In this section, you’ll find explanations for common error messages you might encounter while using Bitfoot, along with guidance on what they mean and how to resolve them.
Description: This error occurs when there aren’t enough funds in your wallet to complete the swap.
Solution: Check your wallet balance to ensure you have enough SOL (or ETH depending on network you trade on) to cover both the swap amount and any associated fees. Add more funds if needed, or lower the swap amount.
Description: This message appears when the bot tries to sell a token that wasn’t bought through copy trading with the specified target wallet.
Solution: This error is usually due to a missing initial buy transaction. To resolve this, ensure you have correctly set up the copy trading settings to follow all buys and sells from the target wallet. If you missed the initial buy, you can ignore this message.
Description: This generic error message indicates that the transaction failed. Clicking the Solscan link provides more details.
Solution: Visit the linked Solscan transaction to review specific reasons for the failure. Common causes include network congestion, insufficient network fees, or low liquidity for the token. You need to check wallet balance to make sure you have enough funds and you may need to increase your priority/tip fee and slippage.
Description: This error appears when no wallet has been selected for executing copy trades in the Bitfoot settings. Without an assigned wallet, the bot cannot complete the copy trade.
Solution:
Go to Copytrade Settings in the Bitfoot bot.
Ensure that you have selected a wallet to use for copy trading. If you haven't added a wallet yet, add one and then select it as your copy trading wallet.
Once a wallet is assigned, the bot will be able to perform copy trades successfully.
Description: This error typically occurs when the transaction fails during the initial estimation phase, often due to low funds on your wallet.
Solution: Check that you have sufficient funds in your wallet for transactions, network fees, and priority/tip fees.
Description: This error typically occurs when the transaction fails during the initial estimation phase, often due to low funds on your wallet.
Solution: Check that you have sufficient funds in your wallet for transactions, network fees, and priority/tip fees.
Insufficient SOL for Fees: Many of these errors can be avoided by ensuring your wallet has sufficient SOL to cover transaction fees.
Use Moderate Slippage: High slippage can sometimes cause transactions to fail or result in unexpected prices. Adjust your slippage tolerance carefully based on the token’s volatility.
Network Congestion: If errors continue, the Solana network may be experiencing high traffic. Try your transaction again later.
By following these solutions, you can resolve most common errors and keep your copy trading running smoothly on Bitfoot. If you encounter persistent issues, feel free to reach out to our support team.
