The bot will respond with your own unique deposit address (along with its QR code), to which you can send coins from your own wallet.

Some coins might give you multiple deposit addresses. Not all wallets support all address formats, so use the one you find the most convenient for you.

Once you send the coins to your unique deposit address, you should get a message about incoming deposit.

Deposit fees
