FactCryptohopperGunbot
PricingSnapshotExplorer $29/mo, Adventurer $69/mo, Hero $129/mo at monthly billing; annual billing is 17% off ($24.16 / $57.50 / $107.50 a month, billed yearly). There is no free tier — only a 3-day Explorer trial that starts at sign-up. Copy Bot is priced separately, $9.99 to $99.99/mo, and marketplace strategies are extra. Re-read 2026-09-09: every tier had risen (Explorer 19 → 29, Adventurer 49 → 69, Hero 99 → 129), the annual discount was 17% and not the ~30% recorded, and the record’s claim of a paper-trading free tier was wrong — paper trading sits inside the paid Explorer package.One-time licence with contradictory official pricing. The plans page lists Standard €199, Pro €299 and DeFi €499 under ‘Summer deals’ at €44.25, €111.75 and €186.75 lifetime (about 78%, 63% and 63% off), with no stated end date. The support FAQ quotes $599 / $899 / $1,499 lifetime plus Gunbot Unlimited at $29/month, and the Unlimited preview page prices the same subscription at €29 per month. Lifetime licences link to a self-custodied, non-exchange ERC-20 wallet address and its GUNTHY token count; subscription users skip the wallet step. No defensible single price exists; reconcile with support before buying. Re-read 14 September 2026.
