swarm0x

Every command, in plain words.

You type a word, press enter, and read the answer. This page covers all 29 commands. You do not have to memorise any of it. Start typing in the console and it suggests the rest.

The basics

The console is one bar at the bottom of the screen. That is the whole interface.

  1. Open app.swarm0x.sh and start typing. Suggestions show up above the bar. Press tab or tap one to pick it.
  2. You can type what you want instead of a command name. Type alert and it offers the commands that send alerts.
  3. Most commands work straight away. The ones marked Needs a mite want you to sign in first. Type start. It is free and it takes one signature.
  4. Click any address in a result and it drops into the bar, ready to use with the next command.
  5. Live feeds keep running until you press Stop.
The console with suggestions showing above the command bar
Type two letters and the console suggests the rest.
The result of the check command, with the answer in large type
The answer comes first, in large type. The detail sits under it.

Start here

Three commands get you going.

start [appetite]

No sign in neededAlso answers to hatch

Makes your mite. That is your account here. It is free, you get one per wallet, and it is yours for good. Your wallet asks you to sign one line of text. Nothing is sent, spent or approved.

Type
You get
hatched. MITE-7BEF, #4 of the first thousand.
your mite is a weevil. it eats rug patterns, drainers, honeypot code.
  • If your browser has more than one wallet, the console lists them and you pick one. It never grabs a wallet on its own.
  • No wallet in this browser? Open app.swarm0x.sh inside your wallet's own browser.
  • The appetite decides what your mite looks for first. Leave it out and one is picked for you. You can change it later with appetite.

watch [stocks]

No sign in neededAlso answers to forage

A live feed of the chain. You see new tokens, buys and sells of 0.1 ETH and up, tokens graduating, big transfers, and deployers moving their own supply.

Type
You get
09:39:57  launch    robottery    0x59b4…cd89  by 0x1f65…bd52 tax 3.0%
09:39:57  buy       robottery    0.1250 eth $330  0xe33e…2948 curve 3%
09:40:03  sell      ants         0.3697 eth $976  0x7784…169e curve 26%
  • Press Stop, or type stop, to end it.
  • Without a mite it runs for 90 seconds. With one it runs until you stop it.
  • watch stocks shows only Robinhood stock tokens. Add an appetite, like watch weevil, to see only what that appetite looks for.
  • Amber rows are alerts. Rust coloured rows are threats, like a deployer selling.

help [topic]

No sign in needed

Shows the six commands most people need. Add a topic or a command name for more.

Type
  • Topics are buy, hold, alerts and nest.
  • You rarely need it. Start typing in the console and it suggests commands as you go. You can even type what you want, like alert, and it finds the command that does it.

Before you buy

Run these on a token before you put money in.

check <token>

No sign in neededAlso answers to taste

The one to run before you buy. It pretends to buy 0.1 ETH of the token and sell it straight back, on the real chain, without spending anything. Then it tells you if both trades go through and what they would cost you.

Type
You get
nstr on the curve.
buys and sells go through.
buy tax        1.0% pons + 2.5% creator = 3.5%
sell tax       3.5% off the output
0.1 eth buys   5,996,289 nstr
price impact   1.8% on 0.1 eth
round trip     lose 0.0068 eth (6.9%)
curve          83% full, 3.47 of 4.2 eth real
  • The big first line is the answer. If it says cannot be sold. in rust, walk away.
  • Round trip is what you would lose buying and selling right away. It is the fees plus the price you move.
  • It works on tokens launched on Pons. For anything else it tells you so instead of guessing.

scan <token>

No sign in neededAlso answers to dissect

Everything the nest knows about a token on one screen. Where it is in its life, the price, the taxes, who launched it and how that wallet's earlier tokens ended.

Type
You get
rnode  Rentnode
phase           on the curve, 69% full
price           0.000000012 eth, mcap 12.4065 eth ($32,752)
creator tax     3.0% (+ 1.0% pons on every trade)
liquidity       2.8854 eth real on the curve, graduates at 4.2
deployer        0x2fce…8290
deployer: first launch the nest has seen from this wallet.
  • Click the deployer's address, then type history in front of it to dig into that wallet.
  • A creator tax near 10% is the most Pons allows. Treat it as a warning.

soon

No sign in neededAlso answers to pupa

Tokens closest to graduating from the Pons curve to a real trading pool, fullest first.

Type
You get
token       fill   real eth   buys 10m   deployer   age
nstr         83%      3.471        0/0   #1         ?
rhd          79%      3.321        9/6   #1         ?
wildebeest   59%      2.482      87/14   #30        72m
  • Fill is how much real ETH the curve has raised out of the 4.2 it needs.
  • Buys 10m is buys and distinct wallets in the last ten minutes. 87/14 means 87 buys from 14 wallets.
  • Deployer #30 means this is that wallet's thirtieth launch. Serial launchers are worth a second look.
  • Click any address in the table to reuse it, for example after typing check.

history <wallet>

No sign in neededAlso answers to lineage

Where a wallet's money came from and what it launched before. Good for judging a deployer before the curve fills.

