The cryptocurrency market has lost a bit of intensity, which we can attribute to certain difficulty changes, significant increases in electricity costs, and of course, the lack of "storms" that push Bitcoin's value to five digits again. A fairly common recommendation to participate in this strange world and minimize investments at the same time is buying cryptocurrencies directly, but if you still have doubts, you can train with Bitcoin Flip, a crypto market simulator that gives you $5,000 in virtual dollars, and dozens of options trading in real time.

Bitcoin Flip: A Simulator to Buy and Sell Cryptocurrencies
Bitcoin Flip

Users who retain some firepower and have access to cheap electricity can earn some extra money through mining, as long as they choose the right cryptocurrency. On the Web we can find resources like CryptUnit that allow us to calculate daily earnings based on available hardware and the natural difficulty of each coin, but we must take it with a grain of salt for several reasons, starting with its lack of data on electricity usage. However, there is a simpler way to enter the cryptocurrency market, and that is making a purchase on a reliable exchange, but before committing any sum... why not turn the entire process into a game?

Bitcoin Flip: A Simulator to Buy and Sell Cryptocurrencies
Bitcoin Flip presents 24 different investment options. Maybe one of them will make you a virtual millionaire...

That is what Bitcoin Flip proposes. This simulated market enables a maximum of $5,000, and a total of 24 cryptocurrencies in which we can invest immediately. The game also has a very important educational component, since it includes a general description of each cryptocurrency, and which are its most relevant characteristics (fixed number of units, goals, and more). The charts are generated in real time following the exact quotation of the coins, and at the bottom we will find a pie chart that reveals the buying and selling trend of the players.

The fact of evaluating real-time quotations makes Bitcoin Flip a particularly slow game, but you can save your progress if you approve the use of a Facebook account as login. The alternative is to download a copy for iOS or Android (still must receive approval from Google). How did I do? Very badly, of course. Speculation is not my forte, but the scoreboard indicates that some players made millions of virtual dollars...
