[SIMD-CHAT]
Create a detailed technical report in English for building 'Everted Hand Swarm', a real-time Solana memecoin analytics dashboard. It uses Solana RPC PublicNode (https://solana-rpc.publicnode.com and WebSocket) and DexScreener API, plus suitable backend and database technologies. The report must cover:
- Auto-discovery of wallets and real buy/sell transactions on Solana memecoins.
- Wallet monitoring options for 10, 50, or 100 wallets.
- Automatic and manual watchlist management.
- Live transaction feed showing wallet addresses, token contract addresses, price, volume, and profit & loss calculations.
- Leaderboards for profit, most-held tokens, and alerts for whale accumulations.
- UI design guidelines: dark cyberpunk theme, responsive layout, with live notifications.
- Project audit steps, fix simulation features, ensure all buttons and functions are operational.
- Prioritize free service usage, security, automatic reconnects, and precise calculations.
- Clear explanation of limitations of free Solana RPC services.
- Testing methods and best security practices.

0. How to read this report
Each substantive statement is tagged with one of these labels:
| Tag | Meaning |
|---|---|
| [FACT] | Stated in a primary source linked inline, or seen directly in a live probe described in §0.1. |
| [OBSERVED] | Seen in our own short live probe on 2026-10-16 (§0.1). It is real, but it comes from one sample, so treat it as a strong hint rather than a guarantee. |
| [INFERENCE] | Our engineering judgement drawn from the facts. It is reasoned, but no source states it. |
| [UNCERTAIN] | We could not confirm it. Verify before you commit to it in a bid. |
| [OPEN] | A question only the requester or further testing can answer (collected in §13). |
0.1 Live probes performed (2026-10-16, ~01:35 UTC)
We ran all probes from one machine with curl and the Node.js 24 built-in WebSocket. We did not use API keys.
| # | Probe | Result |
|---|---|---|
| P1 | getVersion → https://solana-rpc.publicnode.com | HTTP 200, {"solana-core":"4.3.0"}. Served behind Cloudflare. No rate-limit headers in the response. |
| P2 | 40 parallel getSlot requests | All 40 returned HTTP 200, so no throttling at that burst size. |
| P3 | getSignaturesForAddress(JUP6Lkb…, limit 2) | Worked. Returned blockTime, slot, confirmationStatus, err. |
| P4 | getBlock(1) | Error -32001: "Block 1 cleaned up, does not exist on node. First available block: 457064937" (current slot was ~457456067). |
| P5 | getTransaction(…, jsonParsed, maxSupportedTransactionVersion:0) | Worked. meta contained preTokenBalances/postTokenBalances, preBalances/postBalances, fee, innerInstructions, logMessages. A pump.fun token (…pump mint) showed programId: TokenzQdBNbLqP5VEhdkAS6EPFLC1PHnBqCXEpPxuEb (Token-2022). |
| P6 | WebSocket wss://solana-rpc.publicnode.com: slotSubscribe, logsSubscribe("all"), logsSubscribe({mentions:[Jupiter v6]}), logsSubscribe({mentions:[pump.fun program]}) (confirmed and processed), programSubscribe(pump.fun) | All subscriptions were accepted and returned IDs. 15 s counts: slot = 68, logs "all" = 5, Jupiter mentions = 0, pump.fun mentions = 0, programSubscribe pump.fun = 13. |
| P7 | logsSubscribe with two addresses in mentions | No success response arrived in 10 s. The docs say this returns Invalid params. |
| P8 | GET https://api.dexscreener.com/tokens/v1/solana/So111…112 | Worked. Fields included pairAddress, baseToken, quoteToken, priceNative, priceUsd, txns{m5,h1,h6,h24}{buys,sells}, volume{…}, liquidity, marketCap, pairCreatedAt, priceChange. Header cache-control: public, max-age=30, cf-cache-status: HIT. |
The most important finding is P6. Mainnet Solana processes thousands of transactions per second, and Jupiter and pump.fun are among the busiest programs on it. Five "all" log notifications and zero program-mention notifications in 15 s means the free PublicNode WebSocket did not deliver a complete firehose to us. [INFERENCE] The cause could be sampling, filtering, per-IP fair-use limits, or a lagging node. We cannot tell which from outside. Design consequence: never treat the free WebSocket as a complete source of trades. Use it as a trigger and reconcile over HTTP (§2.4).
