Bitcoin Forum

Hi

I need someone with experience of making a Python bot to auto reply in Local bitcoin using its API.

Previous experience with local bitcoin API is essential, also not charging extortionate amounts

I never used Python but I can  do amazing things with nodejs and javascript

Do Local bitcoin TOS allow auto reply using bots? I thought that they would prevent it because it would be like pure spam or fake feedback.
If the platform detects that you are doing this via a bot, your account will be blocked, your funds will be frozen and you may not be able to use that site again.
you will risk with your account by using that bot.

This project should be easy, it can be built from scratch... here we have the contact function on the API:

https://localbitcoins.com/api-docs/#contact-post

Then we have nice examples of how it works with PHP and Pythonn:

https://github.com/3ttercap/LocalBitcoins-API/blob/master/_api_localbitcoins.php
https://github.com/mgp25/LocalBitcoins-API/blob/master/src/LocalBitcoin.py

Op can save some money if he spent some hours making it by himself.

Yes, they are allowing it because sometimes I too buy BTC from someone when I exhausted BTC on my LBC wallet. So I had experience that I got automated reply about how and what are the requirements for the payments or their payment details immediately after opening the trade but I never used it by myself.

EDIT

Found an Youtube video about creating auto responsder for LBC using python : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIYYZIGuf_o
