Bot Wallets

Each live bot has its own wallet, separate from your main wallet. It is created when the bot goes live, and Privy holds its key, as it does for your other Trenchers wallets. You let Trenchers sign trades from it, so the bot can act the moment a token passes its gates.

That is also why a bot wallet should only hold SOL you are willing to risk.

Fund and withdraw

1. Open the wallet

   Press Fund wallet on the bot's Fleet card, or Fund / Withdraw on its dashboard.

2. Fund

   On Fund, pick your Main, Managed or Imported wallet as the source, enter an amount and press Add balance.

3. Withdraw

   On Withdraw, SOL goes back to your main wallet only. Max takes everything.

The first deposit into an empty bot wallet must cover Solana's rent-exempt minimum, about 0.0009 SOL.

Bot wallets also appear under Bot wallets on the Portfolio Wallets tab. You cannot trade from them by hand.

When SOL runs low

• If the wallet cannot cover a full buy, the bot stays active but stops buying, and you get a Buys paused notification. Its sells keep running.
• A bot that holds nothing then sleeps, showing Sleeping · add SOL to wake. It wakes by itself once you add enough for a buy.
• Every live trade pays network fees, including about 0.0002 SOL to land it. A bot that cannot pay to sell shows Sleeping · add SOL to sell, so always leave some SOL in the wallet. See Bot Costs.

A Claim button on the wallet closes empty token accounts and returns their rent.

Archiving sweeps it back

Archiving a live bot sends its wallet's SOL back to your main wallet. It is refused while the bot still holds open positions, with the message Close positions first. If the transfer gets stuck, the wallet shows Retry transfer.
