# Clone your own customized Crimson.

**Did you know?**\
\
You can clone Crimson to your own customized bot.

**How to do that?**

1. DM @BotFather and create a bot using the /newbot command.
2. After setting up everything Botfather will reply with a message that contains an API - DO NOT SHARE THE API WITH ANYONE!
3. Forward the message to the @Crimsonguardbot and it will automatically clone it.
4. Congrats ! Your new bot will now act as Crimson.

**After you create your own customized Crimson fork, this Clone will be able to get added or configured only by you unless you Whitelist other users.**\
