In just 18 months, Trojan on Solana has gone from an experimental Telegram bot to one of the most widely used trading tools in crypto. This week, the platform announced it has crossed $25 billion in total trading volume and now serves over 2 million users, marking a major milestone for both the product and the Solana ecosystem at large.
What started as a simple tool for executing trades inside Telegram has quickly become a full-blown trading terminal, with features that rival traditional exchanges — all embedded in the same app users already use to chat and share memes.
Trojan now ranks as the 21st highest revenue-generating app across all blockchains, according to DeFiLlama, and it’s not hard to see why. With built-in wallet tracking, sub-millisecond order execution, and copy trading — all designed for the ultra-volatile world of meme coins — Trojan has found a sweet spot: speed, simplicity, and serious firepower.
“Surpassing $25 billion in volume and 2 million users isn’t just a milestone — it’s proof that people want fast, accessible trading that actually works in real time,” a spokesperson for Trojan told me. “And they want it where they’re already spending their time — in Telegram.”
The appeal of Trojan is twofold. First, it leverages Solana’s speed and low fees, which make high-frequency trading actually feasible for retail users. Second, it merges trading with community. Users can chat, share trades, follow wallets, and place orders all within a single Telegram thread. It’s not just a bot — it’s a social trading environment.
At any given time, more than 60,000 users are active daily, and over 155 million trades have been executed since launch. And unlike many DeFi tools that cater to crypto-native users, Trojan’s interface is surprisingly friendly — even for newcomers. Features like Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA), limit orders with stop-loss and trailing stop, and one-tap copy trading have helped the platform broaden its appeal beyond hardcore degens.
Trojan’s rise also signals something bigger happening in crypto: the migration of serious trading tools into everyday platforms. Much like how Robinhood brought equities into a social app experience, Trojan is bringing onchain trading into group chats — with speed and precision that rival centralized exchanges.
Of course, the big question is whether this growth can be sustained. The Telegram bot space is heating up fast, and new entrants are popping up weekly. But Trojan’s head start — and its obsessive focus on speed, reliability, and user experience — might be enough to keep it in pole position.
For now, Trojan isn’t just riding Solana’s growth wave. It’s helping shape it.
