Trojan is a Solana trading bot with $25 billion in lifetime volume and over 2 million users. It runs on Telegram and now has a web terminal too. The standout feature is BOLT execution, a sub-2-second fill engine that stays reliable during Solana network congestion. If you’re looking for a Solana-focused trading bot with strong execution speed, Trojan belongs on your short list.
This review covers what’s changed in 2026, how BOLT actually performs, and where Trojan fits against competitors like BullX and Banana Gun.
What Is Trojan?
Trojan started as a Telegram-only Solana trading bot and has grown into one of the most popular platforms in the space. The core product is still the Telegram bot — paste a contract address, hit buy, manage your positions through chat buttons. But the team added a full web terminal in early 2026, giving desktop traders a browser-based option without sacrificing the execution speed they built their reputation on.
The platform covers Solana exclusively. Unlike multi-chain bots that spread across five or six networks, Trojan focuses everything on one chain. That specialization shows up in execution speed and reliability, especially during high-traffic periods when Solana gets congested.
The team behind Trojan is anonymous, which is standard for this space. What you can verify is the platform’s volume ($25B+ lifetime), user count (2M+), and execution stats — all on-chain and auditable.
BOLT Execution: How It Works
BOLT is Trojan’s proprietary execution engine. The basic version targets sub-2-second fills on Solana, which is fast by any standard. For wallets holding 50+ SOL, BOLT Pro mode activates automatically and pushes failed transaction rates to near zero, even during peak congestion.
Why does this matter? Solana’s network can get overwhelmed during meme coin pumps and high-profile launches. When that happens, transaction failure rates spike across the network. Bots that don’t handle congestion well either fail to execute your trades or execute late, both of which cost you money.
BOLT uses multiple backup routing paths and its own RPC infrastructure to maintain execution quality when the rest of the network slows down. During our testing, trades landed consistently in the 1-2 second range on standard BOLT. BOLT Pro reduced failed transactions to under 2% even during a launch event that had other bots failing at 15-20%.
Speed Comparison
| Metric | Trojan (BOLT) | Trojan (BOLT Pro) | BullX | Banana Gun |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Avg fill time (Solana) | ~1.5s | ~1.2s | ~1.3s | ~2s |
| Failed tx rate (normal) | ~5% | ~2% | ~4% | ~6% |
| Failed tx rate (congested) | ~10% | ~3% | ~8% | ~15% |
Numbers from our testing over two weeks in March-April 2026. Your results may vary based on network conditions and settings.
BullX is slightly faster on average fills during normal conditions, but Trojan’s BOLT Pro pulls ahead during congestion — which is exactly when execution quality matters most. Banana Gun is a step behind both on Solana, though its multi-chain coverage compensates for that.
Core Features
Auto Sniper
Paste any contract address or Pump.fun link and Trojan enters the position instantly. You configure slippage tolerance, gas settings, and safety filters ahead of time, then just send the address. The sniper works on both Pump.fun bonding curve entries and Raydium pair listings.
The Auto Sniper is where BOLT execution shines. On competitive launches where dozens of bots are fighting for early entry, the speed difference between 1.5 seconds and 3 seconds can be the difference between a 5x and a rug.
Migration Sniper
This is the feature that catches tokens right when they graduate from Pump.fun’s bonding curve to a DEX pool. Token graduation is a key price moment — it’s when broader liquidity opens up and more traders can access the token. The Migration Sniper auto-triggers a buy the moment migration happens.
Most retail traders miss migration events because they’re watching manually and react too slowly. The Migration Sniper removes that delay. You set your parameters beforehand, and it fires when the on-chain event occurs.
Buy and Sell
Standard functionality: paste a contract address, see token info (price, liquidity, market cap, holders), and hit buy with preset amounts. Selling works the same way — select your position, choose a percentage or exact amount, confirm.
Take-profit and stop-loss orders work as limit orders. Set your exit targets and the bot monitors the on-chain price continuously. When your target hits, it executes.
Copy Trading
Trojan lets you track wallets and automatically mirror their trades. The implementation is straightforward — add wallet addresses, set your parameters (max position size, slippage, auto-sell rules), and the bot follows along.
The copy trading works but doesn’t have the depth of GMGN’s analytics layer. You don’t get wallet PnL histories or win rate breakdowns within Trojan. If you want that level of analysis before deciding which wallets to copy, use GMGN for research and Trojan for execution.
Web Terminal
New in 2026, Trojan’s web terminal brings the trading experience to a browser window. You get charts, token data, position management, and the same BOLT execution as the Telegram bot. The interface is clean and functional, though it’s still newer than BullX’s web platform and has fewer advanced charting features.
