Important Disclaimer First
High Risk: Sniping and trading bots are extremely high-risk activities. You can lose your entire investment very quickly due to rug pulls, honeypots, bot failures, or market volatility.
No Guarantees: This is not financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Responsibility: You are solely responsible for your funds and trading decisions. Always do your own research (DYOR) on any token you consider buying.
What is the Toxi Solana Bot?
Toxi is a popular Telegram bot designed for trading tokens on the Solana blockchain. Its primary function is sniping, which means buying a new token the moment it becomes available for trading (at "launch"). It automates the process to be faster than manual trading, aiming to get in at the lowest possible price.
Prerequisites: What You Need Before Starting
A Solana Wallet: You need a non-custodial wallet like Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack. This is where your SOL and tokens will be stored.
SOL for Gas and Trading: You need SOL in your wallet for two purposes:
Transaction Fees (Gas): Every trade and bot action costs a tiny amount of SOL.
Capital: The actual money you use to buy the tokens.
A Telegram Account: The bot operates entirely within the Telegram app.
The Official Toxi Bot Link: To avoid scams, always use the official link from their website or Twitter. A common official link is:

Step-by-Step Guide to Using the Toxi Bot
Step 1: Connect Your Wallet
Open the Toxi bot on Telegram using the official link.
Send the
/startcommand. The bot will present you with a menu.Click on "Connect Wallet" or a similar option.
A new message will appear with a "Connect" button. Clicking it will open your wallet app (e.g., Phantom) and prompt you to sign a message to connect. This does not cost SOL and does not give the bot access to your funds. It simply creates a linked session.
Step 2: Configure Your Sniper Settings
Before you snipe, you MUST configure the bot. This is crucial for managing risk.
In the main menu, click on "Sniper".
You will see several key settings:
Buy Amount: The amount of SOL you want the bot to spend on each snipe.
Slippage: The maximum price movement you are willing to accept. For a new, volatile launch, this is often set between 25% and 50%. A higher slippage increases the chance of a successful buy but risks a worse price.
Priority Fee (Tip): An extra fee you pay to validators to prioritize your transaction. A higher fee (e.g., 0.0005 to 0.01 SOL) can help you get in front of other buyers during a competitive launch. This is often the key to a successful snipe.
Auto Sell: You can pre-set sell conditions (e.g., sell at a 2x profit, or at a 50% loss). Use this with caution, as a token's liquidity can be pulled, making an auto-sell fail.
Configure these settings carefully before every snipe attempt.
Step 3: Finding a Token to Snipe
You need the token's CA (Contract Address). The bot cannot find tokens for you; you must find them through other means.
Telegram Sniper Groups: Join groups that announce new launches.
Twitter (X): Follow degen accounts and developers who announce their projects.
DEX Screener: The most common tool. Find a new, untraded token on dexscreener.com, copy its Solana contract address.
CRITICAL: Always verify the CA from multiple sources. Scammers often post fake addresses that lead to honeypot scams.
Step 4: Executing the Snipe
Once you have the CA and your settings are configured:
In the "Sniper" section of the bot, you will see an option to "Paste CA" or "Enter Contract Address".
Paste the contract address you copied.
The bot will often show you token details (like supply, LP) – verify them quickly.
Wait for the token to become tradable. The bot will typically show a countdown or a "Waiting for LP" status.
As soon as the token launches (LP is added), the bot will automatically execute the buy order with your pre-set parameters.
Step 5: Selling Your Tokens
You can sell manually or use the bot's auto-sell feature.
Manual Sell:
Go to the "Wallet" or "Portfolio" section in the bot.
It will show the tokens you hold.
Select the token you want to sell.
Choose the sell percentage (e.g., 25%, 50%, 100%) and confirm. The bot will execute the trade.
Auto-Sell (Take Profit/Stop Loss):
Set this up in the "Sniper" settings before you buy, or sometimes you can set it after in the "Portfolio" section.
Take Profit (%): Sells automatically when the price reaches a certain multiple (e.g., 2 for 2x).
Stop Loss (%): Sells automatically to limit losses if the price drops to a certain level.

Crucial Tips and Best Practices
Start Small: Use a very small amount of SOL (e.g., 0.1 SOL) for your first few snipes to learn the process without significant risk.
DYOR is Everything: The bot is just a tool. Its success depends entirely on you picking the right token. Check the project, team, and socials.
Beware of Honeypots: These are tokens that you can buy but cannot sell. Use a tool like RugCheck.xyz or Honeypot.is to scan the CA before buying.
Monitor Liquidity: A low initial liquidity pool is a major red flag for a rug pull.
Gas Wars Are Real: During a hyped launch, you may need to set a very high priority fee (e.g., 0.01 SOL or more) to have a chance of getting in.
The Bot Can Fail: Transactions can fail due to network congestion, insufficient slippage, or being outsped by other bots. This is normal.
By following this guide, you will understand the mechanics of using the Toxi Solana bot. Remember, the tool is simple, but using it profitably is the real challenge. Always prioritize risk management.
