Earning Free Bitcoin, BNB and Matic through RollerCoin (2022 Review) Part 3 And Final!
This is a continuation from my previous posts so if you want to start at the beginning go to the links at the end of the article.
What Coins Can I Mine Through the Game?
Rollercoin currently lets you mine Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), Binance Coin (BNB), Polygon (Matic) and the games cryptocurrency, RollerToken (RLT).
You can choose to mine all the coins at once, or concentrate your power onto a single coin.
To change which coin you would like to mine, you have to select “split power” under the “My power” tab. From there you can allocate your choice of percentages between BTC, ETH, DOGE, BNB and RLT.
Before being able to withdraw out of the game, a user must first have reached the minimum withdrawal limit
- Min withdrawal (BTC) 0.0001 (= 10,000 Satoshi).
- Min withdrawal (DOGE): 30
- Min withdrawal (ETH): 0.008.
At this stage you can’t withdraw Binance Coin or Roller Tokens.
Inventory
In July 2020, the Rollercoin team released the Inventory feature. This opens up a lot for possibilities in the future including the marketplace! (see Upcoming Plans further down). The inventory feature lets you:
- Purchase an unlimited amount of miners (previously you could only buy what you had space for)
- Replace old miners
- Organise your room more.
At this stage, you are still not able to sell miners. The ability to sell miners should be live when the marketplace feature has been setup.
Marketplace Release
The team have released a blog article on the soon to be released marketplace. The article provides heaps of information about what to expect and when things will be released. Here is a quick rundown:
- The marketplace will allow players to buy and sell in game items in RLT / BTC /ETH
- The marketplace is expected to be released at the start of Season 4
- Players will be able to farm drops from playing games
The new marketplace to be released soon
Electricity
Each 5 days you have to log into the game to recharge your electricity. If you don’t recharge your electricity, your miners will stop producing power. It doesn’t cost anything to recharge, you just have to log in and click the “recharge” button.
What is a RollerToken?
The RollerCoin team have introduced their own cryptocurrency token RLT (Rollertoken) into the game, which can be mined, and used to purchase some of the higher end mining machines.
The tokens will be used for transactions within the game and will fund the RollerCoin economy. The total RollerToken supply is set at 21,000,000 RollerTokens (RLT).
What Can I do with a RollerToken?
It is expected that later on, the RollerToken will allow you to pay electricity bills, purchase items and equipment through the marketplace, buy upgrades and bonuses, and even purchase adds within the game.
Currently it is only possible to purchase miners and upgrades for the season pass using RLT.
What is a RollerToken worth?
On February 25 2021, the RollerToken was pegged to USDt, with the fixed price being 1 RollerToken = 1 USDT. Before the update, RLT was set at 2000 Satoshi.
Pegging RLT to USDT will mean that the RLT token is more stable, reliable and independent of the growth (or decline) in cryptocurrency. This means that RLT will not get more expensive when BTC decides to shoot to the moon.
There is currently no way to withdraw or convert RLT to USDt from within the game.
However, when the marketplace is released, there will be an option to sell miners (previously purchased with RLT) for BTC and ETH.
The introduction of seasons and Season Passes
The summer of 2021 saw one of the biggest updates to the game — the introduction of seasons, and a Season Pass.
What the team have done, is introduce a 60 day season, where players can obtain experience to unlock various rewards.
It works like a ladder system, where you need to gain experience (XP) to unlock various rewards. Rewards include miners, racks, RLT, and bonus power.
To climb the ladder you need to earn XP. There are multiple ways of doing so, including:
- login each day
- completing various tasks such as playing a certain amount of games, visiting some social media pages, or watching a video on YouTube
- completing all the weekly tasks
Weekly XP tasks are refreshed after every 7 days, so anything not completed will be wiped clean each week.
And to unlock those exclusive miners, you need to purchase an event pass.
What is the Season Pass?
The event pass provides access to all the rewards including exclusive miners, trophies and other things. You do not have to purchase the event pass to participate in the event. The pass is only there for the exclusive rewards.
In season 1 there were 20 levels which consist of 100 XP each. So, by doing math, you would need 2,000 XP to finish the event.
Season Pass Levels (Season 1)
If you unlock the season pass, you still have to complete the XP to unlock the exclusive rewards. That is, unless you want to pay additional RLT and unlock everything at once.
To get all the rewards instantly, you would need to pay an additional 199.99 RLT on top of the Event Pass which cost 149.99 RLT. So in total about 350 RLT to unlock all the rewards without doing anything.
But wait, there is more. The player can spend more RLT to obtain all the rewards up to 5 times. Each time you want to obtain all the rewards again, the price increased. The price progression:
- 150 RLT (Event Pass purchase)
- 200 RLT (Claim all Rewards)
- 400 RLT (Claim all Rewards again)
- 450 RLT (Claim all rewards again X2)
- 500 RLT (Claim all rewards again X3)
- 550 RLT (Claim all rewards again X4)
- 600 RLT (Claim all rewards again X5).
Season 1: Perfection
The Event Pass in Season 1 costs 149 RLT. If you purchase that, you have access to the exclusive miners “The Glimpse”, “Prisma”, “Aurum” and “Perfection”. These vary in power between 50,000 and 400,000 Gh/s. In total you can earn 35 RLT from completing the event.
The perfection miner series will only be earned through the event, and is not sold in the shop. In total the exclusive miners will provide an increase of 6.5% of your mining power.
