THNDR — Gaming for Bitcoin (BTC)
Before I start this article I wanted to thank everyone for helping me reach over 450 followers on Medium and a bunch on all of my other platforms. I appreciate all of your support and I will keep writing articles and making videos as long as I have free time.
Right when I heard about this new gaming platform I knew I had to share it with everyone. The name of this new play-to-earn platform is called THNDR. THNDR is right up there with ZEBEDEE and Wombat. If you do not know about ZEBEDEE or Wombat then check out one of my previous articles such as “(ZEBEDEE + Hellfire) Play-to-Earn just got a whole lot better!”. Or click here for the video I created about Womplay. This video is about Wombat's new desktop program coming soon but also explains how Womplay works. I only suggest using the desktop program if you know what you are doing. Their desktop program is not yet released and is only being used for people willing to test and do bug bounties. I plan on creating a full article and video about Womplay in the next couple of articles. I think it is worth checking out.
If you decide to sign up to THNDR you do not sign up using the THNDR website. The website is more of a way to get information and get involved with their social platforms. Check out below to see how this next-level P2E platform works. Here is the link to their website but when you decide to sign up you will have to sign up directly through the games.
What is THNDR
THNDR was created in 2022. This surprises me because I am just now hearing about it. I started using THNDR apps about a week ago and it has become one of my favorite P2E (play-to-earn) platforms.
THNDR is a P2E platform that allows you to earn Bitcoin using the lightning network. Bitcoins Layer 2 solution that allows almost instant payments with practically no fees.
At the moment they have six games you can choose from. These games are available on Apple and Android devices. Here is a short list of the games that are available and how they work.
Turbo ’84 is my favorite game available by THNDR at the moment. It is a game where you are driving a car and you go faster as time goes on. You have to pick up as many coins and tickets. The coins are used for in-game items such as new cars and better engines.
The tickets are where the Bitcoin comes in. The more tickets you collect the more chances you have of winning a large amount of Bitcoin. I have noticed when I only play a couple of games I make around 8 to 14 sats. The more you play the more you earn. You have one hour to collect as many tickets as you can. As you can also see at the bottom of the screen you see magnets. These magnets can be found throughout the game and allow you to grab all coins and tickets around you for a certain amount of time.
Bitcoin Bounce is my second favorite game by THNDR. It is a game where you try to bounce as many times as you can while collecting as many tickets as you can. This is a lot harder than it looks and it is fun to see how far you can go.
If you decide to check out any of these games please leave a comment and let me and all of the readers know what you think.
I love the idea of Bitcoin Snake. It is bringing back a classic and makes it rewarding and fun at the same time. It is the same earning idea as the other games. Survive as long as you can and collect as many tickets as you can.
I always enjoy it when classics are brought back. Nothing beats playing a classic game and earning Bitcoin at the same time!
Bitcoin Bay is fun and also a little different than the rest. It is based more on a level system. The more levels you beat the more tickets you earn.
Bitcoin Bay is a fun game and starts to get tricky starting at around level 11. It is not the highest-earning game by THNDR but it is fun and can be rather rewarding depending on how good you are at these types of games.
Club Bitcoin is THNDR’s solitaire card game. Play solitaire and earn Bitcoin pretty much. It is crazy because I used to know a good amount of people that would just play solitaire on their phones for fun. Now you can play Solitaire when you are bored and earn Bitcoin while you play.
Another classic brought to us by THNDR. As you can see above in the screen shot it is exactly like normal solitaire but the more you play the more Bitcoin you earn.
Tetris Tiles is a mind puzzle game. You have to add as many blocks as you can into the given space. The more blocks you line up and break and the longer you last the more Bitcoin you win.
As time goes on I am sure THNDR will add more games and become a powerhouse in Bitcoin P2E games.
I will provide a link will all of these games at the end of this article as well. It should make it a little easier for you the reader to check them out when you are done reading.
How Do You Earn
THNDR games all have the same earning concept. Collect tickets to earn Bitcoin. The more tickets you earn the more chance you have of getting the largest amount available.
This makes everyone capable of earning sats when they play. Even if you only collect a couple of tickets from playing one time you will still earn sats. When you have reached the desired amount of sats you have over six different wallets you can withdraw to. We will go over withdrawing in more detail in the next section.
How to Withdraw
Withdrawing from THNDR games is as easy as clicking a couple of buttons. This is if you already have your wallets installed on your phone. They have over six different wallets to choose from. I will go over each wallet and let you know what I think of them.
Blue Wallet — I have used Blue Wallet in the past and enjoyed using it. It is one of the easiest wallets to use. Blue Wallet is a self-custodial wallet.
Breez — I have not had the chance to use Breez yet but I have heard good things about it. It had no reviews on Trust Pilot. If you know more about this wallet and use it then please leave a comment and let us all know how what you think about it.
CashApp — CashApp is one of the easiest wallets to use. CashApp is a widely used wallet for holding dollars, Bitcoin, and stocks, but just recently (2022) they started to allow Bitcoin Lightning Network transactions. This changes everything for CashApp I think. This is one of the most well knownP2P Banking apps. Allowing lightning-fast Bitcoin transactions is a major step toward wider adoption.
If you have not used CashApp and decide to use it then please use my referral code: QPLBLNK
Muun — Muun wallet is a self-custodial wallet that allows you to transact using the Bitcoin Lightning Network for extremely low fees. I think Muun is one of the most accessible Bitcoin Lightning Network wallets available right next to CashApp.
Wallet of Satoshi — Wallet of Satoshi was one of the first Bitcoin Lightning Network wallets I used. I still use it to this day for certain things. I think Wallet of Satoshi is a great starter wallet. It is a custodial wallet which means you do not own your keys. As time goes on you will realize why owning your own keys is extremely important.
ZEBEDEE (ZBD) — ZBD is a P2E platform kind of like THNDR but with a lot more bells and whistles. What is cool about ZBD is that it has its own Bitcoin Lightning wallet built right into there app. You can use this wall for all of your transactions or you can even use your Bitcoin earnings to buy gift cards right from the ZBD app.
Final Thoughts

THNDR has become one of my favorite P2E platforms. Not only is it addictive but you get paid Bitcoin right to your wallet whenever you want and lightning fast. This takes earning money playing games to a whole new level.
Now this is my own personal opinion but I think there will be major mobile Tournaments in the not-so-distant future.
