Funding Your Wallet
After setting up your wallet, you need to deposit SOL to start trading.
Getting your wallet address
1. Open FatCat Bot in Telegram and connect or create your wallet.
2. Tap Privy Wallet Address on the main menu.
3. Copy your Solana wallet address.
This is the address you will send SOL to.
Depositing SOL
Send SOL to your FatCat wallet address from any source:
From a centralized exchange: Withdraw SOL from Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, or any exchange that supports Solana withdrawals. Paste your FatCat wallet address as the withdrawal destination.
From another Solana wallet: If you have SOL in Solflare, Backpack, or any other Solana wallet, send it to your FatCat wallet address.
From a friend: Have them send SOL directly to your wallet address.
Always double-check the address before sending.
Transactions on Solana are irreversible.
FatCat cannot recover funds sent to the wrong address.
Why you need SOL
Trading: SOL is used as collateral and for buying tokens.
Network fees: Every Solana transaction requires a small network fee (typically fractions of a cent). This goes to Solana validators, not FatCat.
Token accounts: The first time you receive a new token, a small amount of SOL is used to create a token account. This is refunded if you close the account later.
How much SOL do you need?
There is no minimum, but a practical starting amount depends on how you plan to trade.
Keep in mind that a small amount of SOL should always remain in your wallet for network fees.
Depositing other tokens
You can send any Solana SPL token to your wallet address.
If you have USDC, USDT, or any other token, send it to the same address and it will appear in your portfolio.
