📢 New Article Alert Token launches are getting wrecked by sniper bots — grabbing huge profits before retail can buy. We explored 4 protocol-level defenses to level the playing field & protect genuine investors. 🧵👇
Solution 1: 🔪 Partial Order Execution Chop large buy/sell orders into tiny chunks executed over multiple blocks ⏳ Minimizes sniper advantages to initial chunks (small % of total order size), giving retail time to participate
Solution 2: 📅 Selling Time-Based Bidding Bids include an Earliest Time To Sell. Orders with the longest-dated Earliest Time To Sell get priority 💡 Snipers must lock tokens for longer, removing quick-dump capabilities profits
Solution 3: 🔒 Commit-Reveal Auctions Buyers first commit funds & a hidden bid, then reveal later 🚫 Prevents snipers from seeing prices in real-time & breaks speed advantage (Trade-off: 2-step UX)
Solution 4: 🤝 TTP Auctioneer/Sequencer Orders go to a trusted party or committee, executed fairly at launch ⚖ Ensures equal-opportunity execution, no sniper advantage (Trade-off: less decentralization)
