Today we are excited to release and open source the Mobius Stellar Tip Bot 💸 (MSTB)! The MSTB currently supports Telegram, any Stellar asset, and is one-click Heroku deployable for lightning fast setup and install ⚡️

Get the MSTB source code here on GitHub!

We have added the MSTB to our Telegram channels (English, Chinese, Russian, Korean, and Developers) and funded it with MOBI from the community pool so our community can directly reward people that contribute valuable content.

Features

1. Reply to a message with /tip to send a tip to the writer (no you can’t tip yourself 😂). We’ve set the tip amount to 0.5 MOBI.

2. A tip button appears as a reply to a tipped message that others can click to instantly tip 💸

3. Tipping is limited to once per hour ⏲ if using community funds.

4. Tipping is unlimited if you fund your own tips 🤑 (DM the bot /start to get info on the advanced command /create that allows you to fund your own tips).

5. DM the bot /balance to see how much MOBI you have earned 💰 and /withdraw to withdraw the MOBI!

6. DM the bot /start or /help to get more info!

7. Whitelist support so users can’t arbitrarily add your bot to their own private groups.

Feature Request — 300,000 MOBI Bounty Contest!

We want WeChat, KakaoTalk, Line, and Reddit support so we can add the MSTB to our channels on those platforms!

We are offering up to 75,000 MOBI to the developer that implements the best (as judged by our development team) support for each platform!

We may implement some of these ourselves so if you are interested in claiming one of the bounties please email developers@mobius.network so we can coordinate! We would like to see submissions by July 1, 2018 (we estimate each platform should take 1–2 weeks to implement).

In judging submissions we will look at many things including code quality (style, comments, etc) and full test suite support.
