Getting alerts on a domain, username or number with @apitonBot

Refreshing a listing page to see whether a name dropped in price gets old fast. @apitonBot can do it for you: add an item to your watchlist and the bot sends a Telegram message when something changes. Here is exactly what it watches and how often.

Step 1: open the item in the bot

Send the bot any of:

• a username — @durov
• an anonymous number — +888 0000 1312
• a domain — foundation.ton
• a wallet or contract address — UQ…, EQ… or raw 0:…

You can also start from apiton.org: every item page has an Open in @apitonBot button that opens the same card, e.g. the +888 0000 1312 page. Username, number, domain and gift pages also have a Watch in @apitonBot button: it opens the card and adds the item to your watchlist in one tap, so you can skip step 2.

Step 2: tap Watch

Every card has a 🔔 Watch button. After you tap it, the button turns into 🔕 Unwatch and the item appears in /watchlist.

What you are notified about

For usernames, numbers, domains, gifts and other NFTs, the bot compares the status, owner, price and last bid on every check and sends:

Change	Message
put on sale	listed for sale at …
auction started	auction started
sale price changed	new price …
new auction bid	new bid … with the previous top bidder
auction ends in under 2 hours	auction ending soon (once)
left the market with a new owner	sold
left the market, same owner	delisted

For a wallet, you get a message for each new transaction whose value is above your threshold (1 💎 by default; change it with /watchmin), and for every NFT or DNS operation regardless of value. Each alert has Open and 🔕 Unwatch buttons.

Note what is not on the list: the bot does not send a separate reminder when a .ton domain is about to expire. To follow expiring names, check the Domains expiring soon hub on apiton.org, or read how expiry works.

How often it checks

Plan	Watched items	Check interval	Wallet alerts per hour
Free	3	every 3 minutes	10
Premium, Builder, Pro	30	every 30 seconds	100

/plan shows your plan and usage; /upgrade lists the paid plans (Telegram Stars or TON). If a free and a paid user watch the same item, both get the faster interval.

Managing the watchlist

• /watchlist — all watched items with their current status and a 🔕 button for each.
• /watchmin 5 — only alert on wallet transactions worth at least 5 💎.
• Unwatch from the card, from any alert, or from /watchlist.

Ideas for what to watch

• A username you want: you will know the moment it is listed for sale.
• A number or username on auction: get each new bid and the "ending soon" warning.
• Your own wallet: incoming transfers and NFT movements, without opening a wallet app.

Start with @apitonBot — watching three items is free.
