Anti-sniper
Techniques and tooling that prevent external snipers from front-running a token launch.
Anti-sniper defenses combine bundled execution (the launch's buys are atomic with create), private-mempool submission, and configurable wallet/quantity spreads so external bots can't reliably calculate the launch parameters in advance. Vortex provides anti-sniper protections by default on all bundled launches across supported DEXes.
