Quickdraw uses Solana nonce accounts to pre-sign transactions, letting you execute trades the instant you click—no wallet popup, no waiting.

What is Quickdraw?

Normal Solana transactions require:
  1. You click “Buy”
  2. Wallet popup appears
  3. You approve the transaction
  4. Transaction is built and sent
  5. Transaction lands on-chain
With Quickdraw enabled:
  1. Transactions are pre-signed and ready
  2. You click “Buy”
  3. Transaction executes immediately
The difference can be seconds—which matters when sniping launches or catching dips.

How It Works

Quickdraw uses nonce accounts—a Solana feature that lets you pre-sign transactions with a future-valid signature. When you enable Quickdraw:
  1. A small amount of SOL is deposited into a nonce account
  2. Transactions are pre-built and signed
  3. When you trade, the pre-signed transaction fires instantly
  4. The nonce account advances to the next state
Nonce accounts require a small SOL deposit (rent-exempt minimum). This SOL is recoverable when you disable Quickdraw.

Enabling Quickdraw

  1. Go to SettingsTrading
  2. Find the Quickdraw section
  3. Toggle Enable Quickdraw
  4. Approve the nonce account creation transaction
  5. Wait for confirmation

Quickdraw Status

When Quickdraw is active, you’ll see indicators showing:
  • Ready: Pre-signed transaction available, instant execution ready
  • Refreshing: Building next pre-signed transaction
  • Disabled: Standard transaction flow (wallet approval required)
Look for the Quickdraw status indicator near the trade buttons.
If you see the Quickdraw indicator showing “Refreshing” frequently, your nonce account may need more SOL deposited to cover transaction costs.

When to Use Quickdraw

Best for:
  • Sniping new token launches
  • Catching sudden dips
  • High-frequency trading
  • Any situation where milliseconds matter
Consider disabling for:
  • Large trades you want to double-check
  • Unfamiliar tokens
  • When you want the extra confirmation step

Managing Your Nonce Account

Checking Status

View your nonce account status in Settings → Trading → Quickdraw. You’ll see:
  • Current balance
  • Number of pre-signed transactions available
  • Account health

Adding Funds

If your nonce account runs low:
  1. Go to Quickdraw settings
  2. Click Add Funds
  3. Deposit additional SOL

Disabling & Withdrawing

To disable Quickdraw and recover your SOL:
  1. Go to Settings → Trading → Quickdraw
  2. Toggle Disable Quickdraw
  3. Confirm the withdrawal transaction
  4. SOL returns to your main wallet

Troubleshooting

Quickdraw not firing instantly?
  • Check that nonce account has sufficient balance
  • Ensure Quickdraw is enabled (look for the indicator)
  • Network congestion can still affect landing time
Transaction failed after Quickdraw?
  • Nonce may have advanced—system will auto-rebuild
  • Check that you have enough SOL for the trade
  • Slippage settings may need adjustment
Can’t enable Quickdraw?
  • Ensure you have enough SOL for the nonce account deposit
  • Check wallet connection
  • Try refreshing and reconnecting
