# Using Farmer Friends Bot

The Farmer Friends airdrop farming bot works by conducting all activities necessary to receive an airdrop. The activities we've automated are the result of research into previous airdrops and continuing investigations into new protocols/dapps. We have looked at previous airdrops to develop a framework for what criteria are required to qualify for an airdrop, what sort of methods are used for sybil detection, and how to maximize potential airdrop rewards. 

To start using the bot, simply open the telegram link <https://t.me/farmer_friends_bot> and click "menu"

After clicking "Create Wallets" then input the number of wallets you would like. Currently the maximum number of wallets is 10.

The bot will then generate the number of wallets inputted. Take note of the **MAIN WALLET** as this is the wallet where you will send ETH to distribute to your other wallets. \
\
Users should begin with the MAIN WALLET and NOT the FARMING WALLET. The farming wallet will not begin if there is no ETH balance in the main wallet. \
\
**In addition, make sure to write down your private keys on paper and store it somewhere safe. Farmer Friends cannot EVER restore your private keys, so if they are lost you will lose any funds on the wallet and lose any ability to claim your airdrops. Private keys are stored in an encrypted format for the purpose of the bot, but the team does not have access to them and has no means of recovering private keys.**

After saving your private keys, then transfer a minimum of 0.1 ETH for EACH FARMING WALLET to your MAIN WALLET.

After the bot has started farming, simply wait for it confirm when farming has been completed. During the first farming session it may take 30-60 minutes due to the anonymization process, **so do not spam click as this may cause issues and delay farming further.**&#x20;

Once you have received this message, you are done! Congratulations, you successfully farmed with our bot. From this point forward the bot will farm automatically at a randomized day/time every week. \
