a dev told me "the sniper is just another user" and it freaked me out, because its true 

and that user is also hunting me for sport

Yea I think having a publicly available tool that would let non devs snipe if they want to would be useful as a way to level the playing field.

Sniping only works so well because of limited competition.

cool! 

we actually could allow buy on launch immediately, but we need a wallet and I'm reluctant to involve a frame during deployment

have to keep it simple. sniping is always going to exist in some form but we can improve on current dynamic

6 eth in snipes on the one I launched this morning. They are multiplying.

FWIW, I have a dev who may be making a publicly available snipe tool. To even the playing field…

Can’t ever design out the bots though

They are users too

It’s MEV, the sniper is hoping to catch a coin that will go up a lot to profit

We’ll add buy on deploy asap to allow users to front run sniper

there is a wallet which literally snipes almost every clanker token and sells it for x2-x3 continuously, does it basically makes money on people who entered after that wallet?

You can work out the CA ahead of time. Note the block number here. 

This is how 1 bot is getting in the same block as the contract deployment. It spams tx's with the possible salts. 

Having a completely random salt might help here. Maybe looking at a chainlink RNG call to get it.

Interesting, quite a clever move, only possible due to low gas fee!

Why not utilize a timer similar to g8keep?

sniper buy 6k and dumping everybody. just blacklist who buy more than 3k first tnx, add eth to liquid
