Anti-bot mechanisms on Arbitrum: How to stop snipe on my Token
When you’re about to launch your token on Arbitrum, one of the first questions is: how many bots will snipe my token?
If you look at the chart for almost any token or memecoin, you’ll often see a huge initial spike that never comes back. That happens because of coordinated bot activity: once they hit their profit target, they fire off the sell order.

Bot activity is unpredictable. The best we can do is reduce unwanted appearances, whether they annoy your community or simply do not fit the project.
Next, I’ll walk you through how bots work, which anti-bot mechanisms are available, and how to fix it in under a minute with the Smithii tool, no coding required.
Anti-Bot Mechanisms
Here are the most common ways to keep bots out of your token trading on Arbitrum. There are two main types of bot buy restrictions:
- Buy Limits per Address: Set a maximum number of tokens that a single address can buy within a specific period.
- Cooldown Periods: Set a minimum waiting time between token purchases from the same address.
Anti-Bot Setup on Arbitrum
There are only a few no-code options on the market for protecting a token from bots. The Arbitrum anti-bot from Smithii only requires you to enter a few parameters.

Here are the steps to configure anti-bot mechanisms with Smithii on Arbitrum:
- Select the token you created
- Time between transactions: Set the delay between transactions to reduce bot activity.
- Block to disable anti-bots: Set the block where the anti-bot mechanism will be disabled.
