Remove Tokens

There are three paths to remove a token. Pick whichever is closest to hand: the /remove command, the inline ❌ button on /detailed, or the deep link the ❌ button generates (handy if you want to share a “remove this” shortcut with yourself).

/remove <contract_address>

The direct path. Send:

/remove <contract_address>

Prysm detects the chain from the address, looks the token up on your watchlist, and removes it. You’ll see one of two confirmations.

In a DM:

✅ PEPE removed from your watchlist!

In a group:

✅ PEPE removed from group watchlist!

If the address isn’t in the watchlist Prysm replies with ❌ Token not found in your watchlist. (or ❌ Token not found in group watchlist.). If the address itself is invalid, you get ❌ Invalid token address or token not found.

Note

For EVM addresses, Prysm checks each EVM chain in parallel and removes the first match. If you happen to track the same address on multiple EVM chains and want to remove a specific one, use the inline ❌ button on /detailed — it carries the chain in the deep link, so there’s no ambiguity.

The inline ❌ button on /detailed

/detailed renders one card per token with a 🔔 (set alert) and ❌ (remove) emoji next to each name. Both are tappable.

1. Send /detailed.

2. Find the token you want to drop. Tap the ❌ next to its name.

3. Telegram opens the bot’s DM (or jumps to it if you’re already there) and the bot processes the removal. Back in the original chat, the /detailed message is edited in place to show your updated watchlist — no scrollback clutter.

If the watchlist is now empty, the message is replaced with a short prompt to add your first token.

The ❌ button is what makes multi-chain removal unambiguous: the button URL hard-codes the chain (remove_ETHEREUM_0x…, remove_BASE_0x…, etc.), so tapping ❌ on the Base row removes the Base entry even if you also track the same address on Ethereum.

The start?remove_… deep link

The ❌ button is just a Telegram deep link of the form:

https://t.me/<bot_username>?start=remove_<CHAIN>_<ADDRESS>

Two payload shapes are supported:

• remove_CHAIN_ADDRESS — removes from your personal watchlist.
• remove_CHAIN_ADDRESS_g-<chat_id> — removes from a specific group’s watchlist (this is what the ❌ button generates inside groups).

You don’t normally craft these by hand; the ❌ button does it for you. They’re documented here so the flow isn’t a black box.

For the group variant, the bot also posts a short notice back into the group:

✅ PEPE has been removed from the watchlist by Alice.

Personal vs group watchlists

The same three paths work in both contexts, but the target differs:

• In your DM with the bot, removal affects your personal watchlist only. Anyone else tracking the same token still has it.
• In a group, removal affects the group’s shared watchlist for the current topic (forum-mode groups track per-topic). Personal DM watchlists are untouched.

If a group runs in Silent Auto-Track mode, the typed /remove command is intentionally ignored — the group is curated by the bot, not by hand. Use /detailed and the ❌ button instead, or remove the token from your DM.

Tip

Forum topics: in a supergroup with topics enabled, the watchlist is scoped to the topic the message was sent in. Removing from one topic won’t affect another topic in the same group.

What happens to the token

Tokens in Prysm are shared records — many users and groups can point at the same one. When the last watcher drops a token, the bot automatically cleans it up: the token row, its price history, and any alerts attached to it are deleted. Until then, removing a token from your list has no effect on anyone else’s.

You don’t need to do anything to trigger this. It happens inline on every removal.
