๐Ÿ’จBoost system

The Boost System is RRCโ€™s signature gamified trading mechanic that lets players influence their roachโ€™s speed by predicting real-time price movements of crypto assets. It rewards skillful decision-making: the more accurately you predict the chart, the stronger your boost. But holding a position too long risks the market reversing โ€” turning your boost negative.

How Boost Works

  1. You see a live chart of your roachโ€™s assigned cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH, DOGE, etc.).

  2. Predict price movement by pressing UP or DOWN โ€” this opens a position.

  3. While the position is open:

  4. If the price moves in your predicted direction โ†’ you gain positive boost (acceleration).

  5. If the price moves against your prediction โ†’ you gain a negative boost (slowdown).

  6. The farther the price moves from your entry point, the stronger the boost multiplier becomes.

  7. You can close the position at any time before the round ends.

  8. Closing with positive boost โ†’ your roach accelerates for several seconds.

  9. Closing with negative boost โ†’ your roach slows down proportionally.

Gameplay Dilemma

Being in an open position with negative boost slows down the roach, creating a strategic dilemma: close now and get an even bigger slowdown but then re-enter the trade, or endure and hope for a change in the asset's price movement.

Bullish/Bearish Mood

Every roach is born with an assigned Mood, shown as an arrow on the roachโ€™s cryptocurrency asset icon. Mood influences every race by giving a small passive boost or slowdown depending on the asset market movement. Read more about it here.
