Moonshot

Moonshot is a Solana token launchpad that uses the @moonit/sdk for token creation. The launch flow follows a three-step process: prepare the mint transaction, sign it with your wallet, and submit it. Token data is queried via Dexscreener.

Setup

Initialize dex-skills for Moonshot

import { createSkills, getSkill } from "dex-skills";

const skills = createSkills({
  wallets: {
    solana: {
      privateKey: "your-base58-private-key",
      rpcUrl: "https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com",
    },
  },
});

const moonshot = getSkill(skills, "moonshot");

Launch a Token

Internally, dex-skills handles the full Moonshot launch flow: calling prepareMintTx to construct the transaction, signing it with your private key, and submitting it via submitMintTx.

Launch Example

const result = await moonshot.launch({
  name: "Moon Token",
  symbol: "MOON",
  description: "A token launched on Moonshot.",
  imageUrl: "https://example.com/token-logo.png",
  bannerUrl: "https://example.com/token-banner.png",
  initialBuyAmount: "0.1",
  links: {
    twitter: "https://x.com/moontoken",
    telegram: "https://t.me/moontoken",
    website: "https://moontoken.xyz",
  },
});

console.log("Token address:", result.tokenAddress);
console.log("Transaction:", result.txHash);

Launch Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
name *	string	Display name of the token.
symbol *	string	Token ticker symbol.
description	string	Description of the token.
imageUrl	string	URL to the token icon image (max 2MB). Converted to base64 internally.
bannerUrl	string	URL to the token banner image (max 5MB). Moonshot-specific. Converted to base64 internally.
initialBuyAmount	string	Amount of SOL to spend on an initial buy immediately after launch.
links	object	Social links object with optional keys: twitter, telegram, website.

Query Token Info

Token information is fetched from Dexscreener, providing real-time market data including price, volume, and liquidity metrics.

Get Token Info

const token = await moonshot.getTokenInfo("TokenMintAddress...");

console.log("Name:", token.name);
console.log("Symbol:", token.symbol);
console.log("Price (USD):", token.priceUsd);
console.log("Liquidity:", token.liquidityUsd);

List Tokens

const tokens = await moonshot.listTokens({
  limit: 20,
  sortBy: "createdAt",
  sortOrder: "desc",
});

for (const token of tokens) {
  console.log(token.symbol, token.tokenAddress, token.priceUsd);
}

Buy Tokens

Purchase tokens on Moonshot by specifying the token address, SOL amount, and optional slippage.

Buy Example

const result = await moonshot.buy({
  tokenAddress: "TokenMintAddress...",
  amount: "0.1",
  slippage: 10,
});

console.log("Tx Hash:", result.txHash);
console.log("Tokens received:", result.tokenAmount);

Sell Tokens

Sell tokens on Moonshot by specifying the token address and amount of tokens to sell.

Sell Example

const result = await moonshot.sell({
  tokenAddress: "TokenMintAddress...",
  amount: "1000000",
  slippage: 10,
});

console.log("Tx Hash:", result.txHash);
console.log("SOL received:", result.nativeAmount);

Get Trending

Trending Tokens

const trending = await moonshot.getTrending({
  category: "gainers",
  limit: 20,
});

for (const token of trending) {
  console.log(token.symbol, token.marketCap);
}

Trade History

const trades = await moonshot.getTradeHistory("TokenMintAddress...", { limit: 50 });

for (const trade of trades) {
  console.log(trade.action, trade.tokenAmount, trade.priceUsd);
}

Platform Notes

Three-Step Launch Flow

Moonshot uses a distinct three-step process for token creation. The SDK first prepares an unsigned mint transaction via prepareMintTx, the wallet then signs it, and finally the signed transaction is submitted via submitMintTx. dex-skills abstracts this into a single launch() call.

Dexscreener Queries

Token data is sourced from Dexscreener rather than a platform-specific API. This means query results reflect aggregated market data across all trading venues for the token, not just Moonshot-specific activity.
