Getting started
Everything you need to survive the market — in about five minutes of reading.
BAGGS is a fast multiplayer market game. You join a short match, get fictional cash, trade a handful of simulated token markets as they pump, dump and rug — and try to finish with more than everyone else.
WARNING
Fictional money only. No real crypto, no deposits, no withdrawals, no real-money winnings. The markets are game simulations.
At the bell, your cash counts, and every open position counts at its final market value. Players are placed #1, #2, #3… by total portfolio.
In Ranked, your placement changes your MMR. Everywhere else it's for glory, XP and bragging rights. Everyone also gets a cosmetic match title (think PAPER HANDS, DIAMOND HANDS or EXIT LIQUIDITY) describing how they played.
Gameplay
BAGGS doesn't use token prices. Every market is a multiplier that starts at exactly 1.00x when the market opens:
Markets move on their own. The BAGGS market engine drives them with trends, volatility, pumps, dumps, reversals, recoveries and market events — each token with its own personality. You're reacting to the market, not drawing the candles yourself.
Pick a market, then use the quick buttons (20% · 40% · 60% · 80% · MAX) or type a custom dollar amount. Quick buttons execute instantly. Buy percentages are of your current cash; sell percentages are of your current position in that market.
EXAMPLE
Cash $10,000 → BUY 40% → $4,000 goes into the market, $6,000 stays as cash.
Position worth $5,000 → SELL 40% → about $2,000 back to cash, about $3,000 stays in.
SELL MAX closes the whole position.
RULE
What you see is what you get. Every trade fills at the current multiplier on your screen. No hidden fees, no spread, no slippage, no price impact. If your position shows $12,400 and you sell it all, you get $12,400 (give or take a cent of rounding, or a tick if the market moved as you clicked).
The smallest order is $1. Selling a whole position is always allowed.
On a computer, every quick button and signal has a key (shown in the button's corner). A key does exactly what a click does; it does nothing while you type an amount or while a window is open.
Portfolio = cash + current value of every open position
PnL = portfolio − starting cash
EXAMPLE
Start $10,000. Portfolio now $12,500 → PnL +$2,500. Green is profit, red is loss.
Buy $4,000 at 1.00x; if that market later reaches 1.50x, the position is worth about $6,000.
LIVE PNL shows how everyone in the match currently stands. Your row is highlighted.
Markets get news: whales accumulating, KOL threads, listing rumors, dev wallets moving, exploits, viral moments, market-wide euphoria or panic. Events can pump, dump, reverse, break out or rug a market — that's the game.
Some are telegraphed: a LISTING RUMOR is always followed later by a confirmation or a denial, and a moved dev wallet may get a team statement. Others hit without warning. There are no guaranteed outcomes.
Players can also send quick signals — SEND IT, BUY THE DIP, HOLD, I'M OUT… These are chatter only and never move a market.
Every match lasts 02:00 of open market. TIME LEFT counts down, and the orange line under the header shrinks with it. Before the market opens (role pick, countdown) the clock doesn't run.
At 00:00 trading stops and final portfolios are valued. There is no extra trading period.
Each match draws 4 different markets from the active BAGGS token pool — a balanced mix of calmer and wilder markets. Tokens are fictional BAGGS markets, and some slots may carry a sponsored brand. Either way, every market is a game simulation (see Sponsored tokens).
Game modes
Friendly lobbies have a 6-character code like A7K2Q9. Enter it on the Hub's JOIN LOBBY tab (or open the invite link). The code only identifies the room — it isn't a password, so share it with the people you want to play with.
Signed-in players also see open Ranked lobbies near their rank on the JOIN LOBBY tab.
GUESTS CAN
GUESTS CAN'T
A guest session lasts about 12 hours. Create a free account to keep future progress — guest matches don't count retroactively.
Roles
Before the market opens, each player gets one role with one ability. Roles don't change your starting cash — they're moments of advantage, not permanent stat boosts. All role effects end at the bell.
You know before everyone else.
A few seconds (5–8 s) before a significant market event goes public, you get a private leak: the market, the likely direction, roughly when it hits, and how confident the tip is. It is passive — nothing to press.
Leaks are good, not perfect: a LOW-confidence tip can be wrong about the direction. Only you see them — never other players.
You can move the market.
Once per match, pick a market and PUMP or DUMP it: an instant hit of about 14%, then about 5 s of strong momentum the same way — applied through the market itself, so it moves as a percentage at 1x or 20x.
It is force, not a script: candles still come in both colours, and the market can fight back. Everyone gets a WHALE ALERT for that market — but not the direction. Your normal buys and sells are ordinary trades and move nothing; only the sweep does.
You create hype — or fear.
Make a public call on a market: HYPE (“THIS IS THE ONE. SEND IT.”) pushes it up, FUD (“Get out while you can.”) pushes it down, as strong momentum for about 7 s. 2 calls per match, each one HYPE or FUD, 20 s apart. Everyone sees the call.
A call has no big instant move like the WHALE's sweep — it tilts the odds for longer. It is not a guaranteed candle: counter-candles, reversals and the market's own events still happen. The chat-style signals everyone can send never change prices.
You can automate your exits.