1. Executive summary
- [FACT] PublicNode advertises Solana at
https://solana-rpc.publicnode.comas a "free" and "privacy first" endpoint, with a WS RPC tab and optional "Archive data available" access (solana.publicnode.com, publicnode.com). Neither page publishes rate limits or an SLA. - [FACT] DexScreener publishes rate limits: 300 req/min for
/latest/dex/pairs,/tokens/v1,/token-pairs/v1,/latest/dex/search, and 60 req/min for profiles, boosts, orders, and metas./tokens/v1accepts up to 30 comma-separated addresses (DexScreener API reference; OpenAPI spec). - [FACT] DexScreener gives aggregate pair statistics: price, buy/sell counts, volume, and liquidity. It gives no per-wallet trade list, so wallet discovery and per-trade data must come from Solana RPC.
- [INFERENCE] The feasible free-tier design is wallet-centric polling plus a WebSocket trigger. It is not a whole-chain indexer. Monitoring 10 wallets on free services is realistic. 50 is feasible with careful batching. 100 is at the edge and needs either a paid RPC or degraded latency (§3).
- [INFERENCE] You can compute P&L precisely from on-chain balance deltas using integer arithmetic. "Profit" is only as accurate as (a) the history you can still fetch (P4 shows the free node prunes old blocks) and (b) the USD price source. Show both caveats in the UI.
2. Auto-discovery of wallets and real buy/sell transactions
2.1 What "real" means here
A buy or sell is a confirmed, successful Solana transaction (err == null) that, for a given owner wallet:
- decreases one asset and increases another. For example, SOL/WSOL/USDC goes down and memecoin X goes up (a buy), or the reverse (a sell);
- with the amounts taken from
meta.preTokenBalances/postTokenBalances(SPL/Token-2022 tokens) andmeta.preBalances/postBalances(lamports). [FACT] These fields are documented in getTransaction and seen in P5.
Do not infer trades from log text alone. Logs can be truncated, and program log formats change. [INFERENCE]
2.2 Discovery sources (all real, no synthetic data)
| Source | What it gives | Cost and limits |
|---|---|---|
DexScreener /token-profiles/latest/v1, /token-boosts/latest/v1, /token-boosts/top/v1 | Newly profiled or boosted Solana tokens (chainId, tokenAddress) | 60 req/min [FACT]. Boosts are paid promotion, so they show a token's marketing spend, not its quality. Label them as such in the UI. [INFERENCE] |
DexScreener /latest/dex/search?q= and /token-pairs/v1/solana/{token} | Pair addresses (pool accounts) for a token | 300 req/min [FACT] |
RPC getSignaturesForAddress(<pairAddress or token mint>) | Recent signatures that touched the pool. Each one is a candidate trade. | Paginated, limit ≤ 1000 per call (docs). Limited to the history the node retains (P4). |
RPC getTransaction on each signature | Fee payer plus balance deltas → the trader wallet and the trade side and size | One call per transaction. This is the main cost driver. |
WS logsSubscribe({mentions:[pool]}) | Push trigger when a pool is touched | [FACT] Exactly one address per subscription (logsSubscribe). P6/P7 suggest delivery is incomplete on the free endpoint. |
Wallet discovery algorithm [INFERENCE]:
- Pick candidate tokens from DexScreener (trending, newly profiled, or user-entered), filtered by
liquidity.usd,volume.h24, andpairCreatedAtthresholds. - For each token's top pair, page
getSignaturesForAddress(pair)across a bounded window, such as the last N = 200 signatures. - Fetch
getTransactionfor each signature and decode trades (§2.3). Aggregate per owner: realised P&L, number of trades, hold time, and first-buy timing compared withpairCreatedAt. - Score wallets, for example on realised P&L, win rate, and early entry. Exclude obvious non-humans: the pool's own vault, program-derived accounts, and known aggregator or router accounts. Also flag likely bots, such as many trades in the same slot or buy-and-sell in the same block.
