I am the richest NEET.
Very cool @imaginegamelabs
Quick reminder that NEETopia's 7-day competition is still live, with $2K+ in the prize pool for the top 10 players on the leaderboard.
Only a few days left to climb the rankings and secure your spot.
The game is completely free to play, but you'll need to hold at least $50 worth of $NEETOPIA in your connected wallet to qualify for rewards.
Payouts are weekly, not daily. The prize pool will be distributed to the top 10 eligible players once the 7-day competition ends.
Still plenty of time to grind your way up!

BATON Factory competition is officially over.
The final leaderboard is locked, wallets are confirmed, and winners are finalized.
Over the last 7 days, we saw players grinding for hours, developing strategies, competing for leaderboard positions, sharing guides, and helping us improve the game through constant feedback.
That’s what mattered most. People didn’t just try the game once. They kept coming back.
Now, regarding the prize pool and payouts.
After the Day 1 winners were paid, $6,000 remained in the BATON reward allocation. However, the prize allocation was held in BATON rather than stablecoins, and the token’s subsequent decline reduced its value by $2,500.
This wasn’t a reduction in the amount of BATON allocated, but a decline in its USD value due to market conditions.
Of the remaining $3,500, $2,000 will go to the final leaderboard winners, while $1,500 will be retained in the team treasury to support future competitions and operations.
Our $FACTORY buybacks are also currently down approximately $5,500 in market value.
Everything remains publicly verifiable onchain.
Despite the criticism, BATON Factory has been free to play since day one, rewards have been paid, buybacks executed, and our financial activity has remained transparent.
BATON Factory will remain playable, and we’ve already learned a lot from this first competition, especially when it comes to managing reward allocations during volatile markets.
Huge thanks to everyone who competed, shared strategies, provided feedback, and made our first full Imagine Earn competition possible.
IMAGINE > PLAY > EARN
BATON Factory is going onchain.
We built the game for the BATON community. Now we’re giving the game its own economy.
Introducing $FACTORY, launching on Pump.fun and paired with SOL.
Creator fees will be used like this:
50% → buy BATON and reward the best BATON Factory players
25% → buy back $IMAGINE
25% → buy back $FACTORY
First player rewards will be distributed after the opening competition ends in ~1 week.
Play the game. Build your office. Hire meme characters. Climb the leaderboard.
This is the experiment we’ve wanted to run for a while:
turn community IP into a playable world, then let activity around the game flow back into the communities building it.

Final stretch for BATON Factory!
The leaderboard is still moving, people are still finding better builds, and there’s still time to climb before we lock the final standings tomorrow.
We already paid the day 1 winners, and the bigger final prize pool gets distributed after the competition ends.
BATON Factory stays free to play. If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, this is basically your last day to make a run at the leaderboard.
Tomorrow we find out who actually built the best factory...

Big shout out to @idrawloomline (Zachary) for pushing hard and keeping me on my toes and for showing his tower too which proved strategy matters a lot and different strategies can prove similar results, strategy is the key long term!

This is probably the best BATON Factory starter guide we could’ve asked for!
People are already developing real strategies around production, NPC placement, upgrades, hype, security and late-game optimization.
That’s what we wanted: not something you open once for rewards, but a game people actually learn, optimize and compete in.
Free to play, real prize pool ($8K), a very competitive leaderboard, and players already spending hours grinding it.

