Getting started

Three steps to your first trade — create your account, add funds, and get ready to trade.

Three steps and you're in the game: create your account → add funds → move funds to trading.

1. Create your account

1. Open a DM with @Layer3TradeBot.

2. Send /start.

3. The bot spins up a wallet for you on the spot — nothing to write down.

You'll land on the main menu: 🏆 Compete · 💰 Wallet · ⚙️ Settings · ❓ Help.

Your keys, your funds. The wallet is managed for convenience, but it's yours. Export the private key anytime under Wallet → More → Security, and revoke the bot's trading access with /disable_trading.

2. Add funds

Buy-ins and trades run on USDC (Arbitrum One), held in your bot wallet. Two ways to fill it:

• Receive USDC — open 💰 Wallet, copy your address, and send USDC (Arbitrum One) from any exchange or wallet.

• Buy with card or bank — Wallet → Add funds opens a secure checkout.

Buying with card or bank isn't available in every region.

3. Move funds to trading

Your bot wallet pays buy-ins. Your trading balance on Hyperliquid is what you trade with. Before a competition, move some over:

Wallet → Move money → Move to trading, then enter an amount. Most people start with $25–$50.

Moving funds gets your capital ready — it does not enter you into a competition. You join a competition separately by tapping Join on a group's competition card.

You're ready
