Pump fun bot settings: slippage, MEV and priority fees
GMGN's own documentation recommends 30-50% slippage on memecoins, which gets expensive on larger orders, and GMGN compensated users hit by an MEV sandwich attack in October 2025 despite its anti-MEV setting. Axiom documents anti-MEV, wallet monitoring and pump.fun migration actions rather than a single sniper screen. Photon adds Smart-MEV protection to its flat 1% and documents limit orders, DCA and multi-wallet trading.
Priority fees are charged by the network, not by the bot, and GMGN states plainly that they come on top of its 1%. That is why the fastest bot is not automatically the cheapest: Banana Gun's 0.5% manual rate on Ethereum still leaves you paying priority fees into a congested launch, and Trojan and Sigma both document backup bots for exactly that moment.
Best sniper bot Solana: what each one costs you
Snipe rates cluster around 1%. GMGN charges a flat 1% with no new-user discount, Axiom 1% headline falling to 0.95% and 0.75% net at its tiers, Trojan 1% with 20% cashback on bot trades, Photon a flat and documented 1%, Bloom 0.9% for referred users, BONKbot 1% with 5-25% volume cashback. Sigma documents 0% trading fees on Solana while charging 1% on EVM chains.
Custody is the other half of the choice. BONKbot seals keys in a hardware-backed manager and requires 2FA or a passkey for exports, Maestro AES-encrypts keys and shows them once, Bloom shows the private key once in Telegram, and GMGN, Trojan, Photon and Banana Gun allow key export. pump.fun's own terminal, the ex-Padre app, publishes no fee schedule, no custody model and no referral terms.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best pump.fun sniper bot?
Axiom documents pump.fun migration actions alongside sniping, wallet monitoring and Hyperliquid perps, with fees from 0.95% net down to 0.75%. GMGN covers sniping, wallet radar and anti-MEV in one account for a flat 1%, Trojan adds copy trading and DCA on the same wallets, and Photon handles limit orders, DCA and multi-wallet for 1%.
Is a Solana sniper bot worth it?
Only if you can control slippage and priority fees. GMGN's documentation recommends 30-50% slippage on memecoins, which is costly on bigger orders, and priority fees are charged by the network on top of the bot's own fee. Incidents happen too: GMGN compensated users after an MEV sandwich attack in October 2025 despite its anti-MEV setting.
Which sniper bot has the lowest fees?
Sigma documents 0% trading fees on Solana while charging 1% on EVM chains. Among the bots that do charge on Solana, Bloom's 0.9% for referred users is the lowest published rate, then Trojan's 20% cashback, which brings 1% down to 0.80% net. GMGN and Photon charge a flat 1% with no discount at all.
Do sniper bots work during a busy launch?
Some document it directly: Trojan runs nine backup bots, and Sigma provides backup bots that share your wallets and settings when the main bot slows down. Bots that document multi-wallet support, such as GMGN, Axiom, Photon and o1.exchange, let you spread orders across several wallets. None of them promises execution at a given speed.
Can I snipe pump.fun launches from Telegram?
Yes. Trojan, BONKbot, Maestro, Bloom, Banana Gun and Sigma all document Telegram execution on Solana, and GMGN runs Telegram bots sharing one account with its website. Axiom and Photon are web terminals only, with no Telegram bot and no native mobile app, so they are desktop tools during a launch; o1.exchange has no Telegram bot either, but documents a mobile app.
