Creating communication channels for your Bitcoin community
Adding a Multi-Function Bot to Your Telegram Group
Another option for configuring and securing your Telegram group or supergroup is to add a multi-function bot. This allows you to significantly expand your group's features and moderation capabilities.
Using the bot @GroupHelpBot, the most useful options are:
- A rules command (/rules) to display your community guidelines;
- Anti-spam protection to filter suspicious messages and accounts;
- Customizable automatic welcome messages for new members (with optional auto-delete after a few minutes)
- Anti-flood protection to prevent message spam
- An @administrator command for quickly reaching group admins
- Blocking rules for unwanted content
- A group link command (/link)
- Command permission management
- Automatic deletion of specific message types
- Bot blocking and entry/exit blocking to keep your group secure
- List your community's social networks (/networks)
- And much more...
Countless additional features are available.
Pro tip: Don't over-restrict conversation.
