Wallet Setup & Deposits
After registration, your next step is to set up your Smart Contract Wallet (SCW) and fund it for trading.
What is a Smart Contract Wallet?
A Smart Contract Wallet (SCW) is a personal blockchain account created specifically for your trading activities. Unlike your regular wallet (EOA), an SCW is a programmable contract that:
- Holds your trading funds securely on-chain
- Executes trades on whitelisted DEXs only
- Protects withdrawals - funds can only go to your registered wallet
- Works across chains - same address on every supported blockchain
Deploying Your SCW
Step 1: Request Deposit Address
Send the /deposit command:
/deposit
Step 2: Wait for Deployment
If this is your first time, the bot will deploy your SCW:
⏳ Deploying your Smart Contract Wallet...
This only happens once. Your wallet will have the same
address on all supported chains.
Please wait...
Deployment typically takes 10-30 seconds. The bot pays the gas fees for deployment.
Step 3: Receive Your Address
Once deployed, you'll see your deposit address:
✅ Your Smart Contract Wallet is Ready!
📥 Deposit Address:
0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678
This address works on:
✅ Metis Andromeda (Chain ID: 1088)
Send any supported tokens to this address to start trading.
⚠️ Only send tokens on supported chains!
Funding Your Wallet
Supported Tokens
Currently supported on Metis Andromeda:
| Token | Contract Address | Decimals |
|---|---|---|
| WETH | 0x420000000000000000000000000000000000000A | 18 |
| m.USDC | 0xEA32A96608495e54156Ae48931A7c20f0dcc1a21 | 6 |
| WMetis | 0x75cb093E4D61d2A2e65D8e0BBb01DE8d89b53481 | 18 |
How to Deposit
- Copy your SCW address from the bot message
- Open your wallet (MetaMask, Trust Wallet, etc.)
- Select the correct network (Metis Andromeda)
- Send tokens to your SCW address
- Wait for confirmation (usually 1-2 blocks)
Double-check the network! Sending tokens on an unsupported chain may result in lost funds.
Deposit Detection
The bot automatically detects deposits every 5 minutes. You can also check manually:
/balance
Returning to Deposit
If you've already deployed your SCW, /deposit shows your existing address:
📥 Your Deposit Address
0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef12345678
Active on:
✅ Metis Andromeda
Current Balances:
• 100.00 m.USDC
• 0.05 WETH
Cross-Chain Deposits
Your SCW address is deterministic - it's the same on every chain where the LazaiTrader factory is deployed.
What This Means
- Deploy once, use everywhere
- No need to remember different addresses per chain
- As new chains are added, your existing address works automatically
Currently Active Chains
| Chain | Status | Can Deposit? |
|---|---|---|
| Metis Andromeda | Active | ✅ Yes |
| Zircuit | Coming Soon | ⏳ Not yet |
| Ethereum | Planned | ⏳ Not yet |
| Base | Planned | ⏳ Not yet |
Do not send funds on chains that aren't active yet! Even though your address exists, trading functionality may not be available.
Deposit Best Practices
Start Small
Test with a small amount first to ensure everything works correctly.
Verify the Address
Always copy the address from the bot - don't type it manually.
Check Network
Make sure you're sending on Metis Andromeda (Chain ID: 1088).
Keep Some Gas
Your personal wallet needs gas for deposits. The SCW doesn't need gas for trading (the bot pays).
Troubleshooting
Deposit Not Showing?
- Wait 5 minutes - Auto-detection runs periodically
- Check the transaction - Verify it confirmed on the block explorer
- Use
/balance- Force a balance check - Verify the chain - Make sure you sent on Metis Andromeda
Wrong Network?
If you sent tokens on an unsupported network:
- The tokens may be at your SCW address on that chain
- You'll need to wait until that chain is supported
- Or use a direct blockchain transaction to recover (advanced)
Next Steps
Once your wallet is funded, you're ready to:
- Check Balances - Verify your deposits
- Configure Strategies - Set up automated trading