- Add the top-scored wallets to the auto watchlist (§4) and record why each one was added, so a user can audit the reason.
2.3 Decoding a trade from a parsed transaction
owner = fee payer (accountKeys[0]) unless the user wallet is a different signer
for each mint m in pre/postTokenBalances where entry.owner == owner:
delta_m = BigInt(post.amount) - BigInt(pre.amount) // raw integer units
solDelta = postBalances[i] - preBalances[i] + (owner is fee payer ? fee : 0) // lamports, excl. fee
wsolDelta = delta for mint So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112
quoteDelta = solDelta + wsolDelta (or USDC/USDT delta if quote is a stablecoin)
if memecoin delta > 0 and quoteDelta < 0 -> BUY ; price = |quoteDelta| / delta
if memecoin delta < 0 and quoteDelta > 0 -> SELL ; price = quoteDelta / |delta|
Notes:
- [FACT]
uiTokenAmount.amountis a base-10 integer string.uiAmountis deprecated in favour ofuiAmountString(getTransaction). Always compute fromamountanddecimalswith BigInt or a decimal library. Never use JS floats. - [FACT] Omitting
maxSupportedTransactionVersionmakes versioned transactions error out. Always pass0(the docs now also list1).getTransactionrejectsprocessedcommitment (same page). - [OBSERVED] pump.fun mints use the Token-2022 program (P5). The decoder and any
getTokenAccountsByOwnercalls must query bothTokenkeg…andTokenzQd…program IDs. - Multi-hop routes (Jupiter) can touch several intermediate mints. Use net owner deltas, not per-instruction amounts. [INFERENCE]
- Transfers, airdrops, and LP add/remove change balances without being trades. Classify a row as a trade only when one side is a recognised quote asset and the opposite side is the token. Label everything else as "transfer/other". [INFERENCE]
2.4 Live pipeline (trigger and reconcile)
WS (logsSubscribe per watched wallet, commitment=confirmed)
│ signature hint
▼
Ingest queue (dedupe by signature) ◄── poller: getSignaturesForAddress(wallet, until=lastSeenSig) every T s
│
▼
getTransaction(confirmed, jsonParsed, v0) → decoder → trades table (unique signature+owner+mint)
│
▼
price enrichment (DexScreener /tokens/v1 batch ≤30) → P&L engine → pub/sub → UI
The poller guarantees completeness within the node's retention window. The WebSocket only lowers latency. Because P6 showed missed notifications, the poller is mandatory. [OBSERVED + INFERENCE]
3. Monitoring 10, 50 or 100 wallets
3.1 Request budget model [INFERENCE]
Let W be the number of wallets, T the poll interval in seconds, and k the average number of new transactions per wallet per minute.
- Polling cost: W × 60/T
getSignaturesForAddresscalls per minute. - Decode cost: W × k
getTransactioncalls per minute. - WebSocket: W
logsSubscribesubscriptions, because each subscription takes only one address.
| Tier | Poll interval T | Signature polls/min | Decodes/min at k = 2 | WS subscriptions | Free-tier verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 wallets | 10 s | 60 | 20 | 10 | Comfortable. 40-request bursts were unthrottled (P2). |
| 50 wallets | 20 s | 150 | 100 | 50 | Feasible. Needs a token-bucket limiter and backoff. |
| 100 wallets | 30 s | 200 | 200 | 100 | Edge case. Latency rises and throttling risk is unknown. Offer a "bring your own RPC URL" setting. |
[UNCERTAIN] PublicNode publishes no numeric limits, so the actual ceiling is unknown. Measure it during a soak test (§11) and make T adaptive: back off on HTTP 429/5xx or JSON-RPC errors and speed up when error-free.
3.2 Implementation
- Rotate wallets through a priority scheduler. Wallets with recent activity get polled more often (T/2). Dormant wallets get polled less (2T).
