# Groups vs DMs

> How Quickscope bot features differ between group chats and private messages

The Quickscope bot works in both group chats and private DMs, but the available features differ depending on context.

## Groups

Groups are where the social side of Quickscope lives. Scanning, leaderboards, and community features all happen here.

**What works in groups:**

* Scan and share tokens
* Trade buttons on scans
* Leaderboards and scan attribution
* Blast to multiple groups
* Admin controls (scan filters, display modes)

**Blocked in groups (for privacy):**

* `/positions` — shows your holdings
* `/settings` — personal configuration
* `/qwc` — wallet watchlist creation

<Tip>
  Use DMs for anything involving your wallet, positions, or personal settings.
</Tip>

## Private DMs

All commands work in private messages with the bot. DMs are the best place to:

* View and manage positions
* Configure settings
* Execute trades
* Access wallet and reward info

Social features like leaderboards and scan attribution are more useful in groups where others can see and interact.