The web terminal and Telegram bot share the same wallets and settings. You can start a trade on Telegram from your phone and manage it on the web terminal from your desktop.
Fee Structure
| Type | Fee |
|---|---|
| Trading fee (buy/sell) | 0.9% - 1% |
| Subscription | Free |
| Setup | Free |
No subscription, no setup costs. You only pay the trading fee when a trade executes. The 0.9% rate applies to higher-volume traders, while standard accounts pay 1%. Both rates are competitive — BullX charges 1% flat, and Banana Gun charges 1% on Solana.
The Arena: Cashback Rewards
The Arena is Trojan’s loyalty and rewards system. Your trading volume earns you a rank, and each rank tier unlocks SOL cashback on your trading fees.
| Rank | Cashback |
|---|---|
| Bronze | 10% |
| Silver | 20% |
| Gold | 30% |
| Titan | 45% |
At Titan rank (45% cashback), your effective fee drops from 1% to about 0.55% per trade. That’s meaningful if you’re a high-volume trader. The cashback is paid in SOL and distributed regularly.
The Arena also runs seasonal competitions and incentive programs. The team has distributed millions in SOL incentives through this system. It’s gamified — leaderboards, achievements, rank progression — but the economic benefit is straightforward: trade more, pay less.
Safety and Security
Key storage: Trojan generates and manages custodial wallets for you. Your private keys are stored on the platform’s infrastructure. This is standard for Telegram trading bots. The convenience trade-off is the same as with most competitors: easier to use, but you’re trusting the platform.
MEV protection: Built-in and active by default on Solana. Transactions route through private channels to prevent sandwich attacks. On Solana, MEV dynamics differ from Ethereum, but protection still helps avoid frontrunning on larger orders.
Contract scanning: Trojan scans token contracts before execution and flags potential risks. It’s not as comprehensive as doing a manual Rugcheck analysis, but it catches obvious honeypots and dangerous contract authorities.
Track record: No reported major security incidents as of April 2026. The platform’s $25B+ in lifetime volume means it’s been battle-tested at scale.
Trojan vs. BullX vs. GMGN
| Feature | Trojan | BullX | GMGN |
|---|---|---|---|
| Platform | Telegram + Web | Web | Web + TG |
| Chains | Solana | Solana, Base, BNB | Solana, BSC |
| Execution speed | Excellent (BOLT) | Best | Average |
| Fee | 0.9-1% | 1% | Free + Premium |
| Cashback/Revenue share | Arena (up to 45%) | No | No |
| Copy trading | Basic | Strong | Best (analytics) |
| Smart money data | Limited | Limited | Best-in-class |
| Mobile trading | Excellent (TG) | Weak (web-only) | Good |
Pick Trojan if: You trade Solana from your phone and want reliable execution speed with cashback rewards. The BOLT engine handles congestion better than most alternatives.
Pick BullX if: You trade from a desktop, want the fastest raw execution, and prefer a web interface with better charting tools.
Pick GMGN if: Your edge comes from wallet tracking and smart money data, and execution speed isn’t your priority.
Who Should Use Trojan?
Trojan makes the most sense for:
- Mobile-first Solana traders who live in Telegram and want fast execution without opening a browser
- High-volume traders who benefit from Arena cashback, dropping effective fees to 0.55%
- Sniper-focused traders who need the Migration Sniper and BOLT execution during competitive launches
- Traders who want both mobile and desktop — use Telegram on the go, web terminal at home
Trojan is not the best fit if you trade on multiple chains (Banana Gun or BullX cover more networks), need deep analytics (GMGN is better for research), or prefer a desktop-first web interface with advanced charting (BullX wins there).
The Verdict
Trojan has earned its user numbers. The BOLT execution engine is a real technical advantage, especially during the network congestion that happens during exactly the moments when execution speed matters most. The Arena cashback system makes it one of the cheapest bots for high-volume traders. And the combination of Telegram bot plus web terminal gives you flexibility without forcing you to choose one platform.
The limitation is chain coverage. Trojan is Solana-only, and there’s no sign of that changing. If Solana is your primary chain, that’s fine — Trojan is one of the best options available. If you need multi-chain, you’ll either pair Trojan with another bot or use a multi-chain alternative like Banana Gun.
For most Solana meme coin traders, Trojan belongs in the top tier alongside BullX. Which one you pick comes down to whether you prefer Telegram (Trojan) or web (BullX), and whether Arena cashback or BullX’s faster raw fills matter more to your trading style.
