What is a Liquidation Bot?

A liquidation bot monitors collateralized lending positions and submits transactions to liquidate eligible debt. It repays part of a borrower's debt and receives collateral under the protocol's liquidation rules, seeking compensation above execution and financing costs.

How does a Liquidation Bot work?

The bot reads positions and oracle prices, checks eligibility, obtains repayment assets, and calls the protocol's liquidation function. Other liquidators may compete for the same position.

What should trading bot developers know about Liquidation Bot?

Eligibility, repayment limits, collateral discounts, and oracle behavior are protocol-specific. A transaction may fail if another actor liquidates first or the position becomes healthy before execution.
