In this article, we will look at what Banana Gun is, how it works, its business model (tokenomics), and the details of Banana Gun on Binance HODLer airdrops.

What is Banana Gun?

Banana Gun is a Telegram bot that facilitates automated and manual trading on the Ethereum network and allows users to buy and sell manually tokens on the Solana network. It aims to become the reference tool for anticipating future token launches and securely purchasing tokens already in circulation.

How Banana Gun Works

Account creation

To start using Banana Gun, follow these steps:

  1. Sign up for Telegram: join the Banana Gun bot channel and create your account.

  2. Create or import a wallet: Follow the instructions to create a new crypto wallet or import an existing one.

  3. Fund your wallet: Make sure your wallet contains at least 0.1 ETH or an equivalent amount of other supported cryptocurrencies.

  4. Verification: Verify your portfolio through the sales bot.

Automated trading

Now you can use the auto-spotting feature to automatically execute trades the moment a new token is launched. Here's how to do it:

  1. Configure tracking settings: Set settings for automatic tracking, including token address, tracking type, maximum investment amount per wallet, and number of wallets to use for location.

  1. Monitoring and execution: The bot continuously monitors the blockchain for the launch of the specified token. Once detected, it automatically executes the trade.

Trading manuel

In addition to automated scouting, you can buy and sell tokens manually. Here's a quick guide to help you get started:

  1. Enter trading parameters: specify the token you want to trade and the amount you want to buy or sell.

  1. Execute the trade: Use the Telegram bot to execute the trade. It provides real-time feedback and ensures rapid execution based on defined parameters.

Security Features

According to Banana Gun documentation, at least three key safety features are in place:

  1. Resistance to VME. Banana Gun offers VME-resistant swaps, protecting users from various exploits, such as sandwich attacks and frontrunning (antetransaction).

  2. Protection against reorganization. Banana Gun provides protection against block reorganization (reorg) attacks, which can occur when the transaction history of a blockchain is modified.

  3. Protection against honeypot. Banana Gun has built-in simulations that protect users from scam tokens from the start. If a successful trade cannot be simulated, the transaction will not be completed.