- Use the
untilandbeforecursors ofgetSignaturesForAddressso you never re-fetch known signatures. - Persist
last_seen_signatureper wallet so restarts resume without gaps (bounded by node retention). - Make the tier selector (10/50/100) a real setting that changes scheduler parameters. Show the effective refresh latency in the UI, so users know what they are getting.
4. Watchlist management
| Feature | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Auto-add | Discovery job (§2.2) inserts wallets with source='auto', reason (JSON: score, tokens, P&L), and added_at. Respects the tier cap. When full, it evicts the lowest-scored auto entry and never a manual one. |
| Manual add | Paste a base-58 address. Validate it (32-byte decode, PublicKey.isOnCurve not required because PDAs are valid owners). Optional label. Backfill history immediately within retention. |
| Remove / pin / mute | Pin protects an entry from auto-eviction. Mute stops alerts but keeps tracking. |
| Import / export | CSV/JSON of addresses and labels. Never include private data. |
| Audit trail | watchlist_events table (add, remove, pin, with actor = user or auto). |
Wallet addresses are public data. Labels a user attaches may still be sensitive, so keep them per-user. [INFERENCE]
5. Live transaction feed and P&L
5.1 Feed row fields
time (blockTime) · slot · signature (link to explorer) · wallet · side · token mint (CA) · token symbol · token amount · quote amount (SOL/USDC) · execution price (quote per token, derived on-chain) · USD value · DexScreener price at ingest time · realised P&L for this sell · position after trade · status (confirmed/finalized).
- Execution price comes from on-chain deltas (§2.3). It is exact to the transaction, apart from fees and slippage, which are already embedded in the deltas.
- USD value = quote amount × SOL/USD. This needs an external price. DexScreener's SOL pair
priceUsdis a string (spec) and is cached up to 30 s (P8). Store which price and when with every USD figure. [FACT + INFERENCE] - Volume per token in the feed header comes from DexScreener
volume.{m5,h1,h6,h24}. It covers all traders, not only watched wallets. Label it that way.
5.2 P&L method [INFERENCE — standard accounting]
- Track positions per (wallet, mint) in raw integer units, with cost basis in lamports (or USDC micro-units). Choose average-cost (simple and common) or FIFO (needed for tax-style lots) and display the method.
- Realised P&L on a sell = proceeds − (avg_cost × qty_sold). Fees count as part of cost and proceeds because they are already in the SOL deltas. Show them separately for transparency.
- Unrealised P&L = qty_held × current price − remaining cost basis. Current price comes from DexScreener
priceNative/priceUsd. - Precision: use BigInt for raw amounts and
decimal.js(or PostgreSQLNUMERIC) for ratios. Never store money infloat8or JSnumber. - Incomplete history: if the first observed event for a (wallet, mint) is a sell, or a balance exists without a fetched buy, mark cost basis unknown and show "P&L n/a (history before retention window)" instead of guessing. P4 shows why: the free node had pruned blocks older than roughly 391k slots, about 2 days at ~0.4 s per slot [OBSERVED + INFERENCE].
6. Leaderboards and whale alerts
| Board | Definition | Data caveat |
|---|---|---|
| Top profit | Sum of realised P&L (SOL and USD) per wallet over 24 h, 7 d, or all-tracked windows. Unrealised P&L in a separate column. | Only covers watched or discovered wallets and their retained history. Not "the whole market". |
| Most-held tokens | Count of watched wallets currently holding mint X (from position table, optionally verified with getTokenAccountsByOwner for both token programs), plus total USD value. | Positions acquired before tracking began are found only by the verification call. |
| Whale accumulation alert | A trigger fires when any of these holds: (a) one wallet's net buys of X over a rolling 15 min exceed $N or Y % of pool liquidity.usd; (b) ≥ M watched wallets buy X within a window (cluster); (c) a single buy exceeds the threshold. | Thresholds are user-configurable [OPEN]. Liquidity comes from DexScreener and may be ~30 s stale. |
Deduplicate alerts per (rule, wallet, mint, window) and record the triggering signatures, so every alert links to on-chain proof.
