Axiom vs GMGN: fees, copy trading and wallet tracking¶
Axiom vs GMGN: fees, keys, Pulse vs Trenches, wallet tracking and copy trading, side by side and sourced, with clusterz as a third column to compare.
Axiom and GMGN are two of the biggest memecoin platforms around, and they are built differently.
Axiom is a web terminal with perps and yield next to spot. GMGN is web, phone apps, Telegram bots and an API, with copy trading and a big wallet tracker.
We build clusterz, so we are not neutral. We put ourselves in a third column, and every fact about Axiom and GMGN comes from their own docs or a named source, with the date.
Axiom, GMGN and nine more apps in one table: the best memecoin trading apps, compared.

"Not in their docs" means we read their docs and found nothing on it. That does not prove they lack it.
Axiom vs GMGN fees¶
Both start at about 1%. Axiom's referral page says its fee is "starting at 1%" (7 September 2026), and its fees page (May 2025) drops the net fee with volume: 0.95% at the first tier, Wood, down to 0.75% at the top tier, Champion, with 0.05% to 0.25% of the trade back in SOL.
Referred users pay 10% less. GMGN lists 1% per transaction on its fees page (August 2025) and on its copy trade page (8 January 2026).

Where Axiom is ahead of GMGN¶
- Keys you can take with you. Axiom shows a recovery phrase at sign-up and in settings. GMGN's Telegram wallet page says key export is "prohibited", though its App Store listing says "self-custodial wallets".
- Fees that fall with volume, plus cashback in SOL. GMGN's docs show a flat 1% and no trader cashback.
- Perps and yield. Hyperliquid perps up to 50x and yield sit next to spot. GMGN's site menu now shows Perpetual too (observed 8 November 2026).
- Pulse filters are documented: age, top 10 %, dev %, snipers %, insiders %, bundle %, holders, pro traders, liquidity, volume, market cap, txns, buys and sells. GMGN's Trenches filter names are not in its docs.
- Size. $26.36M in fees over 30 days on DefiLlama, against $12.36M for GMGN (to 31 October 2026).
Where GMGN is ahead of Axiom¶
- Copy trading. GMGN documents it on Solana: up to 10 tasks, with TP/SL and filters. Axiom's docs do not.
- Bring your own list. Wallet Tracker imports up to 2,000 addresses at once, with Smart Money and KOL labels, a "Suspected Insider" label on a token's holders, and Wallet Radar for holders shared across up to 10 tokens. Axiom's docs cover one address at a time.
- Apps, bots and an API. Native iOS and Android apps, a Telegram bot per chain and an API. Axiom has no App Store app.
- Trailing TP and SL. GMGN documents them. Spot TP/SL is not in Axiom's docs.
Where clusterz is different¶
Alts fire as one signal. Axiom tracks one address at a time and GMGN tracks the addresses you import. clusterz links a trader's alt wallets into a cluster, from SOL sent between them, a shared funder or trading together.
When enough alts from one cluster, usually 3, each buy the same token for $10 or more within 30 minutes, one cluster buy fires on the Map. See wallet clusters.
Copies cost 0.2%. GMGN's copy trade page lists 1% per transaction.
Copy Trade on clusterz copies a trader, a list, a cluster or a dev at 0.2%, and 25% of every fee comes back in the same transaction: 0.75% net on your own trades, 0.15% net on copies. See Fees.
Play money first. Neither Axiom nor GMGN documents a play-money mode. Practice gives every account 1,000 USD worth of SOL against the live market, free, reset any time.
What we lack next to both: clusterz is Solana spot only, with no limit orders and no native app. You buy at market and sell at market or by your exits.
Axiom or GMGN: which one fits you¶
You trade size and want perps. Axiom. Its fee drops with volume, and Hyperliquid perps sit in the same terminal.
You want to copy wallets you already know. GMGN. Import your list, up to 2,000 addresses, and copy on Solana. On clusterz the tracked list is ours, but you can paste any address into Copy Trade.

You want to hold your own key. Axiom's docs show a recovery phrase. On GMGN, read its wallet docs first. clusterz lets you export your key any time; see Account and security.
