  1. Open the SwissWhaleBot on Telegram and link your account with /start.
  2. Pick what to watch: a specific address (/track address <addr>), an exchange inflow over a threshold (/track inflow <exchange> <btc>), or a dormant-wakeup (/track dormant <years>).
  3. Confirm with /mytracks — you will see all your active rules. You get up to 10. The 60-minute cooldown prevents alert-storms.
  4. When the rule fires you get a one-line Telegram message with the TX hash + a deep-link to the full /alerts/<txid> page (Premium-signed URL, full context + chart + on-chain history).
  5. Remove a rule with /untrack <id>. To see global pre-defined alerts (mega whales, dormant wakeups) open the Settings tab on the dashboard.
