Which one should you pick?

Pick Terminal if

You live on pump.fun launches and want the terminal built by the launchpad itself.

pump.fun’s own terminal, formerly Padre, and still the fourth most used tool here. Its terms cap the fee at 1% a trade and it advertises up to 35% cashback, but it publishes no fee schedule, custody model or referral terms we could verify.

Pick Based Bot if

You trade Base, Ethereum, BSC or Solana launches from Telegram and want one account that covers everything, from sniping to DCA.

The widest net on this list: one account trades 16 networks, from Base, Ethereum, BSC and Solana to Monad, MegaETH and HyperEVM, with a flat 1% fee. Its dual rewards program is the deepest here, 25% of your referrals’ fees plus a 5% to 25% cashback ladder on your own volume. Automations run from copytrading and sniping to social copytrading on X and DCA, and the same login opens a web terminal. Your private key sits hashed on its servers, tied to your Telegram account, and DefiLlama does not track it, so its usage can only be judged from Telegram.
