# Mints

**Mints** is a built-in FOMO CLI command that gives you a fast, point-in-time view on what’s *happening* right now.

It pulls recent arbitrage activity, ranks mints by your chosen metric (momentum/ROI/volume/etc.), and returns a tight shortlist you can use to research and refine your FOMO mint strategies — no doomscrolling charts, no burning fees blindly.

**Basic Usage:**

```shell
./FOMO mints --rank-by "momentum" --min-txs 1 --aggregation-window 300 --min-volume 100
```

#### Tips

1. **Start loose, then tighten** — Set filters low initially to see overall market activity, then gradually increase thresholds.
2. **Run frequently** — Markets shift fast. Take multiple snapshots while strategizing to identify patterns.
3. **Balance is key** — If mints constantly pass your triggers, your thresholds are too loose. A healthy strategy shows a mix of "hot mint found" and "cooling down" periods.
4. **Match your config** — Use the displayed config values to update your `[strategy.spam.mints.fomo]` section in [**config.toml**](https://vscode-file/vscode-app/Applications/Visual%20Studio%20Code.app/Contents/Resources/app/out/vs/code/electron-browser/workbench/workbench.html).
5. **Don't chase** — Trust the strategy you're comfortable with. Lower thresholds = more burns.
