Base memecoin bots: an AI agent, a Telegram bot or a web terminal
Base is covered by tools with very different shapes. Bankr is the most used EVM-first option here: $569K in 30-day fees, all of it on Base and Robinhood Chain, and an AI agent you talk to in Telegram or on the web to place limit, stop, DCA and TWAP orders. Its free tier allows five messages a day on bankr.bot, and Bankr Club costs $20 a month.
o1.exchange is the opposite bet: a web terminal where 100% of tracked fees come from EVM chains, mostly Base and BSC, with a published cashback ladder that takes a 1% fee down to 0.60-0.80% net. Its weakness is size, $49.1K over 30 days, and it has no Telegram bot. Banana Gun, GMGN and Maestro let you trade Base from Telegram while also covering Ethereum, BSC and newer chains.
Base chain trading bots on Telegram: what to check before you deposit
Automation is usually the deciding feature on Base. Bankr documents limit, stop, DCA and TWAP orders and sponsors gas on Base, Polygon, Unichain, World Chain and BNB Chain. Banana Gun charges 0.5% on manual Ethereum trades and 1% on snipes and other chains and adds an anti-rug system, but its DefiLlama tracker is broken ($1.51K over 30 days against $911K over a year), so that figure cannot tell you how much it is used today.
Look at the fee you actually pay rather than the headline rate. GMGN charges a flat 1% and publishes no discount for new users; Bloom gives referred users 0.9% instead of 1%; Maestro returns 15-30% automatically; copyfomo charges 2% a trade for copy trading only. Sigma publishes a flat 1% on EVM chains but is not tracked by DefiLlama, and its documentation disagrees with itself on which chains it supports.
Who is behind the bot: custody, incidents and mobile use
Custody differs sharply. GMGN, Banana Gun, Maestro and Sigma use non-custodial wallets or bot wallets you can export; Terminal, pump.fun's own terminal (ex-Padre), publishes no fee schedule and no custody model, only a cashback promise of up to 35%. Incidents are documented on the cards: Banana Gun refunded users after a September 2024 compromise drained about $3M, and GMGN compensated users hit by an MEV sandwich attack in October 2025.
If you trade Base from a phone, fomo, GMGN and o1.exchange document mobile apps. fomo charges 0.50% a trade and lets you export your private keys from Settings at any time. The other tools here are web terminals or Telegram bots, and Bankr's agent answers on X only with Bankr Club or Max Mode.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best Base trading bot?
Bankr is the most used tool whose activity sits almost entirely on Base, with $569K in 30-day fees on DefiLlama and documented limit, stop, DCA and TWAP orders. o1.exchange offers the lowest net fee we can document on Base (0.60-0.80% after cashback), but its tracked usage is far smaller.
Which Telegram bot can I use on Base?
GMGN, Maestro, Banana Gun, Bloom, Sigma, Bankr and copyfomo all document Telegram execution on Base. Maestro covers 15 chains with 15-30% automatic cashback, Bloom charges referred users 0.9% instead of 1%, and copyfomo mirrors wallets from fomo's leaderboard for 2% a trade. Base support is not the same as Base focus: check the fee each one applies.
Is there a cheap Base memecoin bot?
o1.exchange brings its 1% down to 0.60-0.80% net through published cashback tiers, and Banana Gun charges 0.5% on manual Ethereum trades with 1% on snipes and other chains. Both undercut the flat 1% most bots charge. Bankr is the only one priced by plan: Bankr Club costs $20 a month, and its free tier allows five messages a day on bankr.bot.
Do Base trading bots need my wallet?
They all trade from a wallet, but not the same way. GMGN, Banana Gun and Maestro use non-custodial or bot wallets with key export; fomo creates an embedded wallet at sign-up, so there is no seed phrase to set up; Bankr and Terminal do not document their custody model. Only public addresses are needed for tracking tools.
Can I trade Base from my phone?
fomo, GMGN and o1.exchange document mobile apps. Telegram bots such as Maestro, Banana Gun, Bloom and copyfomo work anywhere Telegram runs. Axiom and Photon are desktop web terminals, and Bankr documents no mobile app at all.
Is Based Bot good for trading on Base?
Based Bot is a Telegram bot built around Base and 15 other networks, with a flat 1% fee, sniping, copytrading, limit orders and DCA, plus 40,460 monthly users on @based_eth_bot. DefiLlama does not track its fees, and it keeps your private key hashed on its servers, tied to your Telegram account.
