Creating an exchange within Roblox

So at the moment, I’m making what I think is a pretty interesting game. Before I release it and finalize it, I decided to talk to you about the game to get your opinion and advice.

What the game is about
If you’ve ever studied cryptocurrency, you’ll have to understand the idea. So in a nutshell. Let’s assume this situation, a normal player enters the game, and he sees the rate and the market where players sell in-game currency for robux (works the same as in pls donate), the player, for example, buys from one of the player currency, so the player gets the currency and the seller 60% robux (30% Roblox takes, 10% me). Then the player takes and puts this currency for a large price, then he leaves the game, and when the next day comes in he has already bought this currency, so with proper resource management players can earn on this.

The interface will look like in typical exchanges, but under Roblox, it is more cartoonish and not so professional.

And yes of course the player will be able to get currency for free, by so-called mining. Here we are still thinking about the options of mining, or the player will just click and get a little bit and so for a bunch of hours he will get the currency. Or the player will mine and with a chance to get different currencies and thus if he is very lucky he will get a rare currency and sell it for a lot.

So here is in brief, if you want to know more write with pleasure I will explain

Questions and discussion
So I’d like to talk to you about a variety of topics.
For example, whether it will be popular, whether players will be able to make money on it, how do you like the idea, how Roblox will treat such an idea, and just tell me your opinion I’d love to hear it. In short, write, thank you)

P.S. And yes if you are a scripter, manager, or gui designer write in discord:

We can work together on the project (payment is provided, but do not expect thousands of dollars)

What you’re doing here is in a grey area in Roblox’s terms. It could be considered Robux gambling so I’d be very careful if you go through with this. From the Roblox Community Standards under ‘Illegal and Regulated Goods and Activities’:

However, no real money, Robux, or in-experience items of value may be exchanged in connection with any gambling activities. We also require that the odds of winning be fair and clearly disclosed to the user prior to playing.


I’m also skeptical about how you’re approaching currency mining.

idk how you’re taking the approach for mining, but you cannot just give away free currency, otherwise your currency’s value will collapse (no one will want to sink robux into it). For crypto currencies, mining is required to process transactions. When you mine crypto, your computer is processing transactions, and if your computer successfully processes a transaction, you’re awarded with a small % of the transaction.

A player clicking a button or just being in the server isn’t required to process transactions and therefore you’re giving them free currency.

However, I hope your project goes well for you.

It sounds very interesting honestly. It feels like gambling though because there’s a market that determines whether the price goes up or down.

@TreeBen77 has got a way more detailed breakdown and I’d suggest listening to their advice

as treeben77 has said, this is literally gambling. This can get your game banned. Stuff like this shouldn’t be on a kids-adult platform.

basically gambling your time… yeah… Not sure if anyone would play this for hours.
