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.
