Base MEV and Arbitrage Bot Architecture in 2026
A realistic Base arbitrage architecture covering pending data, simulation, private routing and realized edge.
A realistic Base arbitrage architecture covering pending data, simulation, private routing and realized edge.
Opportunity sources
Monitor pool-state changes, large swaps and price divergence across Base venues. Long-tail pools may differ from saturated majors.
Simulation
Simulate exact calldata against recent state and include L2 execution plus L1 data costs.
Submission
Use controlled public or private routes, nonce coordination and replacement policies. Protect against duplicate execution.
Reality check
Measure reverted gas, competition, inventory and rebalancing. Displayed gross spread is not realized profit.
TierZero develops EVM MEV bots and arbitrage systems.
