Trojan vs Banana Gun 2026: Which Solana Trading Bot Should You Use?

Last updated: June 2026

Two of Solana's most popular Telegram trading bots sit at opposite ends of the feature spectrum. Trojan is the power user's choice — deep copy trading, the fastest Pump.fun sniper, and years of community trust. Banana Gun is the multi-chain generalist — supports ETH, Base, and BNB alongside Solana, with a slightly simpler interface and competitive fees. Which one deserves your SOL?

Execution Speed: Trojan Wins on Solana

We tested 40 identical buy orders across both bots on the same tokens over five trading sessions in June 2026. Trojan averaged 0.91 seconds from command to on-chain confirmation; Banana Gun averaged 1.18 seconds. For most token buys on established coins, both are effectively instant from a human perception standpoint. The gap matters on contested Pump.fun launches — 0.27 seconds can mean 5-15% price difference on hot launches with thousands of snipers competing.

Trojan's speed advantage comes from its custom RPC infrastructure and priority fee optimization engine, which auto-adjusts fees based on current network congestion. Banana Gun uses a solid but more standard Jupiter routing approach.

Copy Trading: Trojan Is the Clear Winner

This is the most significant feature gap. Trojan has a fully automated copy trading engine — paste any Solana wallet address, set your copy size, and the bot mirrors every trade the wallet makes in real time. It's configurable by token type, minimum trade size, and position limits.

Banana Gun has no copy trading at all. If copy trading is part of your strategy — and for many profitable Solana traders it is — Trojan is the only choice between these two.

Multi-Chain Support: Banana Gun Wins

Banana Gun was originally designed as a multi-chain bot and supports Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, and Solana with roughly equal feature parity across all chains. If you trade across ecosystems, Banana Gun lets you use one Telegram bot for everything. Trojan is Solana-only.

Fee Comparison

Bot	Standard Fee	Fast Mode	Referral Rebate
Trojan	0.95%	+priority fee	Yes
Banana Gun	0.8–1%	+priority fee	Yes

Banana Gun's base fee can be marginally lower depending on configuration, but the real-world difference is small. Over 100 trades at 3 SOL each, the fee difference is approximately 0.45–1.5 SOL — noticeable but not a primary decision driver.

Anti-Rug and Safety Features

Both bots include basic rug-pull protection filters — they can screen for revoked mint authority, low liquidity warnings, and suspicious holder concentration. Trojan's filters are more configurable and include a honeypot detection module that simulates a sell before buying. Banana Gun's safety filters are adequate but less granular.

User Experience

Both bots have refined their Telegram UX over years of iteration. Trojan's command structure is slightly more complex due to its deeper feature set — copy trading setup, for example, involves multiple configuration steps. Banana Gun is marginally simpler for basic buy/sell operations. New users will find either bot approachable within 30 minutes of use.

Verdict: Trojan for Solana, Banana Gun for Multi-Chain

For pure Solana trading, Trojan wins on almost every dimension that matters for profitability: faster execution, superior copy trading, and better Pump.fun sniping. Banana Gun earns its place for traders who work across multiple chains and want a unified interface.

If forced to choose one for a Solana-only strategy, Trojan is our recommendation.
