The best cold storage wallet is the one you actually transfer to regularly. Fortunately, that’s easy to do with any cold wallet (Ledger, Trezor, even a paper wallet), especially if you automate it.

This tutorial will show you how to set up free, custom alerts that will check your crypto wallet balance 24/7. The alerts will notify you when the token balance on any of your wallets goes over a certain amount, so you know it’s time to transfer them to cold storage.

You’ll also learn how you can automate the transfers, so you can spend more time trading and less time on wallet housekeeping. An additional bonus is that you can schedule the transfers to happen when gas fees are at their lowest. All without a single line of code.

First, let's quickly cover some basics, in plain English:

A crypto wallet stores your private keys. A cold wallet is not connected to the Internet, which makes it more secure, but less convenient. That’s the main difference between a cold wallet and a hot wallet.

To get the most out of your cold wallet, you have to actually move holdings to it regularly. If you let your funds build up in a hot wallet or an exchange wallet like Coinbase, you’re not using a cold wallet properly.

The more wallets you manage, approvals you add and dapps you interact with, the greater the likelihood of getting hacked and drained of your precious profits. A powerful strategy to minimize this risk is to monitor your balances across each hot wallet, and manually move tokens to your cold wallet once a week.

Get the public address of your cold wallet. Find the “send crypto” function from your hot wallet, specify how much crypto you want to move to cold storage, and approve the transfer. 

Heads up: This is an on-chain action that incurs gas fees. You can see how much a simple transfer will cost right now using 

If you’re like most crypto traders, though, you have at least 5 active hot wallets at any given time. That means checking the balance of each token on each hot wallet, plus transferring any excess to your cold wallet, is painfully time-consuming to do again and again. The hours spent performing these necessary tasks quickly begin to pile up. 

Seasoned traders automate and streamline their crypto workflows, but this usually requires coding–unless you use Boto.

How to check crypto wallet balance automatically

For this walkthrough, we’ll assume you’re monitoring hot wallets on ethereum for ERC-20 tokens, and getting your alerts via Telegram. However, the process is the same for other chains and other alert platforms like Discord, email, and more.

 and tap “Use This Bot”. You’ll need to create an account on Boto.io in the process. Now it’s time to set up your alerts!

Tap “Connect Telegram”. You’ll see a confirmation message in Telegram. Navigate back to the setup page and choose your Telegram handle from the dropdown menu. (Not seeing it there? Tap the refresh 🔁 button!)

Fill in the public address of one of your hot wallets in the “Wallet address” box.

Choose the ERC-20 token you want to monitor the balance of. Set the minimum quantity you want to be alerted for. Example: I want to get alerted anytime my DAI balance gets over 100.

Tap “Save and Turn On” and you’re done! Now you’ll get alerted every time too much of that particular token builds up on that wallet. That’s your cue to transfer some of them to your cold wallet and minimize your risk of losing them.

How to transfer crypto to Ledger, Trezor, or any cold storage automatically

If moving crypto to your hardware wallet becomes a chore, and your balances are getting too high for comfort on your hot wallets, a smart move is to automate the transfer.

It’s a lot like the alert bot, except instead of sending an alert, it takes a pre-authorized action on your behalf. In this case, that action is automatically moving a certain number of tokens to cold storage like a Ledger Nano X or Trezor hardware wallet.

You can even optimize the transfer to happen only when gas fees are low!

Here’s the easy setup bot that will carry out your wallet chores, on your terms: 

Send crypto to Nano Ledger, Trezor, any cold wallet automatically (without coding)

All you have to do is pre-authorize the maximum token transfer, and quickly fill out an easy setup form. The authorization involves interacting with the ERC-20 token smart contract.

When the transfer actually happens, you’re interacting with the Boto.io smart contract, which has been audited by a blockchain security firm (you can see the results in 

For a limited time, Boto is covering ALL the transfer fees, so go forth and automate!

We're doing this to encourage people to get familiar with our new Smart Actions features, which let you set up bots to take on-chain action automatically. Now anyone can automate their crypto moves with Boto.io--without needing to code.

When you set up a transfer through Boto, you're authorizing our smart contract to move up to a certain amount of a certain token.

Do you regularly move tokens from a hot wallet to a cold wallet, but wish it didn't cost so much in gas? 

If your “prime time” for wallet housekeeping is the same as lots of other people, guess what - the network gets congested and you’re paying more in gas. Over time, that adds up.

Wouldn't it be great if you could get that done when gas fees are really low,  while you sleep?

That’s where bots come in. With Boto.io, you can set up a custom bot that does this for you, without ever having to write a line of code ​​😻

 bot and click “Use this Recipe”. Click the + sign in the Smart Actions Transfer block. 

You’ll be asked to connect your wallet, choose an ERC-20 token and the maximum amount that Boto is authorized to transfer. 

Feeling your spidey sense go off? GOOD. That's healthy caution at work. Head over to 

 to DYOR, learn how this functionality works and inspect our smart contract audit results.

Hit the "refresh" button and choose your sending wallet from the dropdown.

2. Enter the receiving wallet and amount.

Make sure there are enough tokens in your sending wallet to cover gas fees. In the future there will be a small action fee, as well, but we are waiving those for now 🤑 

The transaction tends to cost around 110,457 computation units. If the gas price at the time of the transaction is 34 gwei, that's 110,457 x 34 gwei = 3755538 gwei. Convert that into the ERC-20 token you're transferring to get an idea of how much gas will cost. 

To play it safe, however, plan for the gas limit of 212,672.

How low do you want the gas fees to be before this transaction is triggered?

Now just save the bot and turn it on ⚡ 

You'll be able to see any transfers completed by this bot in your Smart Actions log, accessible from your dashboard: 

You can also set up a bot to notify you when a transfer has taken place:
