Apple approves bitcoin geocaching game!

Apple have approved our bitcoin geocaching game "takara" on the iOS app store. Download

"takara" means treasure in Japanese and the game lets users drop bitcoin in the form of jewels anywhere in the world. However users must go a location takara has been dropped to pick it up.

Users can added a message and question to the bitcoin they drop.

Advertisers can also attach a custom banner and link to their site.

The app also has a built in secure wallet.

We hope that businesses will drop bitcoin at their store to attract customers!

Checkout our demo video here Watch Demo

Although the app is live dropping bitcoin is currently disabled for a few days, this is because we want to invite users to try and spoof their location and collect some takara we have dropped in Antarctica

Some of you may know that geocaching games are subject to "location spoofing". We have special algorithms to detect spoofing however for the user's sake we would like to do the due diligence and make sure the app is as secure as possible.

If all goes well dropping takara will be live in a few days.

Please report any bugs or security holes to admin@mandelduck.com

Thanks

n.b. An Android version is planned, however bitcoin security is a little trickier on Android compared to iOS hence the delay.
