# How to use Expert Mode?

Expert Mode lets you decide how your Autoclaim reward is distributed. You assign 100% of your Pool Weight across one or more coins.

If you put 100% on one coin, the whole Pool Weight is concentrated on that coin instead of being split across several coins.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Expert Mode uses DUTCHY every 5 minutes. The cost is: **Pool Weight × 5 DUTCHY × reward multiplier**. A higher Pool Weight increases both the cost and the rewards.
{% endhint %}

### Open the Autoclaim setup

Go to the [dashboard](https://autofaucet.dutchycorp.space/dashboard.php), then click **Start Autoclaim**.

### Select Expert Mode

Under **Autoclaim Type**, select **Expert Mode**.

Choose how the Autoclaim should run:

* **Page Refresh** refreshes the page every 5 minutes.
* **In-Page** claims without reloading, but the tab must stay open and focused.

Then choose your reward multiplier and click **Next**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Multipliers from 1x to 5x are available to everyone. 6x requires level 300 or Platinum, and 7x requires level 400 or Platinum.
{% endhint %}

### Choose a preset

The easiest way to start is to use a default preset.

Select a preset from the list, then click **Load**. The **Allocated** value must show **100%** before you can continue.

{% hint style="info" %}
A preset decides which coins receive the Pool Weight and how the 100% is divided between them.
{% endhint %}

Here is a quick overview of the default presets:

* **EVM Coins** — coins that use an EVM-compatible network.
* **Layer 1 / Layer 2** — coins grouped by blockchain layer.
* **Memecoins** — meme-focused coins.
* **Space Token Ecosystem / SpaceStake Ecosystem** — coins from these ecosystems.
* **Top 100 / Top 100 by Market Cap** — supported top-ranked coins, with equal or market-cap-based weights.
* **Top Gainers / Top Losers** — supported coins based on market performance over 24 hours or 7 days.

{% hint style="info" %}
Preset availability can change as supported coins evolve. Dynamic and Market Cap presets are refreshed every two hours.
{% endhint %}

### Adjust the Pool Weight

Use the **Pool Weight** slider to choose the total reward strength.

* A lower Pool Weight costs less DUTCHY and gives lower rewards.
* A higher Pool Weight costs more DUTCHY and gives higher rewards.
* Changing Pool Weight does not change the percentages inside your preset.

<figure><img src="https://1705162524-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FBybwDAlAELVZdlgtdcIp%2Fuploads%2FCkAzuFujMxn9bxqUQ9r7%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=a379a424-b9a5-46c1-a13e-55034df20787" alt=""><figcaption><p>Move the slider to adjust the total Pool Weight.</p></figcaption></figure>

For example, with Pool Weight 10, a coin with 100% weight gets the full 10x effective coin multiplier before your selected reward multiplier and bonuses are applied.

### Optional: create your own preset

Create a custom preset when you want to choose the coins and percentages yourself.

1. Use the **slider**, **−**, or **+** on each coin row to set its weight.
2. Watch the colored allocation bar while you edit. Each color represents one weighted coin.
3. Keep adjusting the weights until **Allocated** reaches **100%** and turns green.
4. Click **Save New**.
5. Enter a preset name.
6. Optionally enable **Market Cap Based**.
7. Click **Confirm**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Default presets cannot be edited directly. Load one, change the weights, then use **Save New** to create your own version. You can update or delete presets that you created.
{% endhint %}

Market Cap Based presets keep the coins you selected and automatically recalculate their weights every two hours.

### Review and start

Click **Next** and check the refresh type, multiplier, preset, number of weighted coins, cost, and estimated duration.

<figure><img src="https://1705162524-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FBybwDAlAELVZdlgtdcIp%2Fuploads%2FgnoI8o16GtPLL3NeBe40%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=52b2eaa7-8489-4259-adad-5e61e605411b" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Complete the captcha, then click **Start Autoclaim**.

{% hint style="success" %}
Expert Mode keeps using your saved preset until you return to the Autoclaim settings and choose another configuration.
{% endhint %}
