- DM takes the address. In DM,
/buyand/caaccept a full contract address. - Addresses are always full. Bobby never shortens a contract address. If it is shown, it is shown whole.
Only speaks when it matters
Members read Bobby because Bobby only speaks when it matters. We keep it that way.
You cannot tune the methodology. You cannot weight a single source. You cannot turn detection into a firehose. Those are not settings. The internal joke is twelve herbs and spices.
Permissions Bobby needs
| Permission | Required? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Send messages | Required | Bobby needs to be able to ping. |
| Pin messages | Optional | For the welcome pin and major convergence alerts. |
| Delete | Never asked for | Bobby does not moderate. |
| Admin | Required | Bobby needs admin to read group activity and post alerts. He never moderates members or deletes content. |
Bobby is admin permissioned, not a moderator. The admin role is the floor Telegram requires for Bobby to do his job.
