# Scanning & Sharing

> Share tokens with your community and earn when others trade your scans

Scanning is the core social feature of Quickscope. When you scan a token to a Telegram chat, you're sharing it with your community–and earning rewards when they trade.

## What is Scanning?

**Scanning = sending a token to a Telegram chat.**

When you scan a token:

1. The token info appears in the chat
2. Anyone in the chat can see it and trade
3. If someone buys from your scan, you earn a share of their trading fees

This creates a viral loop where good calls spread naturally and scanners get rewarded for their alpha.

## How to Scan

### In Telegram

```
/scan [contract address]
/scan [token name]
$symbol
```

Just paste a contract address or type `/scan` followed by the token. The bot will post the token info to the chat.

### From the Web Terminal

You can scan tokens directly from the desktop terminal to any connected Telegram group:

1. Find a token on the web terminal
2. Click the **share/scan icon**
3. Select which group(s) to send the scan to
4. The scan posts to those groups instantly

This lets you share finds with your community without switching to Telegram.

### Blast to Multiple Groups

Use `/blast` to scan a token to multiple groups at once:

1. Set up your blast list with `/updateblastlist`
2. Select which groups to include
3. Use `/blast` when you want to share a token everywhere

<Tip>
  Use blast sparingly–spamming groups with low-quality scans will hurt your reputation.
</Tip>

## Scan Message Indicators

Each scan message includes inline icons that surface key token data at a glance.

### Token Info Row

### Launchpad Icons (Header)

The token header displays an icon for the launchpad it was created on:

| 🚀   | LaunchLab      |
| ☄️   | DBC            |

<Tip>
  The scan count indicator (👀 at the bottom of a scan) shows how many times that token has been scanned across Quickscope – a quick gauge of community interest.
</Tip>

## Scan Display Modes

Group admins can configure how scans appear:

| Mode                | Description                            |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| **Full**            | Complete token info with chart preview |
| **Mini Mode**       | Compact format, less screen space      |
| **Extra Mini Mode** | Single line, minimal info              |

Configure with:

* `/minimode on/off`
* `/extraminimode on/off`

## Scan Filters

Admins can filter what gets scanned:

| Setting        | Command                | Description                     |
| -------------- | ---------------------- | ------------------------------- |
| Enable/disable | `/scansallowed on/off` | Turn scanning on or off         |
| Min FDV        | `/minscanfdv [amount]` | Only show tokens above this FDV |
| Tweet scanning | `/scantweet on/off`    | Allow scanning from tweets      |

## How Scan Rewards Work

When someone trades from your scan, you earn a percentage of their trading fees:

| Level       | Rate | How it works                              |
| ----------- | ---- | ----------------------------------------- |
| **Level 1** | 20%  | You scan → someone in that chat buys      |
| **Level 2** | 7%   | They scan it forward → someone there buys |
| **Level 3** | 3%   | One more hop → someone buys               |

The attribution follows the scan chain. Your alpha can spread across multiple chats and you keep earning from each hop.

<Note>
  Quality matters more than quantity. Scans that lead to profitable trades build your reputation and earn more rewards over time.
</Note>
