BasedBot — Best inside Telegram
BasedBot lives inside Telegram, with a matching web terminal and Chrome extension on the same account: sniper, migration sniper, copy trading, DCA, take-profit and stop-loss, plus a built-in bridge that moves funds between 19 chains in seconds. It manages your trading wallet for you, so keep only what you are actively trading in it.
BonkBot / Telemetry — The OG Solana bot, now a terminal
BonkBot was the first big Solana Telegram bot; Telemetry is its web and mobile terminal with sub-millisecond execution, wallet tracking for up to 800 wallets and a non-custodial passkey wallet. Both charge a flat 1 % per successful trade. On Telemetry a volume-based Level-Up program returns up to 25 % of fees in SOL. Volume has dropped a lot since the 2024 peak.