Set server-side sell triggers on positions you hold: a target multiplier and how much to sell (25 / 50 / 100%). Aim above the market to take profit or below it as a stop. When the market reaches the target, the server sells for you at the market — no fee, no slippage — even if you're offline for a moment.
EXAMPLE
You hold $JEET at 1.20x. Set SELL 100% AT 1.50x. If JEET touches 1.50x, the server closes the position at that moment.
Auto exit hit $JEET: sold all · $6,250.00
No limit per match: one armed exit per market, on as many markets as you like. Edit or cancel any time, and set a new one after it fires. Unfired triggers are cleared at the bell.
You vanish from the board.
Passive — nothing to press. When the clock reaches 1:00, GHOST MODE starts on its own: rivals see you as HIDDEN at the very bottom of the live board — no PnL, no place, and your row never moves with your real standing.
You still see your real PnL, positions and place. It hides you; it doesn't protect you — the final results reveal everything and always use your true portfolio.
You can double down. Or triple.
Pick a position (worth at least $50) and choose 2X for 10 s or 3X for 7 s: every move of that market counts that many times on that position — up and down.
EXAMPLE
$1,000 in a market that rises 10% during 3X → about +$300 instead of +$100. If it falls 10% → about −$300.
2 activations per match, one at a time: the next one is available once the current one ends, and each can be 2X or 3X. No debt, no liquidation.
You can protect your downside.
Pick a position (worth at least $50). For 8 s it can't be worth less than at activation — selling pays at least that floor — while every gain above it is still yours. When the window ends, normal market exposure resumes.
EXAMPLE
Activate on $2,000 of $RUG at 1.10x. It crashes to 0.80x during the window: your position still counts (and sells) as about $2,000. If it had pumped instead, you'd keep the upside.
3 activations per match, one at a time — you can't stack floors or restart a running one.
Progression
MMR is your Ranked skill rating. New players start at 0 (BRONZE III). After each Ranked match it goes up or down based on your placement (1st +45 … 8th −45 in a full lobby), nudged a little by lobby strength — beating stronger traders is worth a bit more.
Your rank is read straight from your MMR. Each tier has three divisions, III → II → I:
| RANK | MMR |
|---|---|
 Diamond I | 2,800+ |
 Diamond II | 2,600–2,799 |
 Diamond III | 2,400–2,599 |
 Platinum I | 2,200–2,399 |
 Platinum II | 2,000–2,199 |
 Platinum III | 1,800–1,999 |
 Gold I | 1,600–1,799 |
 Gold II | 1,400–1,599 |
 Gold III | 1,200–1,399 |
 Silver I | 1,000–1,199 |
 Silver II | 800–999 |
 Silver III | 600–799 |
 Bronze I | 400–599 |
 Bronze II | 200–399 |
 Bronze III | 0–199 |
Numbers are the MMR where each division starts.
MMR is skill. Level is time served. They're separate: XP and levels are account progression and are purely cosmetic — they unlock titles, frames and themes, never gameplay power.
Level 1 → 2 takes 400 XP, and each level asks a bit more (max level 100).
RULE
No XP, achievements or challenge progress if you leave early, are connected for less than 60% of the match, or never do anything in it. MMR still follows your placement in Ranked.
61 achievements reward milestones and memorable matches across 8 categories (performance, trading, special, markets, roles, career, social, legacy). Most count in Ranked; the social ones in friendly lobbies and competitions. 7 are hidden until you earn them.
Achievements give XP and some unlock cosmetics. See them on your profile and on Challenges.
We're in SEASON 0 / TEST MARKET — the first competitive season, while the game is still being tuned. The leaderboard has a season tab, and playing Ranked this season earns the SEASON ZERO OG achievement and the TEST MARKET PIONEER title. Your MMR carries over between seasons.
Multiplayer
Add friends to see when they're online and which match they're in, and to invite them. A party (up to 8) lets you play Casual together: everyone readies up and the leader's FIND MATCH takes the whole party into the same match. The leader can also invite everyone into a friendly lobby. Ranked is solo only.
You can block anyone — blocked players can't send you requests or invites.
Dropped? Your seat is held for 60 s during a match (15 s in a lobby). The market doesn't wait: your positions stay exposed while you're away, and a SNIPER trigger still fires.
WARNING
Leaving mid-match doesn't protect you. Your portfolio stays in play and is still placed at the bell — in Ranked that placement still changes your MMR — and you earn no XP or achievements for that match.
Matches cancelled by the server (not enough traders at the open, server issues) change nothing: no MMR, no XP.
Competitive
The leaderboard ranks registered players by MMR (top 100), with a GLOBAL tab and a tab for the current season. You appear after your first Ranked match.
Private multi-round tournaments. Any registered player can create one (8 / 16 / 24 / 32 traders, 3 or 5 rounds) and invite players. Each round is played in groups of up to 8, and placements earn points:
Ties are broken by competition points → average placement (lower) → best placement → total final portfolio. Competitions never change MMR. No entry fees, no prizes, no wagering.
3 daily and 3 weekly challenges — the same for everyone, reset at 00:00 UTC (weeklies on Monday). They're played in Ranked and reward XP (plus a nameplate mark for weeklies). Find them on the Challenges page.
