Introduction to Honey Badger
The X1 blockchain trading bot with instant swaps, sniping, copy trading, automations, AI assistance, and a full web dashboard
Honey Badger Trading Bot
Honey Badger is the flagship X1 trading platform. It combines a Telegram bot, a web dashboard, and an AI assistant into a single non-custodial trading suite. You can execute one-tap swaps, snipe new launches, run set-and-forget automations, copy other wallets, and ask a natural-language assistant about your portfolio and the wider market.
What you get
Instant Swaps
Buy and sell tokens through Telegram or the dashboard with one click. Optimistic UI updates as soon as the transaction is submitted.
Auto Sniper
Rule-based sniping of new pools and pump.fun / launchpad launches, with candidate lists and anti-rug guards.
Copy Trading
Mirror activity from tracked wallets in real time. Wallet-scoped, honeypot-filtered, size-capped.
Automations
TWAP, Grid, DCA, TP-Ladder, and Martingale strategies you can run on any position.
Forti AI Assistant
A 51-tool trader-scoped assistant that answers portfolio and market questions in natural language.
Advanced Charts
TradingView Advanced Charts with a KLineChartPro fallback, MEV sandwich flags, and Smart Money overlays.

Two ways to trade
Honey Badger meets you where you are:
- Telegram — Everything the bot can do can be driven from a Telegram chat. This is the fastest way to react on mobile and is the interface most users start on.
- Web dashboard — The full experience: portfolio overview, TradingView charts, automations builder, Forti AI panel, hardware-wallet signing, and the token-intel matrix.
The two interfaces share the same wallets and the same order/automation state. A limit order set in Telegram is visible on the dashboard, and vice versa.
Why Honey Badger?
- Non-custodial. You always control your private keys. Hardware-wallet signing (Ledger over WebHID, Keystone over QR/UR) is available for large positions.
- Fast. Buy submit-to-confirm is around 1.7 seconds end-to-end after the WP-4832 latency fix; the UI updates optimistically the moment a transaction is signed.
- Safe by default. Anti-rug UX, honeypot checks, and a settlement-atomic single-tx fee+trade path (Sub-EPIC C) reduce the "stuck in a bad position" failure modes that plague other bots.
- AI-native. The Forti assistant is trader-scoped: it can read your portfolio, your recent trades, and current market state, and answers plainly instead of dumping raw data.
