Subglow vs Trojan

Telegram-native Solana sniper bot

Trojan is a hardcore Telegram sniper bot with one of the fastest buy pipelines on Solana. It's not really a copy-trading product — it has basic wallet-copy features, but its DNA is sniping. If you want automated copy with portfolio-level risk rules, Subglow is the better fit.

Where Subglow wins

  • Real copy-trading engine
    Trojan's copy-trade features are a thin wrapper around their sniper. Subglow has a proper copy-trade engine with per-wallet configs, proportional sells, and server-side trigger loops for TP/SL/trailing.
  • Portfolio-level risk
    Subglow tracks your entire copy-trade portfolio and enforces portfolio-% limits and per-token SOL caps across it. Trojan is per-trade — you set sizes manually each time.
  • Web dashboard
    Some users want a proper dashboard for history, analytics, and config. Subglow has /copy-trade/positions, /history, and /analytics pages. Trojan is Telegram-only.
  • Per-trade economics at volume
    Trojan charges 0.9% per trade. Subglow is 0.2%. At 100 copied trades/week × 1 SOL, that's 70 SOL/week in fee difference.

Where Trojan wins

  • Raw sniping speed
    Trojan is one of the fastest Pump.fun snipers in the Telegram ecosystem. If you manually target fresh launches and want to be first in the block, they're a legit pick.
  • Telegram-native workflow
    Everything happens in Telegram — no web app, no dashboard. Lean users love this; others find it limiting.
  • Referral economics
    Trojan pays generous referral revenue shares. If you run a community, their referral program is aggressive.

  • You run high copy-trade volume and 0.2% vs 0.9% per trade materially changes your PnL.

Our honest verdict

Trojan is a sniper first, copy bot second. Subglow is the opposite. If your primary use case is mirroring KOL wallets with real risk rules, Subglow is built for it. If your primary use case is manually sniping fresh launches in Telegram and occasionally tagging a wallet to follow, Trojan wins. These are different tools — pick the one that matches 80% of what you actually do.
