Scopes and Permissions
Tracker separates data by scope. This is one of the most important ideas in the product.
If you understand scopes, the rest of the bot becomes much easier to use.
What a scope means
A scope answers this question:
Who is this wallet, watchlist, or history visible to?
Tracker mainly uses these user-facing scopes:
privategroup
Some users may also see:
admin
Normal users can ignore admin unless they were given operator access.
Private scope
Private scope is your personal area.
Use it for:
- your own wallets
- research wallets you follow personally
- a private watchlist that should not be shared
Private scope usually includes:
- your private watchlist
- your private activity
- your private alert history
- your private favorites
Group scope
Group scope belongs to one Telegram group.
Use it for:
- community watchlists
- team-shared tracked wallets
- group-specific wallet monitoring
Group scope usually includes:
- wallets added for that group
- the group's watchlist
- the group's activity and alerts
Why a wallet may seem βmissingβ
Most of the time, a wallet is not actually missing. It was added under a different scope.
Common examples:
- you added it in a Telegram group, but now you are checking private scope
- you added it in private scope, but now you are looking in a group
- you are logged in with another Telegram account
Who can use group scope
Group scope is not open to everyone automatically.
Tracker may require that you are one of the following:
- the owner of an active row in that group
- a verified Telegram group admin
- a bot admin
If you do not meet that condition, Tracker may hide that group scope even if you know the wallet address.
Admin scope
admin is an operator scope.
It is not part of the normal user experience.
If you see it, that means your Telegram account has elevated Tracker permissions.
For regular users, this page matters mostly so you understand that:
- some screenshots or support replies may mention
admin - but your own interface may only show
privateandgroup
The safest habit
Whenever something looks wrong, check scope first.
That should always be your first troubleshooting step:
- open the relevant screen
- look at the selected scope
- switch to the scope where the wallet was originally added
This solves a large share of user confusion without any support ticket.
