Snipers & Holders
Step 6 of the pipeline promises visibility into external bots — this is that view.
How it works
The engine scans the token's Transfer events and reconstructs the holder set:
- Circulating supply — minted minus burned/curve-held
- External holders — every EOA outside your bundle, with balance and % of circulating
- Sniper flag — holders above a threshold share are marked so you can see concentrated risk
Infrastructure addresses (curve contract, pool manager, Permit2-style spenders) are filtered out so the table shows actors, not plumbing.
Reading it
- One external holding 100% means nobody else bought — you are alone on the curve.
- Several 2–5% externals appearing at launch are classic snipers; watch whether they add or unwind.
- Your own bundle wallets are listed separately — the table distinguishes your distribution from theirs.
Standalone mode
The same reconstruction runs in the browser against the public RPC — a backward scan from head that stops at the mint event (capped at ~480k blocks to stay fast). You get the same table without the engine.