7. UI design guidelines (dark cyberpunk, responsive, live)
- Palette: near-black background (
#0a0a12), panel#12121f, neon accents: cyan#00f0ff(info/buy), magenta#ff2bd6(highlights), lime#39ff14(profit), red#ff3b5c(loss/sell). Never rely on colour alone. Pair it with ▲/▼ icons and the BUY/SELL text, and check WCAG AA contrast (4.5:1 for body text). - Typography: monospace for addresses and numbers (JetBrains Mono / IBM Plex Mono) with tabular figures. Show addresses shortened (
AxWz…fcvH) with copy and explorer buttons. - Layout: CSS grid with 3 columns on desktop (watchlist | live feed | leaderboards/alerts), 2 on tablet, and a single column with bottom tabs on mobile. Virtualise the feed list (e.g. TanStack Virtual) to keep 60 fps with thousands of rows.
- Live notifications: toast stack plus an optional browser Notification API (opt-in) plus an optional sound. Show a persistent connection status pill (Live / Reconnecting / Polling-only / Degraded), and the age of the last price update, so users can see how stale the data is.
- Motion: brief glow on new rows. Respect
prefers-reduced-motion. - Honesty in UI: show "n/a" for unknown values, a "data source and limitations" panel, and never use placeholder or demo rows in production builds.
8. Project audit, removing simulation code, and working controls
For an existing codebase, or as acceptance gates for a new one:
- Inventory: list every button, toggle, and route. Map each one to a handler and a backend endpoint. Any control without a working path is a defect.
- Find simulated data: grep for
Math.random,faker,mock,dummy,setInterval(...push(and hard-coded addresses or prices in production code paths. Move fixtures totest/fixturesonly. Add a CI check that fails if mock modules are imported fromsrc/. - Replace each simulation with the real pipeline (§2.4). Where real data is unavailable, render an explicit empty or error state, never invented values.
- End-to-end test every control (Playwright): add/remove wallet, tier switch, pin/mute, leaderboard window switch, alert threshold edit, export, and reconnect banner. Each test asserts both the UI change and the backend side effect.
- Data-correctness audit: for a sample of decoded trades, compare amounts and side with a block explorer (Solscan/Solana Explorer) and record the result in an audit log.
- Dependency and config audit: run
npm audit/pnpm audit, pin versions, and confirm no secrets are in the client bundle.
9. Free services, security, reconnects and precision
9.1 Recommended stack [INFERENCE]
| Layer | Choice | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Backend | Node.js (TypeScript) with @solana/kit (or @solana/web3.js v1), Fastify, ws | First-class Solana SDKs. One language end to end. |
| Workers | Same codebase. Separate processes for poller, decoder, pricer, and alerting. BullMQ queues on Redis. | Isolates rate-limited I/O and supports retries. |
| Database | PostgreSQL (Supabase free tier or self-hosted). Optional TimescaleDB extension for trade hypertables. | NUMERIC precision, unique constraints for idempotency, window functions for leaderboards. |
| Cache / pub-sub | Redis (Upstash free tier or self-hosted) | Price cache (TTL ≥ 30 s to match DexScreener max-age), fan-out to clients. |
| Frontend | React/Next.js with Tailwind, server-sent events or WebSocket from your backend | Browsers never connect to RPC directly: this centralises rate limiting and avoids leaking the user's IP to third parties. |
Free-tier quotas for Supabase, Upstash, and similar hosts change often and were not verified for this report [UNCERTAIN]. Check them at bid time.
9.2 Automatic reconnects (WebSocket) [INFERENCE]
- Use exponential backoff with full jitter (base 1 s, cap 30 s). Reset after 60 s of stable connection.
- Send a heartbeat ping every 20–30 s. Treat no
slotNotification(or no pong) within 2× the interval as a dead socket and reconnect. - On reconnect, re-subscribe everything (subscription IDs are per connection) and run an immediate gap backfill with
getSignaturesForAddress(wallet, until=lastSeenSig)for every wallet. - Make ingestion idempotent with a
UNIQUE(signature, owner, mint)constraint, so replays never double-count P&L. - After N failed reconnects, switch to polling-only mode and show that in the status pill.
