Bit 15 by Mudrex

How do you gamify crypto for it to reach the masses?

You don’t teach. You let them play.
Real decisions. Real stakes.
Mistakes don’t punish, they teach.
And wins feel like learning.

Learning Options Through Play

Crypto derivatives are powerful but intimidating.
Most first time users never cross the “options learning cliff” because:

  • Terminology is complex (strike, expiry, premiums)

  • Mistakes feel expensive

  • Learning is theoretical, not experiential

How would we know if it worked?

Bit15 achieved record-breaking engagement shortly after launch.

Our fundamentals were strong. But of course, everything is nothing but a bet on informed choices

How did we go about it?

From Design To Launch.

It took us 2.5 months to formalize, design and make this live.

Stage 1

Kickoff

How might we help everyday crypto users understand options trading without teaching options? Constraints: Cannot frame it as gambling or chance-based No jargon Fast feedback Emotionally engaging Safe for beginners

Learning by Doing

Real money = real attention

Stage 2

Key Insight

Options, at their core, are just: Direction (up / down) Time (expiry) Risk vs reward If users can experience these three repeatedly, they don’t need to “learn options”, they internalize them.

Built intuitive market understanding

Reach the market share during crypto boom

Stage 3

Game Mechanics

Asset: Bitcoin only (remove choice paralysis) Timeframe: 15 minutes Short enough to feel immediate Long enough to feel market tension Action: Up / Down Outcome: Win or lose, no ambiguity

Gamification: Clear rules, Clear payoff, Clear consequence

Without: Tutorials, Charts overload, Definitions

Design decisions that mattered

We need to live upto our personality. We are claiming to be trusted, knowledgeable crypto partners.

No good thing can happen without our own understanding of ourselves

Outcome Decoder

Understanding what the market did

After each 15-minute outcome, AI explains why the market moved the way it did using post-event data only, with no predictions or advice.

Reduces false attribution to luck or skill

Teaches market structure without predictions

Behavioral Pattern Engine

Understanding how you react under uncertainty

AI analyzes repeated Bit15 sessions to surface behavioral tendencies, impulsive entries, hesitation after losses, or streak-chasing after wins.

Self-awareness becomes a core learning outcome, not an afterthought

Markets don’t just test strategy, they expose behavior.

Intuition Progress Tracker

Seeing growth without scores or gamification

AI tracks invisible skills like timing discipline, emotional stability, and consistency, and reflects progress qualitatively over time.

Users don’t measure learning by profits.

They measure it by how calmly and clearly they make decisions.

What we didn't go ahead with :

Design decisions can change emotions

Of course, we would not make it entirely reward focused. We would not make it like a gambling ad.
The end goal after all, is education and conversion of a crypto curious individual into a crypto invested user.
