Bitcoin Education Gets Gamified with New AR App Launch

Austin, United States – Jippi, a mobile augmented reality (AR) game developer, is set to debut its new game aimed at changing how people learn about Bitcoin.

The official launch is scheduled for the Bitcoin Conference 2025, taking place at The Venetian Resort in Las Vegas from May 27-29.

This initiative is a collaboration with six Bitcoin companies: Bitcoin Well, Beyond The Checkout, Bitcoin Trading Cards, Geyser, SHAmory, and 21M Communications.

The game blends outdoor adventure, real Bitcoin rewards, and gamified financial education, drawing comparisons to location-based AR games like Pokémon GO. Players will explore real-world locations to find and capture digital creatures called “Bitcoin Beasts.” To catch a Beast, players must correctly answer Bitcoin-related trivia questions. Successful captures earn players sats, the smallest unit of Bitcoin.

At the Bitcoin Conference, each of Jippi’s six partner companies has sponsored a custom “Bitcoin Beast” located at specific spots around The Venetian. These sponsored Beasts will offer players exclusive rewards and trivia tailored to the partners.

With over 30,000 attendees expected, this provides sponsors with direct engagement opportunities with a tech-savvy, Bitcoin-focused audience.

Players who catch all six sponsored Beasts at the conference can earn a total of 6,000 sats.

Oliver Porter, Founder and CEO of Jippi, explained the strategy in the announcement. “We’re meeting Gen Z where they are—90% play mobile games, and 70% expect rewards for their time,” he said. “Jippi backdoors Bitcoin education through an immersive, reward-driven experience while offering our partners a unique branding opportunity. It’s a win-win for players, sponsors, and the Bitcoin ecosystem.”

Adam O’Brien, CEO of Bitcoin Well and a “Beast” sponsor, commented on the game’s potential. “Jippi’s mission to gamify Bitcoin education is a game-changer for onboarding the next generation,” O’Brien stated. “Their AR game makes learning about Bitcoin intuitive and engaging, aligning perfectly with our vision of financial empowerment.”

Jippi has been under development for over a year, including on-site surveys and university testing. In March 2025, the company won the top prize in PlebLab’s “Top Builder” competition, a hackathon supporting innovative Bitcoin startups.

Jippi is a mobile AR gaming company dedicated to making Bitcoin education accessible and engaging. By combining location-based gameplay with Bitcoin rewards and financial literacy, Jippi aims to empower the next generation with sound money principles.
