🐒🔥 Hot Take: You Can Now Earn Real Bitcoin by Yeeting a Monkey — Welcome Back, SaruTobi

[cryptoenthusiast]

Alright, fam — fire up your iPhones and dust off your banana-collecting reflexes, because SaruTobi is back on the App Store, and this time… it brought real Bitcoin with it. 🟠

Yes, the OG monkey-flinging game that once got banned for being too Bitcoin for Apple has made a glorious comeback, nearly a decade later. And this time, Apple’s finally cool with sats flying through the jungle.
So What Is SaruTobi?

It’s simple:
You swing a monkey through the air like a vine-slinging lunatic, grab bananas, pick up power-ups (rockets!), and launch yourself as far as possible. That’s it. No lore, no loot boxes, no NFT cringe. Just vibes.

Think: Flappy Bird meets Donkey Kong meets “wait... did I just earn Bitcoin?”

Why It Was Banned

Back in 2015, Apple gave it the boot because it included real Bitcoin payouts, which at the time were basically forbidden fruit .

The devs tried to sneak around with “in-game Bitcoin,” but even that was too spicy for Apple, who feared people would confuse it with the real thing (which, to be fair, they probably did).
️ Now With Real Sats Thanks to Lightning

Fast forward to now:
SaruTobi is the first-ever game on iOS to get Apple’s blessing for Bitcoin microtransactions, powered by ZBD’s Lightning Network tech.

You can earn sats just by playing.

Spend sats on in-game goodies like skins or power-ups.

Or just withdraw to your ZBD wallet — instantly, no minimums. Even a few cents worth of Bitcoin is fair game.

The banana economy just got real.
🧠 Should You Play It?

Let’s be real — it’s not Elden Ring.
But for what it is? It’s dumb fun with a little sprinkle of “omg I earned sats!” magic.

And honestly, it’s kind of a huge deal that Apple greenlit this. It might just open the door for more Lightning-enabled mobile games in the near future.
🧵 TL;DR:

🐵 Sling monkey.

🍌 Collect bananas.

💥 Hit rockets.

⚡️ Earn sats.

📲 Withdraw Bitcoin in real time.

You’re not gonna retire off SaruTobi, but it’s a small W for mobile gaming and a big W for Bitcoin adoption.

Now excuse me while I see how far I can yeet this monkey.
