People ask about the cost of DexScreener trending more than almost anything else. The honest answer has two parts: the price of the placement, and everything you may need to spend so your token qualifies for it.
The placement price
These are the Mentat Booster prices for a Top 1–10 DexScreener placement, ordered in Telegram:
| Chain | Duration | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Solana | 12 hours | $1,100 |
| Solana | 24 hours | $1,450 |
| BNB Chain, Ethereum, Base | 24 hours | $950 |
| Robinhood Chain and other chains | 24 hours | $950 |
You pay in SOL, BNB or ETH, whichever chain your token is on. The exact price for your token is shown in the bot before you pay. The full list for every platform is on the pricing page, and the details of the product are on the DexScreener trending page.
The costs people forget
A placement has requirements, and meeting them can cost more than people expect.
- Volume. Solana tokens need $300K of 24-hour volume. BNB Chain and Ethereum need $150K and Robinhood Chain needs $100K. If your token is below that, you either wait or build volume. A volume bot costs network and DEX fees on each trade, and you can read the details in how much a volume bot costs.
- Liquidity or market cap. Solana needs a market cap of $80K, Robinhood Chain $40K, and BNB Chain and Ethereum need $30K of liquidity.
- Profile. A logo, links and a description cost nothing but time, and the placement expects your token info to be updated.
- Social proof. A page with a handful of reactions looks less abandoned than one with none. The first 50 are free, and 500 cost $10.
What you are really buying
You are buying attention for 12 or 24 hours. You are not buying a price. Some of that attention turns into buyers, some into holders and some into nothing at all. A token with a clear story, a complete profile and a community that welcomes newcomers converts far more of it than a token with none of those.
When it is worth it
A placement tends to make sense when:
- The token already clears the requirements comfortably.
- You have a profile, links and a community group ready.
- You can keep volume up for the whole placement, so the token does not fall out of the requirements halfway through.
- You treat the cost as marketing spend you can afford to lose.
It rarely makes sense when the token barely qualifies, because a small dip can end the placement early, and a removal is not refundable.
A cheaper way to start
If $950 or more is too much for now, you do not need to skip promotion. A free X post, a free buy bot for your group and the free 50 reactions cost nothing, and a GeckoTerminal placement starts at $150. Build the basics first and save the placement for when the token can use it. See how to promote a token for free.

Frequently asked questions
How much does DexScreener trending cost?
On Solana it costs $1,100 for 12 hours or $1,450 for 24 hours. On BNB Chain, Ethereum, Base, Robinhood Chain and other chains it costs $950 for 24 hours.
Is the cost only the placement price?
No. Your token must meet the platform's requirements, so you may also spend on volume, liquidity and a complete profile. If you add reactions and a volume session, budget for those too.
Is a trending placement worth it?
It depends on the token. It is worth considering when the token already meets the requirements, has a clear story and has a community ready for the extra attention. It is a poor use of money for a token that barely qualifies.
Can I pay in a different coin than my token's chain?
Yes. With Mentat Booster you can pay in SOL, BNB or ETH whichever chain your token is on.
