Uniswap on Optimism can mean more than one route

An Optimism group asking for a Uniswap buybot might be talking about a v2 pair, a v3 pool, or a v4 route. The Telegram setup should not hide that behind a generic label. It should make the saved route clear enough that admins can confirm what the bot is watching.

baes scan supports Uniswap alerts on OP Mainnet with Telegram commands that fit the normal group workflow. Invite @BAESBuyBot, give it permission to post, and save the token where alerts should appear.

Add Optimism Uniswap alerts

Use:

/watch optimism <token> any <first_mint_block> uniswap

Then confirm:

/pools

For Telegram topics:

/topic here

Use /settings to tune thresholds and alert presentation.

v2, v3, and v4 need different expectations

Uniswap v2-style routes are pair-oriented. Uniswap v3 routes are pool and fee-tier aware. Uniswap v4 routes can be even more specific depending on the pool identifier and hook setup. A useful buybot does not ask the group to learn all of that vocabulary before getting started, but it still has to respect the route in setup.

If the community has a direct pool link, use it when asking for support. If the token has multiple Uniswap routes, choose the one with the active market rather than the one that merely exists.

Troubleshooting

Check /pools first. Confirm the route, token, and topic. If the saved watch looks right but alerts are quiet, verify that buys are landing on that Uniswap route and not on Velodrome or another Optimism venue.

For help, send the token, Uniswap pool link, first mint block if known, and Telegram group to @mrtdlgc on Twitter/X or Telegram.

Summary

For an Optimism Uniswap Telegram buybot, use /watch optimism <token> any <first_mint_block> uniswap, confirm with /pools, and tune with /settings. The goal is a clean OP Mainnet feed that matches the Uniswap route buyers actually use.
