### 5/5 — Monkey Swinging Bitcoin Game

*2026-03-06, version 2.01*

I’ve passively played this monkey flinging bitcoin game for years. Yes you win real satoshis. They are transferred to a separate app called ZBD which is a lightning network wallet. You win them by swinging a monkey off a vine and getting lucky with snagging silver or gold bitcoins out of thin air. 

When I first started back in 2023, you, silvers were 1 satoshis and  golds were 3. If you snagged a satoshis coin then you had to cash out immediately to avoid the bitcoin coins disappearing from the game on subsequent rounds before you cashed out. It was tedious but ad free and you could win  a jackpot randomly when cashing out of 1500 satoshis. I actually scored the jackpot once. 

Then things got kind of worse after some time away with excessive ads, smaller payouts for individual coins collected, and heavier throttles on satoshis you could cash out at once. You could collect as many coins as possible before cashing out and in a single round even (previously all coins disappeared as soon as one was picked up prior to a cash out), however ads were rampant and they would only let me cash out like 5 satoshis to my ZBD wallet a day despite racking up 50 every 30 mins of play. 

These days things are looking decent. The ads that pop up are minimal. You can pay to remove ads but that’s counterintuitive as hell so no thanks. You can still stack bitcoin endlessly and I have found the upper limit on daily cash out yet. I just collected 40 satoshis in 20 minutes and they all instantly transferred on the lightning network. A silver is 1 and a gold is 2. No jackpot but it’s easy to collect a bunch when you use your banana points to buy free power ups for each round. I just do the cheapo spring one for 60 bananas. It’s not as fun as a missile or bomb power up but that thing will keep you bouncing through and snagging bitcoin every round. 

Lately days are looking good for the monkey swinging bitcoin game.

### 1/5 — Needs improvements

*2025-02-18, version 1.46*

Wish you could get more than one coin at a time, but requesting tips sometimes locks up with no way to stop the request if it fails to connect and it doesn’t appear to have a time out period. Making you have shut down and restart each time. It been happening on both the WiFi and the cellular network, so I don’t believe it’s the connection causing this.

### 4/5 — Legit ZBD Game

*2024-08-16, version 1.45*

Summary: The game is fun and pays out to your ZBD wallet. In-depth Description: I will say as someone who’s been playing games for Satoshi across different platforms, this game isn’t the major money maker of the handful of legit games that pay on iOS, but the gameplay is fun and does pay you consistently when you achieve tips. The tips however other than possible bonuses like collecting all the letters in “SaruTobi” for instance which may or may not be linked to being awarded satoshi are the only ways I’ve found to actually get payouts. This is slightly tedious, due to each attempt being completely random and you never know what your going to hit after launch. So with all that said, and like I said “this isn’t the major money maker your looking. However, give it a try. SaruTobi is a great game to pass the time with added benefits.

### 1/5 — I really wanted to like this

*2024-08-12, version 1.45*

When I came across this game and saw that I could earn sats that could be deposited in my ZBD account I downloaded it!  I was so excited.  But, unfortunately I keep getting a message saying it cannot verify my device.  I can’t access the power ups I earned from spinning the wheel.  I’m not sure how I can purchase power ups. I don’t know if I have to unlock something to be able to use the power ups I win.  Super frustrated and super disappointed.  Please fix! I would love to play again.

### 5/5 — Monkey

*2023-07-30, version 1.43*

Like the game

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2023-07-25, version 1.43*

Be prepared to sit through an ad every time you earn a coin. Totally not worth it.

### 1/5 — Keeps crashing on me when i get bananas

*2023-04-28, version 1.40*

This game keeps crashing on me when i get bananas and it takes bananas away from me. I complete the tasks and it doesn’t reward me. Needs work

*2023-04-04, version 1.39*

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2022-10-20, version 1.34*

This game used to be a fun way to grab some sats, but they recently added annoying pop-up ads that totally ruined the game for me.

### 2/5 — Zebedee login fail

*2022-09-11, version 1.33*

The app fails to complete the login procedure via Zebedee app, a notification about successful login appears, but Zebedee account is not connected.
