War. War never changes.
Previously on CryptoUknown's Battlegrounds: "CryptoUknown's Battlegrounds! - The Crypto Battle Royale, Part I".
The first two rounds of the CryptoUknown’s Battlegrounds were full of intense violence, blood and gore. Experienced and battleborn cryptocurrencies didn’t spare any beginner in the field and caused mayhem.
The gruesome violence and the screams of newbie coins are met with strong enthusiasm by the audience of the battleground. The followers of each surviving coin have high hopes, but as the rules stand, there can only be one winner:
The Last Coin Standing. The one that survives will be crowned King of Crypto.
Will BTC successfully defend its title and slay the remaining challengers to the throne?
The audience often favors an underdog, to accomplish a heroic achievement by upsetting odds and making the impossible happen.
Can we count on the audience, though, or perhaps are there forces beyond our understanding and reasoning that could manipulate the battleground to their desires and plans?
The Battle Rages On

The map has shrunk to its final point, the city of Pochinki. A new round begins, and the zone will keep shrinking into the final location that will be revealed in about 10 minutes.
Seven more deaths occurred as too many coins didn't have enough time to cover and Bitcoin is currently leading the kill stats with 19 frags!
Litecoin follows with 15 kills and the top-3 Coins conclude with Bitcoin Cash and Ethereum at the third place with 12 kills each.
The 13 remaining coins are Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Tether, Stellar, Atom, Iota, XRP, Algorand, and ZCash, with memes Doge and Shiba Inu also both still alive.
Currently, we focus our attention on BTC. With the heatmap, on our screens, we can observe how close to Ethereum BTC is. One small mistake, one sound, one wrong footstep could be detrimental to any of these two opponents.
The landscape in this area (Pochinki village) makes it difficult to move or compose any kind of offensive strategy. There are barely any trees or other natural objects like rocks to cover and the Coins seem reluctant to go to the offense. All are camping and waiting for their opponents' mistakes. The only audible sound is a soft breeze that seems to be increasing at times.
Bitcoin is camping in a two-store building and moving between windows in anxiety, trigger happy to shoot any kind of movement observed.

Meanwhile, Shib found Doge hiding in a vulnerable spot on the map and is just one bullet away from killing it.
"Get Rekt, Dogecoin", said Shib to Doge, as it pointed its Groza on Doge's body.
"Oh, no you don't", shouts Doge to Shiba Inu in a "much Wow" fashion, and at the same instant, a bullet penetrated Shib's skull shooting its brain out.
Bitcoin Cash just head-shotted Shiba Inu to oblivion, and unknowingly rescued Dogecoin from certain elimination, using its sniper rifle AWM with an x15-zoom scope, it picked from an airdrop previously, shooting from almost a mile away.
However, with this move Bitcoin Cash had just announced its hiding spot. Things will now turn ugly for Bitcoin Cash since it didn't just save the life of an extremely strong opponent, but also now becomes the target of every surrounding enemy.
And all of the sudden there is a heavy gunfight happening as Stellar charged into the building ZCash was hiding and killed the only remaining privacy Coin! However, Tether had noticed and also charged right behind Stellar, killing XLM and now taking over the camp spot where previously ZCash was hiding.
The zone had been shrinking for a while and right before it settles in a tiny location inside Pochinki, four more Coins found a tragic fate, either from gunshots by opponents waiting for them, or died from gas asphyxiation, unable to enter the final safe zone. Atom, IOTA, Algorand, and XRP are now eliminated, and this final round now gets real!
Final Round Begins. An unexpected twist of events!
We are down to 6 Cryptos still competing but as we were watching Bitcoin Cash headshot, THE UNTHINKABLE HAS JUST HAPPENED.
In an unexpected turn of events for the battleground as Bitcoin has just died after Ethereum threw a grenade that blasted right in front of the face of BTC.
The leading cryptocurrency, the pride of our industry, the everlasting champion of decentralization and freedom from bank oppression, Bitcoin (BTC)... is dead .... once and for all!
Nobody would have ever expected this, and Ethereum that delivered the deathblow is now on top of Bitcoin's dead body performing a mocking dance!

The other Coins are in shock and the audience on their screens is speechless.
Ladies and Gentlemen...
BITCOIN... after 432 false obituaries by the mainstream media in the previous 12 years ... IS FINALLY, OFFICIALLY DEAD!
The King is Dead...
"NO! THIS CAN'T BE", Litecoin, shouted while bursting into tears.
The self-proclaimed "silver to the Bitcoin's gold", was hoping for a heads-up battle against Bitcoin after they eliminated all opposition but the tables have now turned.
Litecoin is on its own now, and Bitcoin Cash is already looking to take advantage of the situation to claim the Bitcoin title and brand name!
The main contender is dead and there are just five cryptocurrencies left on this battlefield.
What an unexpected moment in this battle.
But, just a second. What is happening now?
The weather changed and acts abnormal all of the sudden.
Strong winds approach the village of Ponchiski and all Coins are currently on lay-down position to cover themselves from what appears to be A TORNADO that has suddenly formed and ravages the village!
A loud boom sound was heard and the city is now torn apart, with roofs getting ripped off houses, vehicles overturned and smaller objects getting drawn inside the tornado!
The twister has now reached the center of the town threatening the remaining players, after carving a path of destruction.
This is impossible to be a natural disaster, there are no such weather phenomena in this area.
As the tornado eases out, a device on the ground appears and a live streaming hologram transmission begins:
Quantum Immortality Activated!
Like a deus ex machina, the Bogdanoffs arrive and save BTC from a humiliating defeat, enabling a one-time quantum immortality skill that resurrects Bitcoin and gives it a second chance!
Is this allowed in the game? I don't know, there are no rules.
A force such formidable as the Bogdanoffs is one we shouldn't question, especially judging from the internet rumors!
BTC is up on its feet again, but its backpack was already looted by Ethereum, and Bitcoin is now left with a level-2 vest, no helmet, a SKAR-L assault rifle with just half the accessories, and an old Kar98k it was carrying since the beginning.
While everyone was still baffled by what they've just watched Dogecoin is already healed-up from the previous fight with Shiba and takes advantage of the momentary confusion to assault Tether that was just standing still and couldn't believe Bitcoin was still alive. Dogecoin fatally wounds Tether with the M416 set at auto, eventually eliminating Tether in seconds.
Litecoin in Trouble

Ethereum is now fired up as well and takes down Litecoin in an instant after watching Litecoin trying to flank Doge and sniped it with three headshots with the last one penetrating the level-3 helmet.
Doge, though, has just spotted the flash from Ethereum's sniper rifle coming from the basement of a nearby building. Doge immediately rushes into the building from the back window and unleashes a hail of bullets on Ethereum, eliminating one of the top challengers! What an amazing battle!
The crowd cheers and supports Dogecoin for its cuteness as Doge wags its tail while looting the backpack of Ethereum and barking happily!
It is now down to the 3 last contesters.
Dogecoin (DOGE), Bitcoin (BTC), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
Bitcoin Cash was trained for this. It has been developing and improving for years, only to meet BTC increasing its dominance in the battlefields.
Bitcoin Cash wants this over, once and for all, and with 20 kills already, it is in a top form to secure the win in this CryptoUknown's Battleground and become the champion!
Doge is probably the "underdog" but has shown promise and the crowd loves it!
Can Bitcoin Cash or Doge make it and become the new Crypto Champions?
Only 3 Coins left - Time is running out!

Playing area restriction starts again, and now surrounds only one two-story building, with Bitcoin prone and camping inside a small room on the second floor, and Dogecoin fortunate enough to be in safety outside of the building with its back to the wall. Doge has a small window it can use to barge into the ground floor and attack both Bitcoin Cash and BTC. Bitcoin Cash is also camping the ground floor and hiding at a corner watching at Doge's position.
Gone in 30 seconds!
In only 30 seconds Doge will have to make this move since the zone will start shrinking again and it will not be able to survive the gas poisoning outside the house.
Doge is in a difficult spot, if it enters the building now, it will be instantly attacked by Bitcoin Cash and won't survive. If it stays prone behind the building and doesn't move in 20 seconds, it will die from gas poisoning.
Bitcoin Cash knows that Doge is still outside and Bitcoin is camping on the floor above. And Doge knows that Bitcoin Cash knows.
It is an all-or-nothing moment for Doge, and after a split second of thinking up of a strategy, it comes up with a plan.
Doge finds a smoke grenade in its backpack and decided it was time to play with wits. It throws the smoke grenade inside the building breaking the glass of the window and as the smoke covers the ground floor, Doge quickly barges in and saves itself from gas poisoning.
Bitcoin Cash fired a few bullets on the window, but Doge's plan worked perfectly and it quickly rushed on the right corner of the room in a prone position.
In the same second, BTC’s footsteps were loud as it was rushing down the stairs. Bitcoin launched a frag grenade in a blank spot since it didn’t have clear visibility with all the smoke, hoping to kill one of the two opponents. Bitcoin Cash and Doge charged at BTC at the same time, with Bitcoin Cash unleashing at point-blank a round of bullets on BTC’s body killing it. No Bogdanoff can save BTC this time!
Bitcoin was dead (again) but it had already taken down more than half of BCH’s HP while firing back.
Doge, though, having a better positioning in this situation, instantly stands up from its prone position and shoots Bitcoin Cash.
It only took a split of a second, for Bitcoin Cash to turn and fire back, but it wasn't enough. The Doge bullets penetrated the armor of Bitcoin Cash and emptied the remaining HP bar it had left, leaving Bitcoin Cash a corpse lying on the floor next to BTC!!!
Dogecoin has accomplished the impossible! It is the LAST COIN STANDING in this Battle Royale, and is now officially the new KING OF CRYPTO!
Ladies and gentlemen, this season of CryptoUknown's Battlegrounds is over and we have a Winner: Dogecoin.
