Quick Start Guide

Things that you need to create a sniping instance.

• Contract Address *required

• Minting function name *required

• Amount of Gas you are willing to spend

• Amount of Priority you are willing to give to the transaction

• The price of each NFT

For the rest of this guide we will be using Quirklings as an example. Etherscan

Contract Address

This is the only thing that is required before you start sniping everything else can be gotten through the contract or etherscan.

Now that you have the contract address go to etherscan and search for it.

What are the important things.

1. Make sure that the Tracker is correct

2. Make sure that the Contract has a green Check Mark

Getting the values from the contract.

Click on "Read Contract". This is where you can find Total Supply Minted, Max Mints Per Transaction, Price Per Mint, Total Supply, and much more.

Getting the price.

The only thing that we are interested in is the Price. When you click on any of these dropdown menus it will give you the result in wei, if it is a number. You can click on that number as it will give you the conversion in all units. Most of the time we are looking only for gwei or ether.

From this page we are only interested in how much the price in eth is going to be. In this case its 0.2 per nft.

Getting the max mints per transaction

Getting the max mints per transaction can be a bit tricky. Usually we are looking for:

• maxMintPerTxn

• maxPublicMintPerTxn

What happens if we don't find the information that we want?

All the information can be found with in the source code of the contract. Beware some contracts allows the owner to change some aspects from the contract after it has been created.

We have an Irregular name "capPublic". How do we know that this is the correct variable.

Getting the Function Name

Lets go to the "Write Contract" Tab

There is no consistent way to find the minting function name. Usually the minting function name could be.

• mint

• publicMint

• freeMint

• allowlistMint

• whitlistmint

In our case, the minting function is called mint.

How do we know that the information that we have is correct ?

If you go to the source code and look for the minting function.

We can see the function name and the limiting amount variable(capPublic). We know that it has flipstate(salePublic), and we know that this function is accepting a number as a parameter.

Going back to Timith

From the etherscan we have the following information:

• Contract Address

• Minting function name

• Price per mint

• Max mints for each transaction
