Virtual coins and guide scope
This independent bf5 guide explains its own Column No 010 browser demo. No outside operator, official address, licence, app or affiliation has been verified here. The name alone does not establish an external business identity. Coins have no cash value. There is no deposit, login or withdrawal flow.
Starting and banking a round
Select a stake of 10, 20, 50, 100 or 200 virtual coins and 3, 4 or 5 mines. Defaults are stake 20 and 3 mines. Starting deducts one whole stake. Stake, mine count, refill and starting another round remain locked during play. Eligible cells and, after a safe reveal, Bank current quote remain available. Sound can be toggled. There is no auto queue or random-cell button. Gross quote = 0.96 × captured stake × initial allowed-board count ÷ current compatible-board count. Before any reveal the quote is 96% of the stake, but banking is unavailable. A safe reveal can increase the quote or leave it unchanged if no boards are eliminated. A mine ends the round with zero gross return. Gross includes the stake; subtract it to calculate net profit.
Disabled cells and automatic endings
Bank current quote is available after at least one safe reveal. The game automatically banks after all safe cells are opened or no eligible covered cell remains. Already opened and certainly mined cells are disabled. A cell is also disabled if its prospective safe quote exceeds 1,000 times the stake; equality is allowed. The largest raw multipliers for 3, 4 and 5 mines are 138.24, 387.84 and 883.2, so that cap does not exclude an otherwise possible safe transition in these board sets.
Whole coins and stored carry
A new wallet starts with 1,000 virtual coins. Balance and fractional carry are stored in browser localStorage, including zero balance. Settlement adds raw gross return to previous carry, credits whole coins and saves the fractional remainder. A mine’s zero gross return leaves previous carry unchanged. While idle below 10, manually restoring sets the balance to 1,000; it does not add 1,000 and preserves carry.
Reloading and browser data
Reloading an unfinished round loses its state. Its stake remains deducted; there is no payout, refund or resumed round. Saved balance and carry remain, while controls return to stake 20 and 3 mines. Clearing cached files can leave localStorage intact. Removing this site’s stored data may remove wallet values. The pages declare Google Fonts and Statinside counter 44: https://statinside.com/counter.js and the noscript image https://statinside.com/pixel.png?id=44. External font and counter requests may occur. These declarations do not establish an exhaustive record of actual requests or processing. Local storage is a wallet behavior, not a guarantee about all site processing.
Audience and return limits
This guide and demo are intended for adults aged 18 or over. That policy does not verify a visitor’s age or establish local legality. Virtual coins have no cash value and the demo has no login, deposit or withdrawal flow. The exact expected unrounded gross return is 96% of the stake for the tested stopping policies. It is not a 96% winning probability or a promised player or session result. Saved simulations are sample observations and can differ from that expectation. The demo itself draws actual random boards within the allowed set; its outcomes are not simulation statistics or outside casino results.
Frequently asked questions
Can I withdraw the coins?
No. Virtual coins have no cash value and the demo has no payment or withdrawal flow.
Does restoring add 1,000 coins?
No. While idle below 10, manual restoration sets the balance to 1,000 and preserves carry.
Can I resume after reloading?
No. An unfinished round ends without payout, refund or resume, and its stake remains deducted.
