i’ve recently moved my trench flow over to banana gun to test it under real market conditions.
the main reason was simple: the economics on most telegram trading bots get ugly once you actually calculate what it takes to reach the better cashback tiers.
on most telegram trading bots, regular users start around 5% cashback and need to generate close to $1m in spot volume just to unlock 25%.
this isn’t leveraged perps volume either. it’s actual buys and sells.
with a 1% bot fee and another 1% fee on most launchpad tokens, reaching that level can cost roughly $18,000 in fees even after accounting for the cashback increasing along the way.
that number genuinely surprised me.
influencers can sometimes get better private rates, but for most users the path to maximum cashback is much more expensive.
banana gun normally starts at 15%, so i reached out to the team and managed to get a better deal for anyone who also wants to test it through my link.
you’ll get 30% cashback for one full month, activated after your first trade:

the useful part here is that you get the maximum rate immediately instead of having to generate a huge amount of volume first.
you can use that month to test the bot, compare it with whatever you currently use and build volume under better conditions.
if you trade enough, it should also make the path toward a higher permanent cashback tier easier.
for now, i’m testing it with my own trades.
even if you already use another bot, you can try it with a small deposit and compare the fees, routing and overall experience yourself.
register through the link in this post or the one in my bio to get 30% cashback for your first month.
