Best Ethereum trading bots in 2026: 12 tools compared
Of the 12 trading bots on DegenBench that support Ethereum, GMGN is the most used on Ethereum by DefiLlama’s count: $255K in fees in the 30 days to 9 November 2026, ahead of fomo ($197K) and Maestro ($56.3K). DefiLlama measures Bankr and Photon on other chains only.
The best Ethereum trading bot for most people is the one they already use on other chains, because ETH is one network among many in these tools. The 12 below are ranked by their 30-day fees on Ethereum, as tracked by DefiLlama, with fee schedules, chains and custody from their official pages. GMGN, Maestro and Banana Gun all document Ethereum trading.

ETH sniper bots on Telegram: what is documented, and what is not
Telegram is where most Ethereum sniping happens. Maestro documents sniping, copy trading, limit orders and wallet tracking across 15 chains, with 15-30% automatic cashback on a 1% fee, and it is the only bot here that also trades TON and Tron. Sigma publishes anti-rug checks, contract simulation and backup bots that share your wallets and settings when the main bot slows, but no independent usage figure exists because DefiLlama does not track it.
Banana Gun offers the lowest documented manual rate on Ethereum, 0.5%, against 1% on snipes, and runs one Telegram bot for all its chains plus the Banana Pro web terminal. Its DefiLlama tracker is unreliable right now, $1.51K over 30 days against $911K over a year, so read its 30-day figure as a tracking fault rather than a fall in use. Its EVM sniper bot, @BananaGunSniper_bot, shows 14,518 monthly Telegram users.
Router risk on Ethereum, and how much of the fee you keep
Ethereum execution carries router risk that Solana-only traders rarely run into. Maestro refunded about 610 ETH, roughly $500K, after a router exploit on Ethereum in October 2023, which is why the security page and the incident list published on each card are worth reading before you deposit. GMGN documents anti-MEV and compensated users hit by a sandwich attack in October 2025.
On price, GMGN charges a flat 1% with no new-user discount, o1.exchange takes its 1% down to 0.60-0.80% net through cashback, Bloom charges referred users 0.9%, and fomo charges 0.50%, or 0.45% with a referral code. Terminal, pump.fun's own terminal and the ex-Padre app, publishes only a fee ceiling of up to 1% and no custody model, plus a cashback promise of up to 35%.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best Ethereum trading bot?
GMGN and Maestro are the two most documented options here: GMGN with $8.67M in 30-day fees on DefiLlama and about 55% of them on EVM chains, Maestro with 15 chains and 15-30% automatic cashback. Banana Gun documents the cheapest manual route at 0.5%, but its public usage data is currently broken.
Is there a Uniswap trading bot on this list?
None of these tools is built for a single venue: on Ethereum they trade through their own contracts and routers, and each publishes its own fee. Because routing sits inside the bot, its security record matters. Maestro, for example, refunded about 610 ETH after a router exploit on Ethereum in October 2023.
Which Ethereum sniper bot has the lowest fees?
Banana Gun at 0.5% on manual Ethereum trades, with 1% on snipes and other chains. o1.exchange reaches 0.60-0.80% net after cashback tiers, Bloom gives referred users 0.9%, and GMGN charges a flat 1% with no discount. Sigma publishes 1% flat on EVM chains but is absent from DefiLlama, so its usage cannot be verified independently.
Do Ethereum trading bots protect against MEV?
Several document it: GMGN, Sigma, Banana Gun, Maestro, Bloom, o1.exchange and BONKbot all list MEV protection, and Sigma adds re-org protection. It is not a guarantee. GMGN compensated users after a sandwich attack in October 2025 despite its anti-MEV settings, so treat the switch as one layer of protection rather than a promise.
Can I trade Ethereum and Solana from one bot?
Yes, most tools here cover both: GMGN, Maestro, Banana Gun, Bloom, Axiom, Bankr, Sigma, o1.exchange, copyfomo, fomo, Terminal and Photon all list Solana and at least one EVM chain. Trojan and BONKbot are the exceptions, as they trade Solana only. Check which chains earn each bot its fees before assuming equal liquidity.
