Telegram is where crypto traders already are, so several bots now offer hyperliquid copy trading in the chat. They are not equivalent. This page lists what to check, then places hypercopy against the questions people ask about the others. We describe other bots only from their public material at the time of writing and link to it; verify before you sign anything.
the six questions
- What does it hold? An agent key that cannot withdraw (non-custodial), or a wallet it controls (custodial)? Some bots create a wallet whose private key sits on their server. That is custody, whatever the marketing says.
- What does it charge? A builder fee per order (visible on-chain in your fills), a profit share, a subscription, or a spread on top of the price?
- Who can you copy? A curated list, or the whole leaderboard? Curated lists are easier; the whole leaderboard is where the traders nobody has marketed yet are.
- How is a copy sized? A multiplier of the trader's size, a fixed amount, or a share with a cap? Can you set a stop-loss on your side?
- How does it exit? Reduce-only exits, so a bug cannot flip you? Reconciliation when it misses a close?
- What happens when you stop? Are your positions still yours, in your own account, closable by you?
hypercopy's answers
| question | hypercopy |
|---|---|
| holds | an agent key per user, 179 days, encrypted, never a seed or wallet key. Your own wallet through walletconnect, or an embedded wallet under your telegram login |
| charges | 0.05% builder fee per perps order, entries and exits; on spot, per sale. Up to 50% off through referrals. No subscription, no profit share |
| who | hyperliquid traders filtered to accounts ≥ $10k that trade like humans (no market makers, no vaults), in one list sorted by return per day held, with filters by profile and effective leverage. Any name or address by search. Perps and spot |
| sizing | pro rata of your capital (default, at the trader's real leverage), fixed $ per trade, or % per trade with a max; margin per copy (isolated, like the trader, or cross); stop-loss 1 to 95% of margin, take-profit in up to 3 steps (1 to 1000%) with a stop at entry, per copy |
| exits | reduce-only always; fills coalesced; ioc at mid ±1%; reconciliation every minute closes what the trader no longer holds |
| when you stop | positions are in your account under your address; pause, stop or close from the chat, or revoke the agent on hyperliquid |
the other bots people ask about
Bots with a curated set of "smart traders" and a size multiplier (0.5× to 5× of the trader, for instance). Simple, and fine for traders whose size matches yours. A multiplier has no cap: a trader's one-off big bet becomes your big bet. Check the custody model: mini-app bots that create a wallet for you may or may not hold its key.
Bots that bundle copy trading with dca, delta-neutral vaults and quant strategies. More products, more surface. Ask the six questions per product; a non-custodial copier next to a custodial vault is common.
Sniper and spot bots that added hyperliquid perps. Usually built around speed on memecoins and a fee on volume. Check whether their perps copy uses an agent key or a wallet they hold, and what the fee on volume is compared with a 0.05% builder fee.
Open-source copiers on github. Free, and you hold everything. You also run everything: a server near hyperliquid, websocket reconnection, fill coalescing, minimums, reduce-only logic, reconciliation, alerting. See hypercopy vs building your own bot.
the one thing to do before trusting any of them
Activate with a small balance, let one copied fill happen, and look at it on hyperliquid under your own address. You should see the order, the fee including the builder fee, and the agent on your api page. If a bot cannot show you that, it is not doing what it says.
faq
is hypercopy the cheapest telegram bot for hyperliquid?
We do not know every bot's current fee. 0.05% per order with no other charge is at or below the usual builder-fee rate among hyperliquid front-ends; check others' fee pages.
can two bots run on the same hyperliquid account?
Yes, with separate named agents. Avoid copying the same trader with both.
why does hypercopy only do hyperliquid?
Because doing one venue's copy trading well (detection, coalescing, exits, reconciliation) is a full-time job. On hyperliquid it copies both perps and spot, in two paths of the same bot.
copy hyperliquid's best, from telegram.
pick a trader, set your size. hypercopy trades with a key that can never withdraw, and you can stop at any time.
