Limits & thresholds
The numbers below are the ones OPALE actually enforces today. They reflect the current configuration and may change as the bot evolves.
Deposits
Section titled “Deposits”| Asset | Confirmations required to credit |
|---|---|
| BTC | 1 confirmation (typically 10–30 minutes) |
| Universal tokens | Same as BTC — 1 confirmation |
There’s also a small minimum deposit notification threshold: deposits below 750 sats don’t trigger a notification.
Listings (sells)
Section titled “Listings (sells)”A sell listing must clear a small minimum total value to be valid:
| Threshold | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum total listing value | 883 sats |
Below this, the listing transaction would fall under Bitcoin’s dust threshold once you account for the small postage that rides with it. Bump the amount or unit price to clear it.
Withdrawals
Section titled “Withdrawals”OPALE does not enforce a per-transaction or per-day withdrawal cap today. 📨 Send BTC sweeps your full BTC balance to a destination of your choice.
If you need stricter controls (whitelist, 2FA, daily caps), the recommendation is to reveal your recovery phrase and use a self-custody wallet for amounts that warrant it.
Trade size
Section titled “Trade size”There’s no globally enforced minimum or maximum trade size — those are bounded by:
- Per-listing minimums on WhiteNode (rare to hit in practice).
- Bitcoin dust — a transaction with output values too small relative to its size will be rejected.
- Your own balance.
Practically, very small trades are dominated by network fees (the smallest viable trade size moves with current network conditions). OPALE’s quotes show the absolute fee, so you can decide when a trade is too small to be worth it.
Referral program
Section titled “Referral program”| Threshold | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum claim | $2 USD equivalent in BTC |
| Payout cadence | Continuous accrual; payout job runs every 30 s when above minimum |
| Tier 1 share | First 50 codes — 35 % of operator fee |
| Tier 2 share | Codes 51–300 — 30 % |
| Tier 3 share | Beyond 300 — 25 % |
| Code length | 4–32 alphanumeric characters |

Onboarding home view
Section titled “Onboarding home view”OPALE shows the funded home view (with trading actions) only after your balance crosses $2 USD equivalent in BTC. Below that, you see the deposit-first nudge instead. This keeps new users from hitting “insufficient balance” on every action — it’s UX, not a hard restriction.
Rate limits
Section titled “Rate limits”Telegram-side rate limits are mitigated by anti-rate-limit wrappers in OPALE — you shouldn’t see a “too many requests” toast under normal use. If you do, slow down for a few seconds; the bot will resume normally.
There are no per-command spam limits beyond what Telegram itself enforces.
