Tip Alert Bot

Since PolkAssembly is down (presumably due to the recent runtime update) we are going to have to do this here… :D

Dear Council,

Under the tipping system our freelancers invest time up front without really knowing what kind of reward their work will yield. In the absence of a fixed “salary”, it is vital for them to monitor their tip requests closely to ensure that they get the rewards they deserve.

As a Dotsama freelancer myself, I have spent my fair share of time refreshing doTreasury as well. But that ends today…

…with the TipAlert bot!

I have built a notification bot on telegram that alerts users of any changes to tip requests relevant to their wallets (finder/beneficiary).

With this tool the reward tracking process is now very smooth and convenient. This allows our freelancers to focus on building and creating!

Try it out: t.me/tipAlertKusamaBot (works for all tip requests created after block 10344510)

The code is open source: https://github.com/gabrieljaegerde/tipAlert_telegram

The KSM address of the receiver can be verified in the README of the GitHub repo.

Total time spent on this project: 75 hours.

I am looking forward to being conveniently notified of your tips on my phone and remain at your disposal for any questions. :D

Thanks for your time.
