Solana APIs & Tech Stack for Pump.fun Bots

Solana pump.fun bots typically use Solana RPC endpoints from providers like Helius, QuickNode, or Alchemy to interact with the blockchain, along with the pump.fun API for direct protocol interactions and Jupiter API for DEX aggregation.

The common tech stack includes TypeScript/JavaScript or Python with libraries like @solana/web3.js or solana-py for blockchain interaction, @project-serum/anchor for smart contract communication, and telegram bot libraries like node-telegram-bot-api.

Developers often use Node.js with Express for webhooks, Redis for message queuing, PostgreSQL or MongoDB for data storage, and integrate price data APIs from Birdeye or DexScreener.

These bots monitor mempool transactions, track new token launches on pump.fun, and execute automated trading strategies while providing real-time updates through Telegram interfaces.

[XTUFE]

Many pump.fun or Telegram bots on Solana use public RPCs (like Helius, Triton, or Block RPC) and often rely on WebSockets for real-time mempool tracking. The tech stack usually includes TypeScript or Python, using libraries like solana-web3.js, and tools like QuickNode or Shyft for faster indexing or token data.
