Crypto listing alerts on Telegram
Telegram is the simplest way to follow new crypto listings: join a channel and your phone rings when an exchange announces a listing. Our free public channel @CLWfeed posts listing, delisting and other announcements from Binance, Upbit, Bithumb and Robinhood as they are detected. This guide explains how Telegram listing alerts work, how to set up notifications so you do not miss one, and where Telegram stops being the right tool.
How Telegram listing alerts work
Every Telegram listing alert, ours included, goes through the same three steps:
- An exchange publishes an announcement on its official notice board: a new spot or futures listing, a delisting, a Monitoring Tag, a HODLer Airdrop, a caution release.
- The alert service picks it up, extracts the ticker and the type of announcement and posts a short message to its channel.
- Telegram delivers the post to every member, and your phone shows it as a push notification if the channel is not muted.
The first two steps depend on the alert service; the last one depends on Telegram and on your phone. Many channels and bots, including open-source listing bots on GitHub, repost what they find on exchange announcement pages or social accounts, so their speed varies a lot. For a person watching the market, that is usually fine. A trading bot should read the same events from a structured feed instead.
The free channel: @CLWfeed
@CLWfeed is free and public: anyone can join, no key or sign-up needed. It posts the announcements detected by the CryptoListing.ws feed:
- Binance — spot and futures listings, delistings, HODLer Airdrops and Monitoring Tag notices.
- Upbit — new KRW-market listings, caution releases (유의종목 지정 해제) and delistings.
- Bithumb — new listings, caution releases and delistings.
- Robinhood — Robinhood Listing (not tradable yet on Robinhood) and Robinhood Live (tradable on Robinhood).
Every announcement also gets its own page — with a price chart for Binance, Upbit and Bithumb: browse them on latest listings. To see how prices typically moved after each type of announcement, read the listing price reaction statistics.
Telegram channel or WebSocket API?
The channel and the API carry the same announcements. What differs is who reads them.
| Telegram channel | WebSocket API | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | People watching the market | Trading bots, dashboards and alert systems |
| Format | A short text message for humans | Structured JSON: ticker, type, exchange, title, timestamps |
| Delivery | Through Telegram, then a push notification on your device | A persistent connection straight to your program |
| Filtering | Everything the channel posts | By exchange with ?cex=, by type in your code |
| Access | Free, no sign-up | Free test keys and paid tiers, see pricing |
The limits of Telegram for listing alerts
Telegram is a messaging app, not a data feed. Keep these limits in mind:
- Delivery timing is not guaranteed. Telegram's servers, your phone's battery saver, Focus or Do Not Disturb modes and a weak connection can all hold a notification back.
- Messages are written for people. A program would have to parse the text, and the wording can change.
- No filters. You receive everything the channel posts, or you mute it.
- No precise timing. Telegram shows the time of a post to the minute; WebSocket messages carry microsecond-precision detection and dispatch timestamps you can measure against.
A bot that reads a Telegram channel, or scrapes it, inherits all of these limits plus Telegram's own rate limits. If a program has to act on an announcement, connect it to the WebSocket API instead.
How to set up Telegram notifications for listing alerts
A few settings make the difference between seeing an alert right away and finding it hours later:
- Open telegram.me/CLWfeed and tap Join.
- Tap the channel name at the top and make sure Notifications are on — the channel must not be muted.
- In the same menu, choose a distinct sound for the channel so you can recognise a listing alert without looking.
- In Settings → Notifications and Sounds → Channels, check that channel notifications are enabled; if you mute channels in general, add @CLWfeed as an exception.
- Allow Telegram notifications in your phone's settings and let them through Focus or Do Not Disturb modes; on Android, exclude Telegram from battery optimisation.
- Pin the channel at the top of your chat list so new posts stay visible.
On a computer, Telegram Desktop shows the same notifications when it is running. Remember that Telegram delivers push notifications through Apple and Google, so the moment an alert appears on your lock screen also depends on your phone.
Alerts by exchange
Each exchange has its own page explaining what it announces and how to receive it: Binance listing alerts, Upbit listing alerts, Bithumb listing alerts and Robinhood listing alerts. For removals, see the crypto delisting alerts overview and the Upbit, Bithumb and Binance delisting pages.
Avoid fake listing channels
Scammers copy the names and logos of popular alert channels. The only CryptoListing.ws channel is @CLWfeed, linked from every page of this site. We never ask for a seed phrase, a private key, exchange API keys with withdrawal rights or a deposit to “unlock” signals, and we never promise profits. Treat any channel that offers guaranteed gains or paid “pre-listing” tips as a red flag.
Get WebSocket API access on Telegram
Telegram is also how you get programmatic access: message us at @CLWfeed to request a WebSocket API key. See pricing & tiers for the SpeedTrial, FreeDelayed, Basic and Premium tiers.
FAQ
Is the Telegram listing alert channel free?
Yes — following the public Telegram channel @CLWfeed is free. It posts real-time listing announcements for Binance, Upbit, Bithumb and Robinhood. For machine-readable delivery to a trading bot, use the WebSocket API: the Premium tier adds no delay, and the free SpeedTrial tier lets you benchmark the pipeline first.
Which exchanges does the Telegram channel cover?
Binance (spot/futures listings, delistings, HODLer airdrops, Monitoring Tag), plus Upbit and Bithumb KRW-market listings, caution releases and spot delistings, and Robinhood (Robinhood Listing and Robinhood Live events).
Why did I not get a notification for a listing?
Usually because the channel is muted, channel notifications are disabled in Telegram settings, or your phone held the notification back in a Focus, Do Not Disturb or battery-saving mode. Open the channel to check that the post is there, then review the notification settings described on this page.
Is a Telegram listing alert fast enough for trading?
For a person, a Telegram alert is a quick way to learn about an announcement. For automated trading it is not the right tool: delivery depends on Telegram and on your phone, and the message has to be parsed. Trading bots should use the WebSocket API, which delivers each announcement as structured JSON with precise timestamps.
Telegram alerts vs the WebSocket API — which should I use?
Telegram is great for humans watching the market. For automated trading bots that need the fastest, structured (JSON) delivery with microsecond timestamps, use the WebSocket API — it is built for machine-to-machine speed.
How do I get a WebSocket API key?
Message @CLWfeed on Telegram to request access. The same key works on the Tokyo and Seoul endpoints. See the pricing page for plan details.
