Been using sniper bots for a while now and most guides out there are just affiliate lists with no real data behind them.
What ive found after testing a few options this year: execution speed varies a lot more than people think, especially on Solana where sub 2sec entry vs 4sec entry can mean a completely different price on a new launch.
Key things i look for now: MEV protection, non-custodial setup, and whether the bot handles failed txns gracefully during network congestion.
Trojan is still the fastest on SOL in my experience. Maestro if you trade ETH or multi-chain. BullX Neo is decent for a hybrid web and Telegram workflow.
Put together a more detailed breakdown with fee comparisons and Dune data here if anyone wants the full picture: https://telegramtrading.net/best-telegram-sniper-bots/
Whats everyone else using for entries on new launches?
