Count unique wallets from Telegram
When you need to know how broad on-chain participation is, ask in Telegram. Notis queries Bitquery's count distinct metric and explains the network, activity, and period covered.
Trigger
New Message Received
Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.
Action
Count Distinct Metric
Tool to use the count distinct metric to aggregate unique values for a field. use when you need to count the number of unique occurrences in a dataset.
Why this helps
Estimating participation from a stream of transactions is easy to get wrong and difficult to repeat consistently.
- Distinguish the number of unique participants from total transactions.
- Make ad hoc community and token activity checks easier to repeat.
- Get the scope of each count alongside the answer.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Telegram and Bitquery to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation and instruct Notis in plain language to count distinct addresses matching Telegram requests.
- 3Select Telegram New Message Received as the trigger, then choose the run-report channel.
- 4Test a request with a known token, network, and time window.
Questions about this workflow
Does a distinct wallet count equal token holders?
Not necessarily. It counts unique addresses in the matching dataset and timeframe; it does not establish current token ownership unless the query specifically supports that definition.
Can the query cover one transaction type?
Describe the token, activity, network, and timeframe in your Telegram message so Notis can narrow the Bitquery query.
