MunchCord Bot

The MunchCord Bot aims to be a multi-purpose bot that can add Ordinal/Inscription functionality to any discord server.

It is created by the Block Munchers team, for use in their community discord server but it's designed to be open to the whole community, we're in this together after all ✌️

The initial scope is to facilitate automated Role assignment based on proof of inscription ownership. Server admins can designate specific roles for combinations of inscriptions ids, usually entire collections are referenced to a single Role. Users can verify their ownership via BIP-322 signatures.

Adding the Bot

It's super easy, you dont need any tech, the Block Muncher team already host the bot. Just hit the following link to add it to your server:

👉 Invite Link 👈

That's it, you're good to go!

We've been careful to ensure we use as few permissions as possible, you won't find any Admin access requirements with this bot, all it requires is:

• Manage Role
• Send Messages
• Use Application Commands

Important Notes

If you see this:

You must ensure that RoleBot is higher in the priority list than the roles it assigns, simply drag it up the roles list.

This can also happen when you attempt to assign a role thats owned by another integration, such as server boost.

BIP-322 Verification Notes

The general premise from the server admin side, is to designate a specific Verify channel, and activate the bot with /channel-add.

This will show a persistent Verify message in the channel, new users simply click the button and begin the verification process.

You can add as many collections as you want, just call /collection-add to set up manual groups of inscriptions, or use /collection-marketplace to automagically grab the data from venues like Magic Eden.

Note Collections are channel specific: this allows you to have different setups for different groups of user.

Using a private channel

If you want to use the bot in a private channel, you must specifically add the MunchBot role to the private channel so that the bot can send messages. If not, you will see this message:
