Four games about money.
You can run the Federal Reserve for ten years, manage a community bank from the S&L crisis to the GENIUS Act, pack Bitcoin transactions into a block, or walk the whole history of Bitcoin one landmark at a time. Each game runs in your browser with nothing to install. The games load no scripts and keep nothing about you.
Money Printer
You are the Federal Reserve, and the currency is backed by nothing. Forty quarters to keep inflation and unemployment inside the mandate while Congress, presidents, and the bond market make it hard. When the term ends you get one more lever: back the dollar with Bitcoin, and see what the numbers do over the next thirty years.
Run Your Own Bank
Manage a community bank from 1980 to 2029, through the S&L crisis, Riegle-Neal, 2008, near-zero rates, 2023, and the GENIUS Act. Every decision hits a real balance sheet, and the examiners are watching your capital ratio.
The Bitcoin Trail
Travel from the genesis block to the present day. Each landmark is a real moment in Bitcoin history and each event is a story you can survive or not, with the sources footnoted. It is the largest game here, with a daily seeded run, a codex, mini-games, and endings you have to earn.
Mempool Drop
Transactions fall into the block, each with a size and a fee rate. Clear a row to confirm those transactions and bank their fees, and watch the 4,000,000 weight-unit ceiling, because a full block is the only thing that pays.
How to read these
These are games, not advice or forecasts. The historical events in Run Your Own Bank and The Bitcoin Trail are dated and sourced as carefully as we could manage. The future in Money Printer is invented, and its thirty-year Bitcoin projection runs three scenarios, one of which loses. If you spot an error, tell us and we will fix it.
If you want the serious versions, the Tools page has four open models built on call-report data.
Build with Galoy
Banks that hold Bitcoin need a core built for it. Galoy engineers technology for leaders who are redefining money and banking.