Alright so people commenting a lot about the game being unfair or something else so here's how I build and went about it, ranked #1 on day 1 and battling it out with Zachary on the current season:
Spend time reading the actual items you can place.
- There's a billboard on the wall in the bottom floor, you can accept tasks which give you ingame currency
- Baton pipeline always needs: Cartoner, IR Dryer and Grip Paint Booth for bonuses (says so on the description), build these as fast as possible.
- "Company tab" has a lot of upgrades, upgrade them when you can
- Max acceptable shop tools per floor, for paint operators I use Mensa's once I have the money because they stay the longest (One of the excellent parts about this game is that the NPC and item positions actually matter where they are at that moment!)
- Hires need energy, food and rest so when placing desks, plan their "break needs" close to them
- Shill stations early on are great for Hype (Whales and Airdrops give you the most ingame money), not sure if it affects revenue bonus alerts too
- Security items for fudders / ruggers, they take big chunks of money otherwise
- Each floor has "Decor XX/20", I have no clue what it means but I keep it at 20/20 (there's hype statues etc)
- Copiers + Printers when you have sales desks
- Whale quick flips = Easy money, the bulk stuff is extremely hard
- Don't max out low output production equipment in the beginning, it might take a little more time to get the better version but it's worth it rather than spending the same amount in increment in the lower output machines
- For endgame go look at the line at the shipping chute, max 20k batons can fit a conveyer so don't overdo (All-Hands doesn't help either if you're maxed), how I built my desks, going for full Sales Desks trying to max out Mensa and Jean Phil for 2x multiplier on them (I don't have nearly all as they cost like hell, so throw a few HR desks so they don't fight or some other hires)
- I'm not sure but IPO revenue might actually raise Baton Price so more IPO's seems like the way to go as I have done most and managed to grab #1 (Takes a little more building time but after a few you get used to where items are in the shop)
This is just how I have strategized, I might be wrong in some areas but it seems to have worked. Happy building!

day 2 is already closed and we’re on day 3 now
there won’t be another full reset like after day 1 — that was only because of the progression + anti-cheat update
from here the competition just keeps running and the reward pool keeps stacking up for the remaining daily payouts + the bigger final distribution
we’ll post the leaderboard snapshots / winners when each round is finalized
basically: keep building, keep climbing, rewards are still accumulating!
Replying to @imaginegamelabs
Ok thanks for clarifying. Day 2 lasted longer than day 1 did already, so I'm asking what time does day 2 conclude and day 3 start?

Are you guys resetting everyone stats and towers now like you did after day 1 concluded, or are you waiting to make sure that me not coming in 1st feels more believable

BTC just broke $80k
BitMEX closed XBTUSD after a 10 year run
meanwhile $XBT is still sitting around $1m and paying holders in BTC
feels like the market is finally starting to connect the dots

This $XBT all time chart looks like a piece of art. God candles loading...

Dmed most of my friends about $xbt once again most will ignore it and at 10x higher will let me know I should of been pushing it more.
Interesting things happening in the xbt community (:

I’ve become even more bullish on $XBT now as it consolidates at the bottom compared to when it was trending at the top.
Too many holders are unrelenting and believe the coin to be the so-called “trencher’s bitcoin”.
When I read through holder theses on fomo and messages in chat, I witness the kind of autism that typically is symptomatic of bluechip communities.
I will back this community. And if you go through my timeline, I myself am unrelenting. I don’t easily give up when I see the vision and am around like-minded people.
XBT is a bluechip meme, whether I like it or not. I do not make the rules.
It is quite refreshing to be in a coin where all the top holders are alligned to not sell regardless of the swings and aim for a bigger picture.
$XBT will have its day I am sure because of the holders and the cult being formed.

I had 1.3 mil solana:BLLieANeMifThH5gBeKRaNixYJPkf7fuM13VZfJ5STNK yesterday and now I have 2.0 solana:BLLieANeMifThH5gBeKRaNixYJPkf7fuM13VZfJ5STNK. They can keep selling and I'm just going to buy the dip. I'm trying to make my average cost be 1 mil MC entry
Talking with the $XBT holders gets me so hype. 😂
It’s rare that you have top holders so aligned with the vision and so calm in the retraces.
At the end of the day, long term projects live or die based on the strength of their communities.
Our top holders have seen 50k-100k unrealized at the top, never sold, and are still adding the dips.
That’s how you know. We got a winner here.
