Telegram crypto group bots compared
Five bots trading groups add to read the tokens pasted in chat. Each paragraph says what the bot leads with, taken from its own docs and site. They are listed in no order of rank.
Phanes
A call tracker and charting bot for Telegram and Discord. It leads with first-caller tracking, a points leaderboard with hit rate, and charts with 25 overlays across crypto, stocks, FX and prediction markets. Its site claims more than 230,000 groups, 19 languages and more than 50 chains.
Rick
A research bot for Telegram and Discord. It leads with a dense scan (market rows, holders, warnings and the first scanner) and with AI tools that summarize chats and links and answer questions. Rick Hub is a web feed of scans across groups.
TokenScan
A Telegram scanner with a long command list: scans, charts, holder and deployer checks, market data, and group leaderboards with first caller and PnL cards. Its docs list 19 networks. Buy alerts and group moderation come from its sister bot Guardian.
Soul Scanner
A Solana contract scanner for Telegram. It leads with safety flags (mint authority, LP status, holder concentration, deployer holdings) and a map of the first 20 buyers by wallet type. The same team runs Soul Sniper for trading and Soul Buy Bot.
Coral
A token grading bot for Telegram and Discord. It leads with the Coral Score, a 0 to 100 grade with its reasons, on every pasted contract, plus a safety read on Solana, Base and Ethereum, the first caller, a count of repeat pasters and buy alerts for your own token. It is newer and in far fewer groups than the others here.
How to pick
- If your group lives on charts, start with Phanes.
- If you want AI summaries of the chat and the links in it, look at Rick.
- If you want the longest command menu, TokenScan has it, and its docs list 19 networks.
- If you trade Solana only and want the first buyers mapped on each scan, look at Soul Scanner.
- If you want a grade per contract with the reasons, EVM safety reads and buy alerts in one bot, add Coral.
Two of these can run in the same group. Each answers pastes on its own.
Add Coral to your group
- 1
Tap Add to Telegram below. In the chat with @x_coral_bot that opens, tap add me to a group and pick your group.
- 2
If Coral does not react to cashtags, make it a group admin. Telegram hides normal messages from bots that are not admins.
- 3
On Discord, use Add to Discord. You need Manage Server on that server.
- 4
Paste a ticker or contract address in the chat, and Coral replies with a graded card.
