Blockchain Development Programming Tutorials, Guides & Best Practices

Create a new file called index.js and add the following code to connect to the Solana blockchain:

const solanaWeb3 = require('@solana/web3.js');

// Connect to the Solana Devnet
const connection = new solanaWeb3.Connection(
  solanaWeb3.clusterApiUrl('devnet'),
  'confirmed'
);

console.log('Connected to Solana Devnet');

We will use Etherscan's API to fetch information about newly created tokens. Add the following function to your index.js file:

const axios = require('axios');

// Replace with your Etherscan API key
const ETHERSCAN_API_KEY = 'YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY';

async function getNewTokens() {
  try {
    const url = `https://api.etherscan.io/api?module=account&action=tokentx&address=0x0&startblock=0&endblock=99999999&sort=asc&apikey=${ETHERSCAN_API_KEY}`;
    const response = await axios.get(url);

    if (response.data.status === '1') {
      const transactions = response.data.result;
      const newTokens = transactions.filter(tx => tx.tokenSymbol && tx.tokenName && tx.from === '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000');

      console.log('Newly Created Tokens:');
      newTokens.forEach(token => {
        console.log(`- Token Name: ${token.tokenName}`);
        console.log(`  Token Symbol: ${token.tokenSymbol}`);
        console.log(`  Token Contract Address: ${token.contractAddress}`);
      });
    } else {
      console.error('Error fetching token transactions:', response.data.message);
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error:', error);
  }
}

getNewTokens();

Note the token mint address returned by this command, as you'll need it for minting and transferring tokens.

Create a token account to hold your newly created tokens. This account is associated with your wallet:
