How to Start a New BloFin Bot
Welcome to the Pumpkin Token Algorithmic Trading Bot Guide! This step-by-step walkthrough will help you set up your bot securely and efficiently. Follow these instructions exactly to avoid issues. You’ll need a Sui wallet with at least $100 worth of Pumpkin tokens ready.
Step 1: Sign Up for BloFin
- Open your browser and go to https://partner.blofin.com/d/quantumvoidlabs
- Sign up using the referral code
quantumvoidlabs (it should appear in the dropdown for 5% cash back)
- Agree to the terms and conditions
- Verify you’re human to complete registration
This referral code ensures you get that extra 5% cash back—don’t skip it!
Step 2: Set Up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Your new account will prompt you immediately about low security. This is mandatory for safety.
- Enable 2FA on all your devices and accounts using Google Authenticator (or similar)
- Save your Google Authenticator backup code securely—you’ll need it if you lose access
- Once saved, click “I have saved the backup key properly”
2FA protects against unauthorized access. Never share your backup code!
Step 3: Create Your Exchange API Key
- In the BloFin dashboard, look at the top right next to Assets—hover over the figurine icon and select API
- Click + Create API Key
- In the Application Name dropdown, select “Quantum Void Labs” as the 3rd party
- Name your key something memorable (e.g.,
qvlbot)
- In the Permissions section, checkmark the Trade permission to allow the bot to trade
- Enter a simple passphrase you’ll remember (you’ll need it later)
- Click Next
- Verify with your email and Google Authenticator prompt, then submit
A popup will show your API Key and Secret Key. Copy these immediately—you’ll paste them into the bot dashboard next.
Step 4: Prepare Your Sui Wallet and Navigate to the Bot Dashboard
- Ensure your Sui wallet has at least $100 worth of Pumpkin tokens
- Open a new browser window and go to trade.quantumvoid.org (keeps things organized)
- Click BloFin Perps or Multi Exchange Perps button
- Click Connect Sui Wallet, then connect and sign the authorization
Step 5: Add BloFin Credentials to the Bot
- Click Add BloFin Credentials
- Paste your API Key and Secret Key from Step 3
- Enter the passphrase you created earlier
- Click Save Credentials
Double-check your pastes—no typos here, or the bot won’t connect!
- Click Bot Management
- Scroll down to Bot Configurations—you’ll see icons like
<> (JSON editor), a pencil, and others
- Click the
<> icon to open a new window with the JSON config
- Edit and customize your settings here (e.g., symbols, strategies—refer to bot docs for details)
Step 7: Deposit Funds into BloFin
- Back in BloFin, click Assets > Funding
- Choose your deposit asset (recommended: USDC on the SUI network for speed and low fees)
- Deposit your funds and wait for them to arrive
Always send a small test amount (e.g., $10) before transferring larger sums.
Step 8: Convert Funds to USDT-M (Bot’s Trading Account)
- Once deposited, move your USDC to the Spot account
- Swap it for USDT in Spot
- Transfer the USDT to the USDT-M account (this is where the bot trades)
Step 9: Set Leverage on BloFin Futures
- Go to BloFin Futures > USDT-M
- Change the leverage type to Cross (instead of Isolated) for shared margin
- Set your leverage for each trading symbol (e.g., 10x is a safe starting point)
Step 10: Launch and Monitor Your Bot
- Return to the bot dashboard and click Start on your bot
- Watch orders populate in your BloFin account
- For real-time monitoring:
- Click Trading Console > Bot Logs to view event logs
- If you see any RED errors, report them to the Telegram group for quick fixes
🎉 Congratulations—Your Bot is Live!
Monitor it closely at first, and remember: trading involves risk. Start small, learn from logs, and reach out in TG for support.
Final Reminder
Follow these steps precisely. If something goes wrong, it’s often a small detail like a missed permission or test deposit.
Happy trading with Pumpkin! 🎃
