CoinGecko Founder’s Take on Telegram Bots
On Thursday afternoon, the founder of CoinGecko, Bobby Ong, took to Twitter to comment on the growing number of Telegram bots. He said they have made trading easier. However, he also highlighted the risks associated with those programs. Ong noted that anyone using the bots had to transfer their crypto assets to third-party wallets or share private keys so that their existing wallets could be linked to the bots. This opens up possibilities of rug pulls and exploits, according to the CoinGecko founder.
For this reason, Ong said he will be using Telegram bots for transactions involving small amounts of funds.
