Best Ethereum trading bots in 2026: 12 tools compared

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 30-day fees tracked on 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 separate sniper and sell bots plus the Banana Pro web terminal. Its DefiLlama tracker is unreliable right now, $7.2K over 30 days against $2.7M over a year, so read its 30-day figure as a tracking fault rather than a fall in use. Its sniper bot alone shows about 35,800 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 shows the swap cost before you confirm without publishing a fee schedule. Terminal, pump.fun's own terminal and the ex-Padre app, publishes neither a fee schedule nor a custody model, only 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 $51.9M in 30-day fees on DefiLlama and about 88% 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 trades, with 1% on snipes. 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.
