Ghost

Ghost (tryghost.xyz) is a blockchain infrastructure and data R&D studio, operated under SnowGenesis Inc., that builds tooling for both Solana and EVM-compatible networks. The team's work spans MEV analysis, smart contract data indexing, open-source developer utilities, and validator operations. Rather than focusing on a single chain or product, Ghost ships standalone tools and platforms across different parts of the developer stack.

Sandwiched.me: Solana MEV Transparency

Ghost's most prominent Solana-focused product is Sandwiched.me, a public data platform that tracks sandwich attacks and atomic arbitrage on the Solana network. The dashboard surfaces detected sandwich counts, extracted SOL totals, victim counts, active bots, affected liquidity pools, and validator-level attribution — giving researchers and traders a transparent view into Solana's MEV landscape.

Ghost's own year-long analysis of the data found that wide multi-slot sandwiches — attacks where the frontrun and backrun transactions land in different validator leader slots — accounted for 93% of all detected Solana sandwich attacks and extracted more than 529,000 SOL over the measurement period. The platform also published anti-sandwich, an open-source Rust proof-of-concept demonstrating how Solana programs can detect and respond dynamically to malicious validator routing at runtime, offering developers a reference architecture for MEV protection.

GhostGraph: Solidity-Native Indexing

On the EVM side, Ghost developed GhostGraph, a blockchain indexing framework that allows developers to write data transformation logic in Solidity rather than AssemblyScript or TypeScript — the languages required by most competing indexers. Developers define their indexing schemas and transformation logic using familiar Solidity syntax, deploy through Ghost's hosted infrastructure, and query the resulting data via auto-generated GraphQL endpoints.

GhostGraph supports existing Solidity projects without modification, enabling code reuse across both the protocol and indexing layers. It is listed as an official data indexer in Base's developer documentation alongside established tools such as The Graph, Envio, and Flair. Published tutorials demonstrate integrations with projects on Unichain, Abstract, and Berachain, reflecting cross-chain adoption beyond Base alone.

GhostLogs: Retroactive Contract Events

GhostLogs extends the onchain data layer in a different direction: it lets teams add custom events and view functions to already-deployed smart contracts without redeploying or altering the original bytecode. Through an in-browser IDE, developers define new event schemas and instruct Ghost's infrastructure to backfill them across historical transactions. Ghost then generates a dedicated RPC endpoint — called GhostFork — that surfaces these synthetic events alongside native chain data.

The practical outcome is that analytics teams can build Dune or Flipside queries against event schemas that never existed on-chain, recovering observability from contracts that were originally deployed without adequate logging. GhostLogs supports both Solidity and Vyper contracts and entered private beta in 2024.

Open-Source Developer Tools

Ghost's GitHub organization (tryghostxyz) hosts several standalone open-source utilities. solfi-sim is a Rust library that uses LiteSVM to run local simulations against the SolFi DEX, allowing developers to inspect pricing curve mechanics and test trade routing without touching mainnet. gg-program-resurrect reconstructs historical Solana program binaries from on-chain upgrade buffer data, useful for security researchers and auditors examining programs that have subsequently been upgraded or closed. ghost-tg-bot is a reference implementation showing how to route Ghost indexing data into Telegram bot applications. berastribute is a Berachain-specific utility that helps validators retrieve consensus proofs and execute BGT reward distributions.

Solana Validator

Ghost operates a Solana mainnet validator at a 5% commission rate. The team reports 100% uptime and 632,512 SOL in delegated stake. The validator is positioned as part of Ghost's broader infrastructure offering, with public reporting on performance metrics and monitoring for delegators.

Consulting and Protocol Research

Alongside its own products, Ghost offers consulting engagements covering technology stack selection, stress testing, and data pipeline design for teams building onchain applications. The firm's protocol research practice conducts black-box testing and historical chain analysis for DeFi protocols and applications seeking quantitative insight into their onchain behavior. Clients engage Ghost to design and operate high-performance indexing pipelines that deliver real-time, query-ready data for production applications.

Ghost's combination of Solana-native MEV research, EVM indexing infrastructure, open-source tooling, and active validator operations positions it as a generalist infrastructure studio rather than a single-product team, with a research output that has been cited in independent analyses of Solana's MEV environment.
