Hello Gem Nation and Crypto Enthusiasts!
We recently hosted an AMA with TTF. So here we are up with the AMA transcript, for those who missed the live session, this post will be a time saver & a feeder of knowledge for everyone.
INTRODUCTION
Running Beast | TGH:
Hello everyone. Welcome to another TGH AMA session. Today we have TTF with us. Please welcome our guest today — @dantek5
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
Hi Everyone. Happy to be here and thanks for having me.
Running Beast | TGH:
Welcome buddy. Hopefully you are ready. I am super excited to hear from you.Let’s kick off with some introduction.
Please introduce yourself to the community?Please tell us about your journey, experience and expertise in the Crypto field so far.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
Sure thing.
Got into crypto about 3 years ago. Came in as an investor in large caps and got rekt. Then moved to swing trading and got rekt. Then decided to short and scalp and got rekt. Which brought me to micro caps and startup launches, hunting for those 100x lottery tickets. And once again got rekt 😂
But this led me to learn how to read the blockchain and see what was really going on and how or why I was getting rekt. The newfound knowledge led to me helping out others who asked, and even did forensics on some big cases about how it went down, and in some instances locating or ID’ing the individual behind a wallet hack or project scam, which would then go to authorities.
This newfound knowledge led to the creation of TTF Bot, which is my first and only project, launched a little over a year ago now.
Running Beast | TGH:
There you go, that’s how we are build.
Never give up 😎
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
Yup, just keep going. The journey is what it’s all about too
Running Beast | TGH:
Thanks for the intro, I am eager to know more about TTF.
Please give us a brief introduction about your project and what are you guys trying to showcase? What is the story behind its origin? When did it start?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
Interesting story actually. It all started a little over a year ago back in January of 2023
Don, Muhammad and I were invested in a token where we all got dusted due to a malicious activity. Upon digging into the blockchain, I saw all the red flags were there in plain site. Had we been aware about them as they were happening, we would’ve of all gotten out in profit vs incurring losses.
Don said to me…”Dan, people need to see what you’re seeing in real-time to help them while simultaneously exposing these scumbags. This is so wrong and too many innocent traders getting constantly screwed. Let’s make a utility to help everyone by bringing your knowledge and what you see and provide them with data and alerts.”
Muhammad who also shared the same vision was onboard and TTF Bot was conceptualized. Once we had an MVP ready, the token was launched in March on the BSC Network. And later migrated over to ETH in October.
Running Beast | TGH:
That’s so true, people just remember the highs of the bull market, but seldom talk about the bulk of shitcoins that pop up at such a high frequency.
The interesting fact is we lose more in the bull season than in the bear market,😂
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
LOL. That seems pretty accurate
Running Beast | TGH:
Let’s get deep into the project.
How are you going to scale up your project with time? What are the special features that make it Innovative and Unique?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
The main use case was to build a utility that would provide a ton of information at their fingertips, without the need to use multiple bots or go to several websites all providing a small piece of data.
We proceeded to build TTF by bringing all this together off 1 scan of a token. With extensive research, many new data points that were not easily available or no one else was providing, were added to the scan report. Too many to list 😊, but innovative and unique, while also allowing group owners to use one bot vs 3 to 5, and still not having a fuller picture.
Running Beast | TGH:
So you actually combined the good things of various bots into one TTF.
Yep, the less complicated, the better. That’s my POV, 😅
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
What was truly innovative was to provide notifications to people once they chose to Track a token. Alerts such as taxes changed, buybacks, burns, liquidity added or removed. Token sells or transfers, airdrops sold, wallets blacklisted, etc…
Yes, and data that no one lese had as well. Whatever we deemed useful
While also trying not to show too much noise
Running Beast | TGH:
How do you guys actually get this data? Like what’s your database that you refer to?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
As for scaling, we haven’t stopped and continue to do that. For ex: we began supporting ETH and BSC, but currently now support 9 chains, and more coming. This keeps increasing our reach. We constantly look to improve and add more features and listen to user feedback.
Running Beast | TGH:
That sounds amazing.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
The bulk of our data comes from building our own nodes. For performance reasons and also due to other sources not having what we wanted. But we also get data from other sources not to re-invent the wheel either
We still have much to do to scale and many items on our roadmap. Other platforms for example. Added utility. Etc…
We’re not stopping any time soon :)
Running Beast | TGH:
That’s the way to do it, use what’s available. Then build better.
Yes, definitely we want more
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
It’s challenging though. Due to different types of traders. Who’s sniping, who’s investing, low caps vs large caps. They all want different types if data and therefore will have some noise. But we try to provide a good balance
Running Beast | TGH:
In recent few years, various industries have looked towards a Web3 future. Please give us some info about security and How does TTFBot plan to stand out in a highly competitive market.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
Simple, by providing real value with the tool we offer, and put our heart and soul into making it as great as can be.
Security is an ongoing battle. We strive to provide alerts and potential red flags.
Also, what will help us stand out to new people entering the market, especially if trading high risk startups, is the data provided also acts as an educational exercise.
Many people have no idea what half the information is or what it means. But by seeing it, they will begin to question it and learn from it, and therefore it becomes more actionable.
Running Beast | TGH:
Especially beneficial for the newbies who tend to give in to market fluctuations.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
As I always say. Use TTF Bot to trade Safer and Smarter 😉
Running Beast | TGH:
Yeah, when people realise its significance. Crypto currency won’t be called a scam.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
100%. I wish to eventually do an educational series to go over different tokens and associated data. An opportunity to explain and help others interpret what they’re looking at
Oof, not sure about that. Still too much the wild wild west 😂
Running Beast | TGH:
Can’t agree less.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
And the crypto gamblers make it too easy for them to eat. So they ain;t going anywhere any time soon.
