I simply wanted to learn how to interact with Ethereum smart contracts. Inspiration was also drawn from witnessing bots game the minting system of NFT launches. In addition, I was keen to know how it was accomplished.
Perhaps the publicity of this code would encourage developers of NFT projects to implement anti-bot mechanisms so that this repository is rendered useless. We are still early in the Web3 space, let's make it better!
$ npm install
$ cp .env.public .env
After running the command above, update the .env file with RPC URI, Contract Address and your wallets private key. Alternatively, you can provide your wallet private key as a command line argument.
