It’s been awhile but with a little not-so-free time and some new tech, we’re at it again but this time way better. Now you can play Rust and earn bitcoin all automagically. As an experiment, we’ve modded the server so that Easter eggs can be redeemed for sats (aka Bitcoin satoshis). Here’s how it works:
- Play the game and find bronze eggs through random drops or from a few randomly hidden loot boxes around the world
- Bring your eggs to a vending machine and redeem for in-game sats (seen as painted eggs hah)
- Create a Lightning invoice for the amount you wish to withdraw
- Submit the invoice via in-game command
- Wait literally a few seconds
- Profit!
Bitcoin Lightning payments require you to have a Lightning wallet. A few respectable wallets for a mobile device are mentioned here and here. You can also get one for your browser as a browser extension. Once you pick one, it should really only take less than 10 mins. No personal information required!
We’ve given you some free sats right when you join so you can help test payments too. So you have nothing to lose hah.
Join our Discord server for more details on in-game commands. Everything else in game is vanilla.
Please note this is an experiment with Lightning. There may be some hiccups. If this becomes popular, I’d like to figure out a way to make this sustainable. If you have ideas, please feel free to share them on Discord. With the number of Rust plugins already available, there is already a lot we can do. Professional virtual bounty hunter is one of them >:).
If you want to donate to the project to help keep the sats flowing, you can drop bitcoin at 13UH6HR2KLMRkzYBZQxz21HYdQ8Av35J4q or send LN payment to https://getalby.com/p/obsidianworlds. The more sats that come in, the more that will come out.
