The Telegram Bot takes a command (cryptocurrency ticker) from a user, such as: /btc, /eth, /xrp, etc., performs a request to the CoinMarketCap API and returns to the user a price of the cryptocurrency in USD.

The Telegram Bot is a Flask framework application that uses a webhook to receive updates.

Supercool project! And happy this complex project worked! At some point I lost track what you were doing and had to make a mindmap of what goes where and why. You covered so many topics I've been practicing separately.
- Working with JSON,
- API calls
- GET, POST, HTTP Headers
- Web hooks
- SSL tunneling
- set up and launching a Web app
- and regex! oh my coding lord! It makes sense now.

Now my first bot is up and running. I want to modify it to return me a few tickers at once. And also round up the numbers to cents and some extra descriptions.

Hi, do you know how to deploy the exact same code to Heroku? I set the webhook manually as shown by you, but still my bot does not reply when I message it. Do i have to open some ports or something on Heroku? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi bro, web hook bots slows down when nobody use some time ex: after 1 or 2 hour when i send a message to web hook bot its slows down but after this other messages keeps running normal

Thanks for video that was really awesome!

I am studying a bot with a group help bot and a personal message bot running at the same time.
The private bot asks a question through the CommandHandller and wants to receive the answer and save it in the DB, but I am wandering because I do not know how to access it.
Are there any keywords or sample sources that might help?

Hey Oleg, thanks for this wonderful tutorial

Could you please help resolve this bug:
I go /btc
Bot replies 52000.646
I reply to the message “bought $20 today”
Bot replies Wrong data
Then I edited my message to “bought $20”.
After that bot stops replying at all.
/btc or blabla - noting works.

I tried to delete and set webhook again but no success. It works for other users well.

I tried to delete and set webhook again but no success. Also tried to reload my python anywhere instance.

It works for other users okay. 🤷🏼‍♂️
