Getting started

Everything from opening the bot to your first buy. Five minutes end to end.

What Swarm Sting is

A trading bot that lives in Telegram. It holds a wallet for you so a trade is one tap, works across 21 chains, and attaches SWARM's caller ranking to every token so you can see who called it and what their record is before you buy.

Before you start

  • A Telegram account.
  • Funds on a supported chain — you will send them to a wallet the bot creates for you.
  • Five minutes. There is no signup form, no email, no KYC.

Set up

Step 1

Open the bot

Message @swarmstingbot on Telegram and send /start.

You get the cockpit — one menu that everything hangs off. Reopen it any time with /cockpit or /menu. If you ever get lost, those two commands are the way home.

Step 2

Look around the cockpit

The panes you will actually use:

  • 👛 Wallet & Funds — balances, deposit address, withdrawals.
  • ⚙️ Trade settings — buy sizes, slippage, TP/SL defaults.
  • 🐝 Copy-Trade dashboard — mirror other traders.
  • 🎯 Active orders — every pending limit, take-profit and stop-loss.
Step 3

Fund the wallet

Tap 👛 Wallet & Funds → 👛 Just show deposit address and send the chain's native coin to it. Full detail in Wallet & funding.

Step 4

Set your buy sizes

⚙️ Trade settings → 💰 Buy amounts (per chain). Do this before your first trade — these amounts are what every one-tap button and every automation will spend.

Step 5

Buy something

Paste a contract address into the chat. The bot resolves it, runs safety checks and replies with a token card. Tap an amount to buy. That is the whole loop — see Buying.

The wallet is custodial. The bot holds the keys so trades can fire instantly. Fund it with what you intend to trade, withdraw what you are not using, and never treat it as storage.