9.3 Precision rules
Use integer raw amounts (amount string → BigInt), store as NUMERIC(78,0), keep decimals per mint, compute prices with decimal.js at ≥ 30 significant digits, and round only for display. Count only confirmed (or finalized) transactions with err == null. Mark rows confirmed → finalized when they finalise. [FACT for fields and commitment; INFERENCE for the policy]
10. Limitations of free Solana RPC (PublicNode) — honest assessment
| # | Limitation | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| L1 | No published rate limits or SLA. Throughput can change without notice. | [FACT] None stated on solana.publicnode.com or publicnode.com. |
| L2 | Limited history. Old blocks are pruned. In our probe the oldest available block was ~391k slots behind the tip. "Archive" access is a separate request. | [OBSERVED] P4. [FACT] "Archive data available / Get Archive Access" on the PublicNode page. Terms unknown [UNCERTAIN]. |
| L3 | WebSocket streams appeared heavily incomplete: 5 logs(all) and 0 Jupiter or pump.fun mention notifications in 15 s. | [OBSERVED] P6. Single sample; the cause is unknown. |
| L4 | One address per logsSubscribe, so N wallets need N subscriptions. The per-connection subscription cap is unpublished. | [FACT] logsSubscribe docs. Cap [UNCERTAIN]. |
| L5 | Shared, anonymous infrastructure behind Cloudflare. Latency and availability depend on other users. | [OBSERVED] server: cloudflare header (P1). |
| L6 | No enhanced APIs: no parsed-swap or wallet-history endpoints such as those some paid providers offer. All decoding is your code. | [INFERENCE] Only standard JSON-RPC was advertised. Yellowstone gRPC "requires a free API token" [FACT], but we did not test it. |
| L7 | getProgramAccounts and full-chain scans are impractical on any shared free endpoint. Do not design around them. | [INFERENCE] |
| L8 | DexScreener is aggregate-only, cached ~30 s, and rate-limited (60/300 per minute). Boosts are paid promotion. | [FACT] spec plus P8 header. |
Mitigations: a configurable RPC URL list with failover (keep PublicNode as default, and let the owner add a paid key), polling as the source of truth, visible staleness indicators, and an optional PublicNode Yellowstone gRPC path once a free token is obtained [OPEN].
11. Testing methods
| Level | What | How |
|---|---|---|
| Unit | Trade decoder, P&L engine, BigInt and decimal maths | Golden fixtures = real getTransaction JSON saved from mainnet (buy, sell, multi-hop, Token-2022, failed tx, transfer). Assert side, amounts, and price exactly. Property tests (fast-check): buy-then-sell of the same quantity at the same price gives P&L = −fees. |
| Contract | DexScreener and RPC response shapes | Validate with zod schemas from the published OpenAPI spec. Fail loudly when a schema drifts. |
| Integration | Poller, queue, DB idempotency | Replay the same signatures twice and assert there are no duplicate rows and no P&L drift. Inject 429/5xx and dropped sockets with a fault proxy (toxiproxy) and assert backoff and backfill. |
| E2E | Every UI control (§8) | Playwright against a staging stack pointed at mainnet with a small real watchlist. Snapshot tests for mobile, tablet, and desktop. |
| Soak | Free-tier ceilings | Run tiers 10, 50, and 100 for 24 h. Record error rate, p95 ingest latency (blockTime → UI), and missed transactions (poller found it but WS did not). Publish these numbers in the bid. |
| Accuracy audit | Spot checks | Compare 50 random trades per week with an explorer. Target 100 % match on amounts and side. |
12. Security best practices
- Read-only by design. The dashboard never needs private keys or signing. Refuse any "connect wallet to trade" scope creep unless it is separately specified.
- Backend proxy for all third-party calls, with a server-side rate limiter. Expose no RPC keys to the browser. Keep secrets in environment variables or a secret manager, never in the repo.
