Can I Play with Real Money?

Yes. Players can choose to assign real-dollar value to the Bitcoin in-game. But, no actual money enters the game—it’s optional and for fun.

Example Scenario

Here’s how a real-money option could work with 4 players:

Players: Alex, Bella, Charlie, and Dana.

Total Bitcoins in Circulation: 210.

Real-Money Value per Bitcoin: $1.

Game End: The game ends when all 210 Bitcoins are in circulation.

Final Bitcoin Holdings:

Alex (Player A, winner): 100 Bitcoins.

Bella (Player B): 60 Bitcoins.

Charlie (Player C): 30 Bitcoins.

Dana (Player D): 20 Bitcoins.

End-of-Game Payouts

Each player calculates their payout difference based on the winner’s holdings (Alex).

Bella (60 Bitcoins): Owes Alex 40 Bitcoins → Pays $40.

Charlie (30 Bitcoins): Owes Alex 70 Bitcoins → Pays $70.

Dana (20 Bitcoins): Owes Alex 80 Bitcoins → Pays $80.

Final Summary:

Bella pays $40 to Alex.

Charlie pays $70 to Alex.

Dana pays $80 to Alex.

Alex ends up with $190 total as the winner.

This optional rule adds a new layer of strategy and realism to the game, making every decision even more exciting!
