1. Can someone steal my assets if I only have one set?

No. According to the Protect Your Cryptos Rule, the first set you play is always secure and cannot be challenged or stolen. An opponent can only attempt a attack if you have at least two sets in your Player Pile.

2. What happens if I use a Wild Card to steal a set?

If you win a challenge using a Wild Card, that Wild Card is added to you Player Pile sets. When you place the newly acquired set on top of your Player Pile, ensure a standard Asset Card (XRP, Doge coin) is visible on top, not the Wild card (Bitcoin/Ethereum), to clearly show what type of crypto it is.

3. If an opponent has a top Set (like XRP, Tether, Solana), can I challenge them using a Wild Card?

Yes. You can challenge any set using a Wild Card (Bitcoin/Ethereum). Wild cards can attack or defend anything.

4. Can I use an Ethereum Wild card to block a Bitcoin hack?

No. If your opponent uses Bitcoin to attack you, you must play Bitcoin to defend.  If someone tries to take your Bitcoin using a Bitcoin card, you have to use your own Bitcoin to stop them. But, if your opponent uses Ethereum to attack you, you may use Bitcoin or Ethereum to defend.

5. The "Stealth Whale" Deception

12. Can I attack an opponent on my very first turn?

No. Makes sure every player has at least one safe pile (your Genesis Set) before the “Attack” begin. You must build your own first set of matching cards in front of you before you are allowed to try and ‘hack’ or take anyone else’s cards”.

13. When can I use the "Move One" Advanced Wild card ?

You can’t move your sets until your vault is big enough! You must build your first set (The Genesis Set) and two more sets on top of it before you can use the ‘Move One’ card. This is because the ‘Genesis Set’ is stuck to the floor—it’s so heavy it can’t be moved, and nothing can go under it!

14. Can I use "Move One" to slide a set underneath a "Safe Wallet"?

No. Once you put a Safe Wallet on a pile, it’s like a giant heavy lid that is locked shut. You can’t slide anything under that lid. If you want to use your Move One card to hide a new set, you need to have a big enough stack of at least two new sets sitting on top of that Safe Wallet first!”.

15. Can I use a "Utility Token" to defend my own set?

Yes. The Utility Token is an Attack and Defense card designed to help you in both ways. While it forces a “Double Defense” when you are the aggressor, you can play it to block a standard hack initiated by someone else(Note: When played in defense, the attacker must play 2 extra cards to continue the attack).

16. What happens if I play a "Safe Wallet" on a set that was already hacked?

A Safe Wallet only protects the cards currently beneath it at the moment it is played. If an opponent has already successfully stolen a set and placed it in their own vault, you cannot use a Safe Wallet to “reclaim” or protect it retroactively. You must play the Safe Wallet on your own turn to lock down your current top stack.

17. Can a "Hacker Attack" bypass a "Safe Wallet"?

No. The Safe Wallet is an absolute physical barrier. Once a Safe Wallet card is placed on a stack, that stack is considered “Offline” and is completely immune to Hacker Attack cards, standard matching hacks, and even Utility Tokens.

18. Does "Move One" count as my entire action for the turn?

Yes. Moving a stack to a different position in your vault is a significant strategic maneuver and consumes your one allowed action for that turn. You cannot “Move One” and “Form a Set” in the same turn.

19. Can I use "Move One" to move my "Genesis Set" Player Pile “First Set”?

No. The Genesis Rule states that your very first set is permanent and must remain at the very bottom of your vault as your foundation. “Move One” can only be used to reorder subsequent sets played on top of the Genesis Set.
