Bloom is a Telegram-based trading bot for Solana that has built a reputation for having one of the cleanest, most beginner-friendly interfaces in the space. While most Telegram trading bots cram dozens of features into cramped message layouts, Bloom takes a different approach — a structured, visual interface inside Telegram that makes buying and selling tokens straightforward even if you have never used an on-chain trading bot before.
This guide walks through everything you need to get started with Bloom, from initial setup to advanced features like auto-sell triggers and copy trading.
What Is Bloom
Bloom is a Telegram bot that lets you trade Solana tokens directly from a Telegram chat. You paste a token contract address, tap a button, and the bot executes the swap on-chain through Raydium, Jupiter, or other Solana DEXs. No browser needed, no wallet popups, no manual transaction signing.
The core value of Telegram trading bots is speed and convenience. Instead of opening a DEX website, connecting a wallet, entering amounts, approving transactions, and waiting for confirmations, you do everything in a chat interface with preset buttons. For memecoin trading where seconds can matter, this simplification is the entire point.
Bloom stands out from other Telegram bots primarily through its interface design. Where most bots present walls of text with tiny inline buttons, Bloom uses structured layouts with clear visual hierarchy, making it easier to see your positions, understand what you are about to do, and avoid expensive mistakes.
Getting Started
Finding and Starting the Bot
- Open Telegram and search for the official Bloom bot. Make sure you are using the verified bot — check for the official username and verification badge. Scam bots that impersonate popular trading bots are common on Telegram.
- Tap "Start" to initialize the bot.
- Bloom will walk you through the initial setup process.
Creating a Wallet
When you first start Bloom, it generates a new Solana wallet for you. This happens automatically — the bot creates a keypair and presents you with the wallet address.
Critical step: Back up your private key. Bloom will show you the private key or recovery phrase for your new wallet. Write this down and store it somewhere secure and offline. If you lose access to Telegram or the bot goes down, this key is the only way to recover your funds.
You can also import an existing wallet by providing its private key. However, most traders create a dedicated bot wallet and fund it separately from their main holdings. This limits your exposure — if anything goes wrong with the bot, only the funds in the bot wallet are at risk.
Funding Your Wallet
Copy your Bloom wallet address and send SOL to it from your main wallet (Phantom, Solflare, or any other Solana wallet). You need SOL both for buying tokens and for paying transaction fees.
Start small. Fund the wallet with 0.5 to 2 SOL while you learn the interface. You can always add more later.
Buying Tokens
The buying process in Bloom is designed to be as fast as possible.
Quick Buy
- Paste a contract address: Copy the token's mint address from DexScreener, Birdeye, Twitter, or any other source. Paste it into the Bloom chat.
- Bloom displays token info: The bot shows you the token name, ticker, current price, market cap, liquidity, and other relevant data. Review this before buying.
- Select a buy amount: Bloom presents preset buy buttons (e.g., 0.1 SOL, 0.5 SOL, 1 SOL, 5 SOL) plus a custom amount option. Tap the amount you want to spend.
- Transaction executes: Bloom submits the swap transaction on-chain. You receive a confirmation with the transaction details — tokens received, price paid, and a link to the transaction on the explorer.
The entire process from pasting an address to having tokens in your wallet takes a few seconds under normal network conditions.
Buy Settings
Before buying, you can configure several settings that apply to all purchases:
- Slippage tolerance: How much price movement you are willing to accept between submitting the transaction and it landing on-chain. For liquid tokens, 1% to 5% is standard. For volatile memecoins or tokens with thin liquidity, you may need 10% to 30%.
- Priority fee: The additional SOL paid to validators for faster transaction inclusion. Higher priority fees improve your chances of landing a transaction during congested periods.
- MEV protection: Some bots offer anti-MEV features that route transactions through private pools to avoid sandwich attacks. Check whether Bloom has this enabled and understand what it does.
Auto-Buy
Bloom supports auto-buy functionality where you can set the bot to automatically buy a specified amount of SOL worth of any token you paste. This removes the step of selecting an amount each time, which saves a second or two on each trade — meaningful when you are trying to enter a position quickly.
To enable auto-buy:
- Go to Bloom's settings.
- Set your default buy amount (e.g., 0.5 SOL).
- Enable auto-buy.
- Now when you paste a contract address, Bloom will buy immediately at your preset amount instead of showing you amount options first.
Use auto-buy with caution. The speed advantage comes at the cost of not reviewing token information before buying. Make sure you have already done your research before pasting the address.
Selling Tokens
Manual Sell
To sell a token you hold:
- Open your portfolio or positions view in Bloom.
- Select the token you want to sell.
- Choose a sell percentage — common options are 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100% of your position.
- Confirm and the bot executes the sell.
Bloom shows your current PnL (profit and loss) for each position, making it easy to see which tokens are in profit and by how much before deciding to sell.
Auto-Sell Triggers
Auto-sell is one of the most important features for managing risk. Bloom lets you set conditions that automatically sell a position when triggered:
Take profit: Set a target return (e.g., sell 50% of the position at 2x, sell another 25% at 5x). When the token hits your target price, Bloom sells automatically.
Stop loss: Set a maximum loss threshold (e.g., sell 100% if the position drops 50% from entry). This prevents a bad trade from going to zero while you are not watching.
Trailing stop: A dynamic stop loss that moves up as the price increases. If you set a 30% trailing stop, Bloom will sell if the price drops 30% from the highest point reached after your buy. This lets you ride uptrends while automatically locking in some of the gains.
Setting up auto-sell triggers on every position is strongly recommended, especially for memecoin trading where prices can drop 80% or more in minutes. Even a simple stop loss at -50% prevents your worst losses.
Limit Orders
Beyond instant market buys and sells, Bloom supports limit orders:
- Buy limit: Set a price at which you want to buy a token. If the token drops to your target price, the order executes automatically.
- Sell limit: Set a price at which you want to sell. Same as a take-profit trigger but structured as a pending order.
Limit orders are useful when you want to enter a token at a lower price than the current market or when you have a specific exit price in mind. They run on Bloom's infrastructure — the bot monitors the price and executes when your conditions are met.
Keep in mind that limit orders depend on Bloom's servers being operational and monitoring prices accurately. They are not on-chain limit orders like those offered by Jupiter. If Bloom experiences downtime, your limit orders will not execute.
