Solana has been dealing with issues on its network for quite some time. Now, a recent report by Bloomberg is claiming that similar issues might be spilling over to other chains on the Ethereum ecosystem. And, it largely has to do with bots attempting to make trading profits. Bots clogging the network? The report explains […]
Depending on what type of community you're trying to create, you may want to add a Discord bot to help manage users and keep people engaged. Adding bots doesn't require a programming degree and there's no steep learning curve–even beginners to Discord can do it!
What are Discord bots?
Discord bots are AI software that perform predefined actions that help you manage your Discord servers and provide ways to enhance community engagement. Discord bots can do anything from welcome new users to the server, play music in your voice channels, ban troublemakers, schedule events, create “leveling” systems for users, and so much more.
There are literally thousands of Discord bots out there, so be sure you only don't click any links on scammy-looking websites. Verify you're getting the bot from the official source before proceeding.
How to add bots to your Discord server
If you want to add a bot to a Discord server, you must be an administrator of that server. Users with permissions less than administrator won't be able to add bots to the server.
The first step to adding a bot to your Discord is to head over to the bot's official website (again, make sure it's the official website).
Note: In our example, we'll be adding the MEE6 bot to a server, which allows you to greet new members, moderate channels, set up streaming and social media alerts, and more.
The instructions differ from site to site, but in general, you'll only need to click a button to begin the process of adding the bot to your Discord server. In some cases, you may need to create an account.
In the MEE6 bot's case, click “Add to Discord.”

Click “Authorize” in the bottom-right corner of the window.

You'll then be redirected to the bot's website's dashboard. Select the server you would like to add the bot to.

A new window will appear. Here, you'll see that the bot wants to access your account and what it will allow the bot to do. Click “Continue.”

Do note that the process may vary between bots, though the differences are usually minor. Once you've added the bot to your server, you can begin customizing it for your community.
Around the world, technology has had a profound effect on almost every industry. A lot of new advancements have impacted the online gambling industry, too. The only way to place a bet before the internet was to visit a physical casino or bookmaker.
Deploying funny-sounding strategies like “sandwich trading,” bots have conquered much of the market for Ethereum-based digital tokens, scooping up hundreds of millions — if not billions — of dollars in trading profits over the years. Along the way, they’ve made enemies by front-running others’ transactions, something blockchain-fueled trading fundamentally permits. There’s been a benefit to […]
We hear about the need for better visibility in the cybersecurity space – detecting threats earlier and more accurately. We often hear about the dwell time and the time to identify and contain a data breach. Many of us are familiar with IBM’s Cost of a Data Breach Report that has been tracking this statistic for years.

Popular TV-torrent distribution group ETTV has vanished. The official site has been offline for more than a week and many bots already stopped uploading content to third-party sites weeks ago. ETTV has recovered from internal troubles in the past but, without a word from the admin, a comeback is not expected anytime soon.