- Input validation: base-58 address decode (32 bytes) for every user-entered address, and zod validation on every API body. Use parameterised SQL only.
- Output safety: token names and symbols are attacker-controlled (anyone can mint a token named
<script>). Escape all output, use a strict CSP, and avoiddangerouslySetInnerHTML. Treat DexScreenerinfo.websites/socialslinks as untrusted: addrel="noopener noreferrer"and show a warning on outbound links. - Phishing and spam tokens: flag tokens with lookalike symbols, zero liquidity, or freeze or mint authority still set (check via
getAccountInfoon the mint) [INFERENCE]. - AuthN/Z for multi-user deployments: per-user watchlists, session cookies (
HttpOnly,Secure,SameSite), rate limits per user on your own API, and audit logs. - Supply chain: use a lockfile,
npm auditin CI, Dependabot or Renovate, and pin@solana/*packages. The@solana/web3.js1.95.6–1.95.7 compromise in Dec 2024 is a precedent [FACT per that advisory; verify current status]. - Not financial advice: show this disclaimer. Leaderboards describe past on-chain behaviour only.
13. Open questions for the requester
- [OPEN] Single-user or multi-user deployment (affects auth and DB design)?
- [OPEN] Is a paid RPC fallback acceptable if the 100-wallet tier misses latency targets? What latency counts as "real-time" (e.g. < 5 s, < 30 s)?
- [OPEN] Which P&L method (average-cost or FIFO), and which quote assets (SOL only, or also USDC/USDT)?
- [OPEN] Whale-alert thresholds (USD amount, % of liquidity, cluster size) and notification channels (in-app only, or Telegram/Discord/email)?
- [OPEN] May the team request a PublicNode Yellowstone gRPC token or archive access, and accept those terms?
- [OPEN] Hosting target and budget (the "free" tiers of database and cache hosts have quotas).
- [OPEN] Does an existing codebase exist for the §8 audit, or is this greenfield?

I've written the report to
artifacts/report.mdand left it untracked for the upload. A shortREADME.mdin the repo root states the question and the report's limits. I couldn't commit the README because this machine has no git author identity set. I didn't set one, so the README is staged but not committed.Sources and live checks:
- Docs I read: PublicNode's Solana pages, the DexScreener API reference and its OpenAPI spec, and the Solana RPC docs for
getTransactionandlogsSubscribe. - Live probes: I sent short requests to the PublicNode RPC and WebSocket and to the DexScreener API on 2026-10-16, with no API keys.
What the checks showed:
- Rate limits: PublicNode publishes no rate limits or service guarantee, and 40 parallel requests all succeeded. DexScreener's limits are 300 requests/min for the pair and token endpoints and 60/min for the rest.
/tokens/v1takes up to 30 addresses per call, and its responses are cached for 30 seconds. - History: the free RPC node had deleted old blocks. The oldest one available was about 391k slots behind the latest, roughly two days.
- WebSocket: subscriptions were accepted, but in 15 seconds the "all transactions" stream delivered only 5 messages, and the streams for Jupiter and pump.fun delivered none. Mainnet runs thousands of transactions per second, so the free WebSocket isn't a complete feed. The report therefore uses it only to speed things up and treats regular HTTP polling as the source of truth. This comes from one short sample, and the cause is unknown.
- Tokens: pump.fun tokens use Solana's newer token program (Token-2022), so the trade decoder has to handle both token programs.
- DexScreener data: it gives only totals per trading pair. It has no per-wallet trades, so finding wallets and decoding their trades has to be done from Solana RPC.
The report covers all 10 requested sections. Every claim is tagged as fact, observed, inference, uncertain or open, and there's a source list and seven open questions for the requester.
Not verified:
- Two citations came from memory rather than a fresh fetch: the 1,000-result limit on
getSignaturesForAddressand the December 2024@solana/web3.jssecurity advisory. Both are flagged in the report to re-check. - Free-tier quotas for the database and cache hosts weren't checked.
- No application code was built, no paid services were tested, and nobody independently reviewed the research.
