The LBRY Telegram bot is a member of the [official LBRY Telegram group](https://t.me/lbryofficial). And running 24/7 on [lbry.melroy.org](https://lbry.melroy.org).

|
|
|
The bot is able to support you with all your basic questions regarding LBRY, including but not limited to listing the top channels, the LBRY Credit (LBC) price, mining data, address/transaction(s)/tip information and so much more.
