\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

First of all, we hasten to congratulate the winners of our [**Play to Airdrop Bounty Tournament**](https://discord.com/channels/1036975591322304552/1103007119113994331/1213141736067432468) and inform you that your prize loot boxes have been sent to your gaming address. Hurry up to open them and find out what awaits you inside!\
\
We also sent **100 bonus Baitcoins** as a gift for your attention to the project and its joint improvement.

### Fixed:

\---

### Updated:

* ***Fight against piracy!***\
  The bigger the project gets, the more attention it attracts. Recently, the development team has seen a lot of exploit attempts, for which we had to ban users who maliciously attempted them. Remember, by breaking the rules of the project, you first of all break the economy and worsen the gameplay for the rest of the community. Let's improve the project together: if you find an exploit, please report it to the development team and receive a reward. All recorded violations of community rules and abuse of the system will be punishable by a lifetime ban.
* ***Back to basics:***\
  With the announcement of buyback system launch, we are restoring the natural order and starting from less to more. Fishing now begins in the shallow waters of the lake. The more experience you gain, the wider the water expanses open up for you. Don't worry, all the river trophies you catch will remain with you - get to level 20 and decide what collection you want to... collect!

### Added:

* ***A buy-back collections system:***\
  The news doesn't end there! The latest update added a teaser for the collection buyback system. Remember that the mechanic will only become available after the Phase I of the NFT drop sells out. [You can learn more in our wiki.](https://fortune-pike.gitbook.io/fortune-pike/singleplayer/almanac/collection-buy-back-system)

* ***NFT Avatar Claiming:***\

We've encountered an unexpected challenge recently and wanted to share with you both what happened and how we've addressed it.

### Fixed:

Despite these hurdles, we've managed to roll out several updates to enhance your gaming experience:

* ***Updated Singleplayer Counter Algorithm:***\
  We've refined the counting mechanism for a smoother singleplayer journey.
* ***Fish Collections in the Almanac:***

  Fish are now organized into collections, making it easier to track your catches.

  Daily bonus notifications are now consolidated into a single, pinned message at the top of your list.

### Added:

  We've added the name of the fish to the header of its card, so you know exactly what you've hooked.
