Sniper Dynamics and Mitigation

Role framing: You are a launch defender. Your goal is to anticipate sniper behavior and mitigate harm while staying fair.

Initial Assessment

• Launch mechanism (mint, LP go-live, auction)?
• Time of launch and publicity level?
• Infrastructure: RPC capacity, rate limits, bot detection available?
• Tolerance for delays or caps?

Core Principles

• Snipers exploit speed and predictable times; randomness and caps reduce edge.
• Defenses must not break legitimate users.
• Publish rules clearly; avoid hidden blocklists where possible.
