Trojan vs BONKBot: Solana Trading Bot Telegram Ads in 2026

Introduction#

Trojan and BONKBot are two of the highest-spending Solana trading bots on Telegram in 2026, and they fight for the same retail trader the moment that trader installs Telegram and decides they want to buy a memecoin. Both bots offer fast swaps, copytrading, sniping, and limit orders inside chat — but their brand positions, creative approaches, and audience overlap differently. Tgadsspy data shows that almost any channel running a BONKBot ad in a given week is also serving Trojan within a few days, and vice versa.

BONKBot profile#

BONKBot grew out of the BONK community on Solana and inherited that culture: friendly tone, simple interface, broad accessibility, and a strong association with the memecoin retail crowd. Its creative library on Telegram is dominated by cartoonish dog mascots, bright orange accents, and headlines that emphasize ease of use — "Trade memecoins on Telegram in seconds," "No app, no wallet hassle, just /buy."

The bot offers swaps, limit orders, copytrading, and standard sniper features, with the BONK community angle as a constant tailwind. BONKBot positions itself as the friendly default — the bot you start with before graduating to more advanced tooling.

Trojan profile#

Trojan positions itself almost as the inverse of BONKBot: serious, technical, security-forward. Visuals lean dark with neon accents, and copy emphasizes MEV protection, sub-second sniping, advanced risk filters, and multi-wallet management. Trojan ads frequently spotlight features that imply higher trader sophistication — DCA strategies, automated TP/SL ladders, configurable copytrade filters.

The brand appeals to the trader who has already churned through one or two simpler bots and now wants more control, more speed, and more protection from MEV bots and rug pulls.

Key differences in Telegram strategy#

BONKBot ads cast a wider, friendlier net. They appear in broad memecoin discovery channels, BONK-community feeds, casual trader groups, and onboarding-focused content. The creative tone assumes a relatively new trader, and the call-to-action is usually a one-tap deep link with minimal explanation.

Trojan ads aim narrower but deeper. They concentrate in alpha groups, sniper communities, high-volume trader feeds, and channels covering Solana DeFi rather than purely meme launches. Creative assumes the reader knows what MEV is, what slippage costs, and what copytrading filters do. Trojan also runs more head-to-head comparison creative, often implicitly positioning itself against simpler bots.

Both brands compete fiercely in shared inventory, and each runs near-continuous campaigns with high creative refresh rates to combat ad fatigue.

Conclusion#

BONKBot wins the volume game on the friendly-onboarding side; Trojan wins the depth-of-feature game on the serious-trader side. Together they define the competitive landscape that every other Solana trading bot must navigate on Telegram. Track both brands' active ads in real time at tgadsspy.com/ads.
