What is ADAMANT Exchange Bot?

This software operates an anonymous cryptocurrency exchange directly within ADAMANT Messenger conversations. Users transfer coins to the bot and request a different currency; it quotes current rates via ADAMANT InfoService, validates transfers on-chain, and sends payouts automatically. The operator controls all hot wallets—no accounts or KYC required—and MongoDB persists state so exchanges survive restarts.
