Description

As someone putting credits in to tip right away, it is confusing to know at what point they can be tipped.

It could be cool if the bot DM'ed/tweeted something like:

  • "Your deposit has been noticed by our bot. It will be spendable in approx 15 min (after 6 block confirmations)."
  • "Your deposit has been confirmed. Tip freely!"

Research direction

Start by tracing how the bot detects deposits and determines when six block confirmations have arrived, then find the existing path for sending direct messages or tweets. Done means users receive a notice that a deposit is pending and a second notice when it becomes spendable, with timing and confirmation details matching the issue.
