A Telegram bot that automates crypto buy and sell orders, with an admin dashboard
Overview
Turn a manual, chat-based crypto trading process (customer messages an admin, agrees a rate, sends payment, waits for a transfer) into a guided Telegram bot.
The problem
Handling crypto trades by chat is slow and error-prone on both sides: rates go out of date mid-conversation, payment proof gets lost in messages, and payouts are tracked from memory.
What I built
A Telegram bot with guided buy and sell conversations at admin-set rates, backed by an API and database, an admin dashboard for rates, transactions and automation rules, and integrations with Mono (Nigerian bank account verification) and Tron (on-chain transfers) to automate payouts and deposit checks.
My role
Solo: built the bot conversations and admin notifications, the shared database package, the admin dashboard (rates, transactions, automation history, analytics), and the Mono and Tron integrations.
Technical challenges
Keeping the Telegram bot, the API and the admin dashboard in step through one shared database without tying them too closely together, and making automation rules transparent about why an automatic payout did or didn't happen.
Current status
In progress. The bot, dashboard and banking and blockchain integrations are built and deployed for each client; some features are still being refined.
What it does
- Guided Telegram buy and sell conversations with live rates
- Admin notifications and one-tap transaction actions inside Telegram
- Admin dashboard for rates, transactions and automation history, with every automatic send or verification logged
- Mono integration for bank account verification
- Tron integration for on-chain transfers
- Multi-client setup: a second deployment serves a different client by changing configuration, with no code changes
