Releases: JohnBasrai/mempool-vortex
v0.2.0 – MEV Simulation Pipeline (Tech Preview)
This version simulates an end-to-end MEV pipeline in Rust, including tx classification, bundle construction, and multi-relay submission logic (Flashbots, bloXroute, Eden). It is not production-ready, but demonstrates architectural design and understanding of MEV systems.
🚀 Overview
This release introduces the first complete MEV execution pipeline, enabling simulation of arbitrage, sandwich, and liquidation strategies using live mempool data — all in Rust.
✨ Features
-
🧠 MEV Opportunity Detection
Detects and classifies mempool transactions into MEV strategies:- Arbitrage across AMMs (Uniswap V2/V3)
- Sandwich attacks
- Liquidation triggers
-
📦 Bundle Simulation & Submission
Constructs and simulates MEV bundles for:- Flashbots
- bloXroute
- Eden
-
🧪 Simulation Mode
Use--simulateto test bundle construction without on-chain submission. -
🎮 CLI Enhancements
--addr-style short|fullfor address formatting--color auto|always|neverfor log control--max-txto cap transaction processing
-
🔍 Live Mempool Listener
Parses and logs tx details in real-time using a structured pipeline. -
🛠️ Scaffolding
Foundation for config loading, metrics collection, and integration testing.
🐛 Fixes
- Fixed:
AddrStylemove issue causing async logger panic. - Cleaned startup logic for better
.envfallback handling.
🧭 Roadmap
Planned for future releases:
- Integration test suite
- Config file support
- Relay authentication (live submission)
- Strategy risk/profit constraints
- Prometheus-compatible metrics
📦 Installation
Clone and run:
cargo run -- --simulate --max-tx 25Ensure .env contains:
ETH_RPC_URL=wss://<your-sepolia-or-mainnet-endpoint>🧪 Example Output
🔍 tx: from=0xabc…1234 → to=0xdef…5678, value=0.42 ETH, gas_price=10.2 gwei

⚠️ Known Limitations
This release includes a number of compiler warnings related to unused fields, enums, and functions. These reflect planned but incomplete features (e.g. full relay support, metrics, configuration loading).
This release was intentionally tagged with warnings as a temporary stabilization point, allowing future implementation and cleanup work to proceed incrementally from a known-good baseline.
The following areas are known to produce warnings:
- Unused fields in
MEVBundleandRelayConfig - Placeholder methods in
MEVMetricsandConfig - Enum variants (
CompoundSupply,AaveBorrow) not yet constructed - Unused function:
validate_bundle()
Cleanup and implementation work is tracked in follow-up issues.