XP Experience Gain (Season 1)
If you were to do every task possible, you would earn yourself 250 XP each week. This means that you would need to not miss a week for 8 weeks straight to earn the 2,000 XP Here is the breakdown
Daily Bonus — Each day you log in you are rewarded with XP. If you log in each day of the week, you would earn 100 XP.
Weekly Bonus — If you complete all weekly tasks, you will be rewarded with 150 XP
Season 2: Dark Star
The Event Pass in Season 2 costs 200 RLT. If you purchase that, you have access to the exclusive miners “Photon”, “Paradox”, “Anti-Phaze”, “Gravity” and “Singularity”. These vary in power between 125,000 and 1,000,000 Gh/s.
If you want to unlock all of the rewards at the start without completing any quests or gain any XP, it will cost 800 RLT.
The dark star miner series can only be gained through the event. By grabbing a complete set of the Dark Star™ Miners series, you get +15% to your total mining power!
Bonus Gh/s from miners
Each unlocked miner now provides a certain Gh/s percentage boost to help you along in the game. It encourages you to collect each of the miners, and will be one of reasons demand will be high on the marketplace.
The more rarer the miner, the higher the bonus %.
Season 3 will be released int he next two weeks so start here.
Loot-boxes
One of the newest additions that arrived with Season 2, was the loot-box functionality.
Basically it works like a lottery system, where you pay for a certain box, and you have the chance of being rewarded with various unique miners.
The chances for each of the rewards in the loot-boxes are listed below:
Rollertoken Crowd-sale
RollerCoin had their Crowd-sale for the RollerToken, with the first round offering 2,000,000 coins.
The basic token price was 0.00002 BTC per RollerToken. As it’s the first round of the Crowd-sale, coins were sold at a 20% discount.
This means that for the first round:
1 RollerToken = 0.000016 BTC
As with many Crowd-sales, there were rewards for investing. These rewards included:
- Lifetime investor status (plus a special reward)
- Limited miner(s)
- Limited locations
- Limited boosters and items
- Brand merchandise
- RollerCoin board of fame (with weblinks).
The Rollercoin Crowdlending Manifesto can be found here.
Crowd-sale Timeline
The Crowd-sale campaign started in October 2019. The following list is a planned timeline for future improvements and updated:
- October 2019 — the Crowd-sale campaign starts
- December 2019 to February 2020–5 new minigames, rewards system upgrade, new items
- February to April 2020 — Marketplace rollout, beta version of mobile application
- April to June 2020–10 new mini-games, marketplace for mini-games
- June-August 2020 — Game scaling, ability to expand in-game space.
Rollercoin Upcoming Features (Future Plans)
The RollerCoin team have hinted at a few exciting updates over the next year, including:
- More mini-games
- Equipment upgrades (i.e. virtual miners), locations, bonuses and loot boxes
- A marketplace for trading in-game items
- Updated network, including public profiles, chats, forums and social media integration
- Game location customisation — i.e. furnish your house and expand facilities
- A mobile application
- Maps and game worlds — being able to invest in real estate, change locations, buy new buildings and even rent out those buildings.
- Adding a new coin to mine for each new season
- NFT mining
- Season 3 will see games now providing random drops. The items from the drop boxes will allow you to join miners together to create even better ones!
There are a few ways that you are able to generate the most points for your time spent. However, it comes down to the games that you are best at.
For example, I play a lot of the Cryptonoid. I can usually earn ~1200 points within 30 seconds (i.e. half the time still on the timer). I would be able to complete two of the games (~3000pts) in the same time that I could finish one round of coinclick , flappy rocket, crypto hamster or cryptonoid (600–900 points).
What is also important to note, is that the more you play one game, the harder (and more points) that will be available the next time you play. To maximise points, you want to get this difficulty to the maximum as soon as possible.
This strategy is more efficient than playing
One useful tip with the memory is to go through from top left to right, turning over each of the cards. As they show up, say the letter / name / a descriptive feature out aloud and move on.
Utilise the points and the games that you are best at.
Referral Program
As with most games, there is also a referral program. When joining from a referral link, the referrer will get a percentage of the combined income of each user that has been referred to the platform. The commission is calculated each day for activities on the previous day. The satoshi is transferred to your in-game balance. Everyone that you refer gets a nice 1000 Satoshi as a starting bonus!
RollerCoin Review
RollerCoin is a fun little game that can earn you a few satoshi here and there, however, it’s not going to make you a bitcoin overnight, unless your smashing games out every waking hour.
What I like about this game it is that the player is able to climb the ladder quickly. It doesn’t matter if you started last year or last week, you still have the same chance of getting into the top 1% in the game (I easily moved into the top 2% of players in the game within 24 hours of playing).
It’s much more efficient to gain Gh/s through the mini-games, however, this only lasts for a certain time. That means that someone who has given up on the game drops down the leader board very quickly.
You can get caught up playing 500 minigames a day just to earn a couple of thousand satoshis — that’s less than $1 USD for your time. Not a great payback. However, if you invest your satoshi in the virtual miners, you should be able to double your satoshi every 7 years (assuming the token amount is always comparable to total pool power). This would then equate to a cool 40% a year in returns.
I am also really excited to see the new updates being released over the next year. It looks like they will bring a lot of new gameplay and experiences to the game. Having a few miners, or understanding of the game could be beneficial when all of the new updates roll in!
