What Maestro was, and what it is now
One of the oldest Telegram sniper bots, live since 2022. It runs on BSC, Ethereum, Solana, Base and more. DefiLlama has been tracking its fee take since 2022-07-01.
Its strongest 30-day window collected $11.5M in fees and ended 2025-02-16. The trailing 30 days collected $1.97M. That is the entire story on one line: it is running at 17.1% of its own best month.
The number in the listicles is the peak, not the present
Fee take is the cleanest public signal for a trading bot, because it is on-chain and it moves with real usage. It also decays fast, which is exactly why stale numbers survive: an article written in the peak month reads fine on the day it is published and is wrong six months later. Nobody goes back and edits it.
Every figure on this page is regenerated from DefiLlama's public API and stamped with the date it was pulled. If it is old, the date on it will say so.

Ranked by live 30-day fee take, these are the biggest tools in the same category right now. This measures where money is moving, nothing more. We have not tested any of them for you, and a bot being large is not a claim that using it is profitable.

Why do articles say Maestro does far more volume than this?
Almost always because the figure being quoted is a peak figure. Maestro's best 30-day stretch collected $11.5M in fees and ended 2025-02-16. A number like that is correct on the day it is written and stays in circulation long after. The trailing 30 days collected $1.97M. If a figure you have read does not carry a date, assume it is the first number and not the second.
