**Final2/11/2023 Update**: We now have our own **DISCORD SERVER**. Join us for the latest information and engage with the community at [https://discord.gg/AeH2GTwkF5](https://discord.gg/AeH2GTwkF5) ALThere had been a month-long hiatus due to the CF name change magic (and my own laziness oops), but everything has been fixed now :D! However, I know a lot of people have gone inactive due to the month-long market closure, so I am hoping to **relaunching StonksCF** in the near future with some new mechanisms (dividends, automatic algorithm trading, etc.). Let me know if you have any ideas! In the meantime, feel free to continue exploiting the way-over-inflated economy and embrace your inner capitalism >:D↵

Greetings Fellow CodeForces users!↵
↵
I am proud to introduce my latest project, [CF Stonks](https://codetiger.me/project/StonksCF) (aka StonksCF), which is a virtual stock market based on your CodeForces rating.↵
↵
↵
↵
Have you ever been thrilled by the ups and downs of CodeForces ratings? If so, you will love this project :D. On the website, you will automatically receive $200$ stocks of your own account (with the rest of the $800$ being sold on the market) and $10,000$ in cash upon registration. The price of each stock is based on your rating, so the higher the rating, the higher the price of a stock is. Furthermore, since crossing (or sometimes dropping) into a new division is so exhilarating, we aim to capture that excitement and give a $20$% boost between the ranks. The exact formula is $price = 1.2^{rank} \cdot rating$.↵
↵
While the market is open (closed during contests), you can sell/buy other people's stock. Even though this is just a game, you can use the website as a source of motivation since people depend on you to not lose money 0_0.↵
↵
So what are you waiting for? Try to become the wealthiest man on the website! More details on the game mechanics can be found on the [about page](https://codetiger.me/project/StonksCF/about.html)↵
↵
<spoiler summary="Steps to get started">↵
1. Temporarily change your codeforces' first name to "StonksCF-verify" (Remember to change it back once you're done cause other people may take control of your account)↵
2. Register with your CodeForces handle on the [Register page](https://codetiger.me/project/StonksCF/register.html)↵
3. Invest in stocks and profit!↵
