# Welcome

Welcome to the `copychain` documentation.&#x20;

`copychain` is a Linux tool that allows you to copy onchain trading sessions of any **SolanaMevBot (SMB)** or **NotArb** wallet. Under the hood, the `smb-onchain` binary is used to manage your trading sessions.

A session in `copychain` refers to a set of transactions, with mints and pools, performed by a wallet for a given time. The tool starts copying when the target wallet begins a session and stops when it ends.

{% hint style="warning" %}
This tool is designed to work exclusively for Linux copying "onchain" arbitrage bots, without "offchain" router.
{% endhint %}

### What this tool is able to copy

* Another user's complete transaction (mints + pools) as "session" : it starts when they start and stops when they stop
* Their Address Lookup Tables
* Their `compute_unit_limit`
* Their priority fees/jito tips (optional)
