To start trading, simply paste a token address in your chat with Starbot, or forward a message containing a token address to it and Starbot will auto-detect the address. You can find addresses for your favorite ERC-20 (Ethereum) tokens from various sources, such as [www.coingecko.com](https://www.coingecko.com), [www.dextools.io](https://www.dextools.io), Telegram groups, X tweets, etc.
