HOW THE ARCADE WORKS / THE HOUSE RULES

Fictional market. Real decisions. GILL is a made-up Arcade coin. This game does not use the real $FISH price or send trades to a blockchain.

  1. Pick Calm Pond, Choppy Water or Shark Waters. Each three-minute round starts with $10,000 of separate virtual cash. Higher difficulty means more volatile paths, not a guaranteed opportunity to profit.
  2. Buy with 25%, 50% or 100% of your available cash, or sell that fraction of your GILL. Every trade includes a 0.30% virtual fee. The server determines the execution price; the chart refreshes every few seconds.
  3. The future path is fixed before you trade. It never changes in response to your buys or sells. The round clock keeps running if you leave the page, and returning resumes it.
  4. At the close, compare your cash plus marked holdings with a buy-and-hold benchmark. Both gains and losses count. A good exit deserves recognition, too.
  5. Replay your trades and share an optional card. Practice is unranked; the Weekly Catch has automatic cosmetic rewards. There are no cash or token prizes, paid entries, deposits, withdrawals or cash value. Your Live Tank balance stays separate.
  6. Up to 40 new rounds per UTC day, one active round at a time, and 90 trades per round with at least two seconds between trades. Your latest 20 finished rounds are retained for up to seven days; the shared replay capacity can remove older rounds sooner. Save a card if you want to keep it longer.

FOUR WAYS TO REMEMBER A ROUND.

FISH Moment
A sell followed by a buy at least 1% higher.
Better Bait
A sell followed by a buy at least 1% lower.
Clean Catch
Unreplaced sold GILL avoided a drop of at least 1% by the close.
Diamond Gills
Keeping a position through a 10% drawdown, ending with a profitable position and positive round return.

Badges use the server’s round evidence. They describe decisions, not a promise that holding or selling is always better.