Running Beast | TGH:
Let’s get some insight into your token, Please tell us about its use case and how it will be crucial for the growth of the project. How are the proceeds going to benefit and foster long term sustainability?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
But as traders get smarter and trade more legit projects, it should minimize feeding them and hoping to come out of the dark side and actually try to bring real value to the space
The bot has been tokenized in order to benefit holders. For starters, we have 3 tiers, Free, Pro, and Premium.
The free tier gives us exposure and user adoption. It is monetized with ad’s and also some affiliate referrals. ALL Ad revenues are designed to go to holders via a staking app, which has yet to be released, but soon
The Pro and Premium tiers require holding a certain amount of tokens or paying a monthly fee based on their preference. This provides buy pressure from diamond holders whi want to make use of the bot
A 3rd option will be released at a later time which will bring more revenues to the project
Running Beast | TGH:
Custom for Devs?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
We also get revenues from some other smaller service. A new one we are exploring at the moment is called TTF Boost, which is to help kickstart safe and innovative projects
We did not grow out this tier. So for now, it’s to be seen if will push this with some innovative add-on. A matter of priorities :)
Here’s what token holders have to look forward too. This show our current ad revenues which are all meant for chart support and holder rewards.
The stables accumulated are meant for on going buybacks while the tokens are what has been accumulated from buybacks already done from ad revenues
I only see upside from where I’m sitting 😉
We are also fully sustainable at this stage. With other revenues covering operating costs and salaries.
Running Beast | TGH:
That’s amazing.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
And this is not from taxes BTW
Although we have put in our sweat for a year without taking a dime to get to this stage. We mean business. Not just a temporary project
But we currently have months of reserves and are being compensated for our labour. And of course we still have several other revenue streams being worked on
Running Beast | TGH:
When you are actually planning for a larger goal, these things seem to be really small. But these are things that actually help to build its foundation.
What kind of partnerships is TTFBot looking for to boost its growth and adoption?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
These are foundations that will allow us to expand. Larger goals are also being looked at. For one, like the TTF Boost service we are currently testing. Which has already resulted in 20k of revenues, and this is really nothing to what I hope to achieve
We are always open to partnerships. We are already partnered with over 30 other projects and I’ve turned down just as many.
We look to grow not just with partners, but via other initiatives. Innovation, development, bring new value. And of course, a utility we believe everyone should use.
We currently serve 70k users via DM, and over 20k Groups. TTF Bit produce over 100k scan a day
We plan to grow this via different means, whether marketing, video series fro branding, listings, new platforms, etc…
Can anyone guess how many scans to date we users have performed?
Running Beast | TGH:
100k??
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
I just said we do that daily 😂
Running Beast | TGH:
😂😂 Well that’s what I wanted to say😉
That’s amazing, it’s gonna rise in this bull market
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
How many combined users from all the groups TTF is in?
While our growth has been great which shows TTF is not just another bot, we are aiming higher
Running Beast | TGH:
And lastly,
Please tell us about your Upcoming events, Roadmap, milestones and potential updates moving forward.
Last question before we move on to the live AMA questions.
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
We have yet to really push/monetize TTF Pro. This is in the works. We will also be releasing TTF Premium after that.
It’s all a big mystery
Kidding :)
In the immediate and what I’m willing to share:
- staking
- new Pro features
- Premium
- revamped website and whitepaper (very dated)
- Pizza and Beer
Many partnerships always in the queue as well
Running Beast | TGH:
All the best for your upcoming campaign.

Now we move on to the live AMA questions from our community members.
Please answer a few questions and in the end select the best question as a winner.
LIVE AMA QUESTIONS
pak rt ini bang senggol dong:
There have been challenges and problems in cryptocurrencies: such as “Liquidity, Transparency, Decentralization, Price Manipulation and Transaction Latency”. What is the way the Boson team solves this kind of problem?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
By providing data quickly and sometimes hard to find. It doesn’t solve, it helps. People need to be diligent. And no tool can predict people’s intentions or actions
Cyoo | EG:
With TTF bot being available on multiple platforms and supporting various blockchains, how does it ensure a seamless user experience across iOS, Android, and Web, while maintaining compatibility and security across different blockchain networks like Ethereum, Polygon, and Binance Smart Chain?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
Through constant effort, tweaks, bug fixes, and listing to user feedback. We also have a support group where anyone can ask for help
Deviator:
You mentioned some plans free and premium and potential new Pro features. I really wonder is there any per use manner model soon as sometimes people are hesitating to use big portion of product and therefore potentially not become a member. Also projects you just as mentioned using your bot full of them use it as white label ?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
No, we don’t offer white labeled bots as we are mostly a B2C product. Although we do offer API depending on what it’s for.
Based on holding or monthly
olivinc:
In what ways has TTF demonstrated adaptability to various use cases, and can you provide concrete examples of successful implementations across different industries?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
In many ways. Best examples is the user growth and numbers I provided. This is proven example, not an MVP at this stage
αɱɓε૨:
There are many telegram bots offering contract scanning, on demand charts, etc. presently I use Otto simulator, PIRBViewBot,etc. I’m considering trying out TTF, but I need to be convinced, so what features do you offer that makes you stand out from these competitors ?
Dan | TTF Co-Founder / CMO:
Sure. We’ve been around since before those you mentioned. Otto provides a different use case (simulation) and we are partnered with them as we compliment each other. Since we released our Beta a year ago, many other have come out that we have inspired, and some outright just trying to clone TTF with no added value.
Why does TTF stand out:
- the first to offer several data points
- the first to offer an all-in-one
- proven and sustainable and can scale
- alerts on transactions others don’t have
- innovation overall, not just overlap
Best way to be convinced, is to just try it and compare 👍
THANK YOU.
