Cryptohopper vs 3Commas: Which veteran wins?

Both are non-custodial subscription bot platforms running since 2017, and they score nearly tied (Cryptohopper 61/100 vs 3Commas 60/100). The big difference is the ecosystem: Cryptohopper bets on its marketplace (templates / signals / copy trading), 3Commas bets on its strategy designer + TradingView signals. Below we break both down on the same scale.

60/100 · 15+ exchanges · veteran

Cryptohopper · Strengths

  • Marketplace: download pre-configured bot templates, subscribe to signal providers, copy trading — fast for beginners
  • A genuine free tier (Pioneer, 20 open positions) — a lower barrier than 3Commas
  • Claims 1,151,419 users — the largest peer in this review series
  • Explorer from $24.16/mo with a 3-day trial + 2-week refund window
  • No public record of a large-scale API-key breach like 3Commas' 2022 incident

3Commas · Strengths

  • 15+ exchanges (more than Cryptohopper's 11)
  • 4 bot types (DCA / Grid / Signal / Smart Trade) + a strategy designer
  • Direct TradingView signal integration — suited to quants who customize entries/exits
  • 7 UI languages (incl. machine-translated Chinese; Cryptohopper UI is English-only)
  • Lower entry price: Starter from $15/mo (annual), with no marketplace third-party risk layer

Verdict

Want to clone pre-built strategies, subscribe to signals, or copy traders → Cryptohopper's marketplace gets you started faster. Want to build multiple bots off TradingView signals and connect more exchanges → 3Commas fits better. But both have no platform-level live proof and a flat subscription that bites on small capital — if those are your pain points, compare against CoinTech2u before deciding.

FAQ

Which is better for beginners, Cryptohopper or 3Commas?

Cryptohopper's marketplace (downloadable templates + copy trading) and its Pioneer free tier get beginners started faster; 3Commas has a steeper curve with dozens of params per bot. But note: Cryptohopper's copy/signal model outsources decisions to unknown signal providers — its own added risk layer. Neither is truly zero-config.

Which is cheaper, Cryptohopper or 3Commas?

3Commas has the lower entry price (Starter $15/mo annual); Cryptohopper has a genuine free tier (Pioneer $0, but heavily limited — closer to a preview), with paid plans from Explorer $24.16/mo. Both are subscriptions, charged whether you win or lose, so they bite hardest on small capital (≤$3,000).

Are both platforms safe?

Both are non-custodial (funds stay on your exchange, no withdrawal access). Cryptohopper scores 61/100 on our methodology and clears every Auto-Fail; 3Commas scores 60/100 but had a large-scale API-key breach in 2022 (~$22M, with disputed liability). See the Cryptohopper review and 3Commas review.

Is there a pay-on-profit alternative where the platform manages strategy?

Both are flat-subscription, with no platform-level live proof. If you want pay-on-profit pricing (nothing on losing months), a platform that manages strategy for you, and live data you can verify, look at where CoinTech2u sits in the 5-way comparison before deciding.
