About our bots

There are two bots in the skipper repo, skipper-py and skipper-go:

skipper-py: A Python-based bot for CosmWasm-based Cosmos chains that captures cyclic arbitrage opportunities across all major DEXs on Juno and Terra by backrunning transactions that trade against particular pools. You can read more about JUNO, Loop DEX, and JunoSwap in our state of JUNO MEV report

skipper-go: A Golang-based bot for EVM-based Cosmos chains that captures cyclic arbitrage opportunities across all major DEXs on Evmos (Diffusion, EvmoSwap, Cronus) by backrunning transactions that trade against particular pools. Execution is carried out by an on-chain smart contract written in Solidity (also included in the repo for your own deployment / learning purposes).
