like DeGatchi or are just starting in the the MEV world of ETH, you are able to deploy these obfuscation techniques on day 1 to potentially gain an edge on your competition. Godspeed, anon!