Type
You get
deployed 1 tokens: 0 graduated, 0 drained, 0 dead.
token   state   age   address
rnode   curve   ?     0x954f…f8b4
coverage: the nest has watched since block 66884588.
  • The nest only reports what it has seen. If a wallet is older than the nest, it says so instead of making things up.
  • As your mite grows it follows the money further back.

bundle <token>

Needs a miteWill need $SWARM after launchAlso answers to clutch

Shows who bought in the launch block and the 30 blocks after it, grouped by who paid for those wallets. One funder behind many wallets is a bundle, and it means fewer real hands than it looks.

Type
  • You get each funder, how many wallets it paid for, and the share of supply they hold together.

While you hold

Keep an eye on what you own and the wallets that matter.

bag

Needs a miteAlso answers to gut

What your wallet holds, what you paid, and whether you are up or down. It also warns you when something changed since you bought, like the deployer selling or liquidity moving.

Type
You get
nothing in your bag that the nest has seen you buy.
  • Balances come straight from the chain. Your cost comes from trades the nest saw, so buys from before it was watching are not counted.

follow <wallet> [as name]

Needs a miteAlso answers to trail

Follow any wallet and hear when it moves. Give it a name so you read whale3 bought instead of a string of hex.

Type
You get
following deployer1. 0x2fce…8290

  • To be told while you are away, add a rule and a notify channel. See below.

linked <wallet>

Needs a miteWill need $SWARM after launchAlso answers to colony

Finds wallets that move together with this one. They share a funder, or they bought the same tokens within 5 blocks of it three times or more.

Type
  • Useful for seeing how many people are really behind a token.

signals

No sign in neededAlso answers to twitch

What looked odd on the chain in the last hour. Deployers selling, wallets quietly piling in, taxes set near the cap, sudden volume.

Type
You get
11:03:04  weevil  lizard: creator tax 10.0% at launch. near the 10% cap.

Type

stop

Ends a live feed. The Stop button and Ctrl C do the same.

Type

clear

No sign in needed

Clears the screen. Ctrl L does the same.

Type

Nothing matches that. Try a shorter word.

Writing a rule

A rule is one short line. Say who you care about, what they do, and if you like, how big it has to be.

PartWhat you can write
whofollow for any wallet you follow, any for anyone, a wallet address, deployer: and a token address, or creator: and a token address
does whatbuying, selling, launching, graduating, moving, draining
how bigover 1 eth, over 5000 usd or over 10%. Leave it out to catch everything.
which tokenon and a token address. Leave it out for any token.
A few that are useful
  • Run rule test first. A rule like any launching fires hundreds of times a day, and you will want to narrow it.
  • Rules only reach you while you are away if you have set up notify.

Reading a result

the big line
Some commands open with the answer in large type, like buys and sells go through. Read that first.
amber
Worth a look. An alert, a big transfer, a token close to graduating.
rust
A threat. A deployer selling, liquidity leaving, a token that cannot be sold.
the thin bar
A share of something. On a token it shows how full the curve is.
0x7eD5…EC7e
A shortened address. Hover to see all of it. Click to drop it into the bar.
the moving line
The strip above the bar is the chain's pulse. Each bar is a slice of time. Taller means more ETH traded in it.

Limits and stages

Your mite has a stage, from 1 to 5. It moves up when your flags turn out right and slips back if you leave it alone for two weeks. A higher stage gives you more room.

StageWallets you can followRulesFlags a day

2645
31288
4251612
5503220

Everything is open today because $SWARM has not launched. After launch, the commands marked in amber will need you to hold some. Hatching a mite and the safety commands, like check, scan and history, stay free. The token page has the detail.

Words you will see

The console still uses a few of its own words in its answers. Here is what they mean.

mite
Your account. One per wallet.
nest
The shared pool of everything all the mites have found.
appetite
What your mite looks for first. Borer, tick, weevil or locust.
instar
Your mite's stage, 1 to 5. The last one is called imago and can only be earned.
pheromone
A flag. Your call that a token will run, drain or die.
twitch
A signal. Something on the chain that did not fit the usual pattern.
brood
A season. Stages reset each season and your marks stay.
curve
How a new Pons token is sold at first. The price rises as people buy.
graduate
When a curve has raised 4.2 ETH the token moves to a normal trading pool with locked liquidity.
deployer
The wallet that launched a token.
creator tax
A cut of every trade that goes to the token's creator. Pons caps it at 10%.

There are more commands than this page lists. The first wallet to find one gets its name in the field notes.
