REALLY?  Another month?  Dislike...  Next thing you know, it'll be 6 months, then extended to a year with 6 BTC prize.  Then all of a sudden, developer of sight disappears.  Should have left it at 2 months, that's a very long time already.  Or reward people every 15 days for 0.5BTC total.

Yeah, you can reward a lower amount if you make, for example, weekly rounds, instead of larger amounts for monthly rounds. People will feel more confident this way.

Hey,

sorry for unsettling you.

I can ensure you that this was and will be the only change of the first round on this scale. We tried to design it fairly by increasing the prize pool in the exact dimension as we increased the length of the round. And nope, our developers won't vanish, we guarantee that the prizes will be distributed shortly after the end of the first round.

Doing rounds on a weekly base would be a great thing for the participants, but I fear that the resulting overhead activities would then cripple our development.

PS: I was asked "are you analysing the behavior of users in order to generate trading strategies?" on several occasions now. I can also ensure you that we are not analysing our participants' behaviour just to create stressable trading techniques. This would heavily conflict with our understanding of trustworthiness.

Hello there!

Our bitcoin exchange game is getting more and more users, some players already could profile themselves as prospective winners (have a look at top 10 Ranking).

Furthermore, we are currently trying to make the game experience smoother. We do this by improving the notification system and increasing the update frequency of the trading chart. Also we are working on several slight changes that are supposed to increase the usability of our site. If you are desperately missing functions or features, just give us a shout over the feedback boxes.

Best regards and stay tuned.

[armodilloben]

Greetings,

we made small modifications to the Order Frontend to improve usability:

- The "search" button is renamed to "refresh" button, to adequately describe it's use.
- Order Limit fields now have the current Bid / Ask as initial value.
- Order Nominal will be cleared after placing an order.

Also, we are coming near to the 400 user landmark - thanks for all your feedback, we hope you enjoy the game!

Hello and a happy new year to all of you,
today we released the version 2.0 of our Bitcoin bootcamp. This release contains a major enhanvement: the achievements.
Achievements can be earned by every participant when he performs certain trading activities. For example, he can get achievements for:

• high trading volumes
• high trading frequencies
• high account balances
• good ranking positionings

Good thing: achievements are not only a great way to show your trading skills but also gives each participant a reward in EUR and Bitcoin in the Bitcoin exchange game.

We also are proud to announce that we reached 600 participants. Thereby 15% of all participants are still able to win real Bitcoin at the end of the first round on the 1st of March 2014.

Have fun trading!

[armodilloben]

We are proud to tell that we  reached over 700 participants! Also, our users seem to like the achievements. Why don't you give it a try?

[Sindelar1938]

Interesting concept
Will check it out sometime, at the very least good practice

[armodilloben]

Hello there!

we reached the 900 participants and there is still plenty of time (5 weeks) to trade until the prize of 1,5 Bitcoin will be distributed amongst the top 100 traders.

Have fun trading!

Would you be able to add the ability to toggle to USD view?

[armodilloben]

Hey devthedev,

I am sure we will add USD as currency, but this is going to take quite a while since we are a german and therefore european exchange game.

Best regards,

Ben

Greetings fellow traders,

the Bitcoin bootcamps engages another historical mark: one thousand participants.

There is still plenty of time left (a whole month) until our prizes will be distributed.

Have fun trading and good luck.

[armodilloben]

We hope you were able to use the current volatility of the Bitcoin exchange rate to increase your score and therefore your chance of winning.

New participants stream into our Bitcoin exchange game: At the beginning of February, the number of participants reached 1000! The increased number of participants resulted in a movement in the top 10 and nearly 3 weeks remain in the first round. The participant "Gordon Shumway" has moved forward within short time and has shown that in this game a proper strategy can lead to fast successes. Gordon Shunway was able to gather over 1000 Bitcoin and got the achievement "Trader's Wealth - V". He is the first participant who got all possible achievements.

We have decided to feature a "Crazy Giveaway" and he receives 0.01 Bitcoin as an instant bonus that can optionally be paid out in an alternative cryptocurrency. The future will bring further small rewards for different events which won't be announced in advance.

Last but not least we want to refer to the new logo that is displayed in the navigation bar. We hope you like the new design as much as we do. We are sure it rises the logo's recognition value significantly.

Good luck and have fun,

[armodilloben]

Hello there!

Our Bitcoin exchange game ended in round 1 last week and started today in the second round!

A few winners of the real Bitcoin prizes already withdrawed their won BTC - the winner cashed in about 160€ in real BTC for the first place.

Some Statistics:

Traded BTC: 944.496
Participants: 1.182
Place 1 could increase his starting capital by about 700%

The second round now offers you to join the fun and start heads up with the other participants. You will have three month to trade yourself in the top 100. The best 100 participants will receive real Bitcoin prizes at the end of the second round.

By the way: we have implemented a wallet on draglet.com, where your prizes will be transfered on. This might be an opportunity to store Bitcoin online in a safe environment.
