Arc sniper bots: Maestro vs Bloom

Why trade Arc with a sniper bot

Arc is Circle's Layer 1, it pays gas in USDC, and its public mainnet went live on 16 September 2026. New Arc memecoins move hardest in the first minutes after liquidity lands, and an Arc sniper bot watches for that moment and buys for you instead of you refreshing a block explorer.

Two Telegram bots already trade Arc: Maestro and Bloom. Both route through Uniswap V2, V3 and V4, both offer copy trading and limit orders, and both charge 1% per trade. Note that "Arc" here is Circle's chain, not the Arc Raiders game.

Live Arc launchpads, including DYOR Fun

Before picking a bot, know which Arc launchpads are actually live: as of September 2026, DYOR Fun is the one with a documented production deployment.

DYOR Fun on Arc pairs every token with native USDC, deploys immutable ERC-20 contracts, and locks liquidity permanently once a token graduates into Uniswap V3. Its V3 documentation covers the mechanics.

The Arc Launchpads Status Tracker lists ARCLaunch, AstraPump, Orixa, TrustSwap Launchpad and uarc.me as announced or still on testnet, not confirmed live. Treat them as names to watch, not venues for real capital yet.

DYOR Fun's Arc setup has no launch restriction window: every new pool faces full competition from the first block, with no cooldown that slows the other snipers down.

Maestro for sniping on Arc

Maestro trades Arc through Uniswap V2, V3 and V4 plus DYOR Swap, DYOR Pump and DYOR V3, and it also handles Virtuals tokens on Arc. Arc sits in the same chat as Maestro's 14 other chains, so an Arc snipe and an Ethereum or Solana position share one interface.

• 🎯 Auto-Sniping: watches the mempool and fires a Block 0 style buy the moment Arc liquidity appears.
• 🛡️ Anti-Rug: designed to detect malicious mempool transactions, tax hikes and blacklist functions and to sell before they execute; no protection catches every rug, so token checks still matter.
• 👥 Copy trading: mirror up to 3 wallets for free, with a Track Only mode to watch a wallet before funding it.
• 🔄 DYOR routing: direct access to DYOR Swap, DYOR Pump and DYOR V3, Arc's own launch stack.
• 💰 Cashback: up to 30% of fees back through the /cashback command.

Bloom for sniping on Arc

Bloom added Arc to its EVM bot, rebuilt on a v2.0 architecture for sub-millisecond detection, next to Ethereum, BSC, Base, HyperEVM, Robinhood Chain and Ink. It uses the same Uniswap V2, V3 and V4 routing as Maestro; the difference is in how it finds tokens.

• ⚡ Detection speed: the v2.0 engine averages about 0.15 seconds per snipe on Bloom's best-performing chains.
• 👥 Copy trading with a Max Dev Holdings filter: mirror a wallet's Arc buys but skip any token where the developer holds too much supply.
• 😴 AFK Mode: trades 24/7 while you're offline, triggered by X signals or Telegram alpha groups.
• 🐦 X scraper with OCR: picks contract addresses out of tweets, replies and screenshots.
• 🔷 Uniswap routing: direct access to Arc's main liquidity through Bloom EVM 2.0.

Maestro vs Bloom on Arc

Same DEXes, same 1% fee: pick on chain breadth and protection (Maestro) or on discovery automation (Bloom). Maestro pairs its 15 chains with patented Anti-Rug and 30% cashback; Bloom leans on detection speed, AFK Mode and X signals.

• Pick Maestro if you trade several chains and want rug detection running on each Arc buy.
• Pick Bloom if you want the bot to find and buy Arc tokens from X while you're away.

Trading strategies for a young chain like Arc

Speed won't carry a strategy through Arc's first months; detection, filters and a planned exit will.

• 🎯 Snipe with a liquidity floor: set a minimum pool size so the bot skips thin pools you can't exit.
• 👥 Copy wallets with a record: check a wallet's on-chain history before mirroring it, and size your copy independently.
• 📈 DCA into dips with limit orders: split entries over several prices instead of one fill.
• 🔄 Track DYOR Fun graduations: a token moving from its bonding curve into locked Uniswap V3 liquidity is a clear event to alert on.
• 🛑 Set TP and SL before the snipe: decide take profit and stop loss before you hold the bag, not after.

Copy trading on Arc with fixed sizing

An Arc copy trade is three settings: the wallet, your stake, and the bot mirrors its buys and sells. Maestro and Bloom both do it on Arc, and for traders who don't want to hunt every new token it often beats pure sniping.

The limit: you copy the wallet's decisions, not its information. A wallet that bought early may have known the deployer, sat in a private group, or traded a bankroll 100 times yours.

Use a fixed position size rather than a proportional one. A wallet running $10,000 positions and one running $100 positions play different games, and a fixed size keeps your risk measurable whichever you follow.

How to fund a wallet and trade on Arc

Seven steps from Telegram to your first Arc trade; on Arc, gas is paid in USDC.

1. Pick a bot. Maestro for chain coverage and Anti-Rug, Bloom for AFK automation and X signals.
2. Start it in Telegram. Open @MaestroSniperBot or Bloom EVM and tap Start.
3. Create or import a wallet. Both bots generate a non-custodial wallet with an encrypted key on first launch.
4. Fund it with USDC. Send USDC on Arc to the bot wallet: trading capital plus a small gas buffer.
5. Set slippage and filters. Slippage, priority fee, Anti-Rug and dev-holdings filters go in before the first trade; on a young chain this matters more than speed.
6. Trade. Paste a contract address to snipe, add a wallet to copy, or place a limit order; routing through Uniswap is automatic.
7. Withdraw when you want. No lockup and no withdrawal fee beyond network gas.

Checks before you automate a buy on Arc

Arc launched with institutional validators such as BlackRock and Visa, and that says nothing about a given memecoin's contract. The chain's infrastructure and a token's code are separate risks; judge them separately.

With no launch restriction window on DYOR Fun, a bot set to auto-buy every new pair competes in block one against every other bot doing the same.

Before you switch on auto-buy:

• check the developer allocation;
• confirm liquidity is actually locked;
• cap the maximum position size per token.

None of this removes the risk; it stops one bad contract from taking an outsized share of your capital. For the full picture across chains, see our roundup of Telegram sniper bots.
