How I Became an MEV Hunter: My Bot, My Contract, My Rules, and How I Built an Infernal Drainer MEV with a 35% Daily Profit

First Pain: "Lost 0.1 ETH on the First Run"

My first bot happily bought a token at the worst possible rate. While I was figuring out what went wrong, the price tanked, leaving me with a "memorable" 0.1 ETH loss.

Friendship with Google and GitHub

So many sleepless nights spent searching for answers: why won’t the contract deploy, why isn’t the wallet connecting, why doesn’t the bot see trades? Google became my best friend.

First Micro-Victory

After a week of testing, the bot finally brought in +0.003 ETH. The joy was as if I’d won a million! But most importantly—I realized it was all possible.

Bot Sleeps—Market Doesn’t Wait

One night, the bot froze and missed the best trade of the week. Since then, I learned that even automation requires oversight!

From Stocks to Crypto: Evolution of Thinking

It all started with investing in traditional stocks—long evenings reading financial reports and waiting for dividends. I thought that was "passive income." But years showed me: real growth lies not in stocks but in quickly adapting to new trends.

First Steps in DeFi

I tried farming tokens on Uniswap and participated in IDOs—there were profits, but volatility ate them up. I learned to set limits, understood stablecoins, and realized the importance of quickly withdrawing profits.

First MEV Experiments

Real passive income started when I figured out arbitrage and MEV. At first, it was pennies—0.01 ETH per week. But with experience, automation, and my own contract, I reached a stable 0.5 ETH per day.

Passive Income: Is 0.5 ETH a Day Real?

Yes, but only after hundreds of failures, sleepless nights, and constant learning. My bot now runs 24/7, monitors pools, seizes opportunities, and withdraws profits. The key—don’t get greedy, manage risks, and continuously optimize code and strategy.

Why Am I Sharing This?

• Real Experience: I want to show the journey—from stock investments to first steps in DeFi and creating an MEV bot with true passive income. Let others learn from my mistakes and successes.
• No Fakes or Myths: There’s a lot of hype and scams around MEV and DeFi. I share what it’s like from the inside, what works, and what doesn’t.
• Security: My goal is to teach people not to trust "miracle bots" but to do everything themselves, consciously and safely.
• For Myself and the Community: This is a diary to remember my journey and a platform for like-minded people.

Infernal Drainer MEV: Short and Sweet

The Infernal Drainer is not just a bot but an entire system that tracks large trading operations capable of shifting a token’s price and yielding big profits. Such a bot spots potentially lucrative trades (e.g., massive buys or sells in a pool) and jumps into the block to execute its trade before or right after a major trader.

How does it work?
The Infernal Drainer monitors the mempool (the queue of unconfirmed transactions), calculates where it can profit from price differences, and places its transactions to outpace others, sometimes paying miners higher fees for priority.

Why is it needed?
MEV bots help earn from others’ activity, catching big market movements and "draining" liquidity for their own profit. It’s cutting-edge DeFi technology where speed and precise calculations are everything.

Conclusion:
On average, about 10–15 transactions per hour (roughly). With a balance of 1 ETH, we take an average of $30 per hour, multiply by 24 hours, and get an approximate profit of $720 per day. But it depends on many factors: a bull market, gas fees, token volatility, and so on.
